Help: good place to take a call in midtown near Bryant Park area? Left office keys at home, and am already on my way there 😰

This is my first job in a large corporate company, and I’m trying to gauge how long it normally takes to move from entry level to another internal position in the insurance industry. I have been applying internally for a year now and I am wondering if this is normal or if my company is just slow? I am a top performer, with great metrics, and I have some wonderful connections I’ve made who support me. I just can’t seem to move up. How long did it take you to move up? How many tries did it take?

Any clinical reporting folks on here? What type of company are you at and how are you liking it? I provide reporting services in an academic hospital medicine division at a state institution. Reports are mostly performance based and quality improvement (ex. discharge by 10am, length of stay, 30 day readmission, census on Medicine teams at the hospital, etc.) I would love to hear who you support!

Why are sibling relationships so complicated? We live in the same city. 23M w 21M bro in same city. We’ve always clashed, got closer in 2016-2019, then in covid started fighting and not being close. 2021 summer we got into some bad fights where he said some hurtful things that made me kind of hold a grudge until our fight in September. 2022 we’ve gotten a lot closer and only minimally clashed but still even tho we share personal things sometimes and have more mutual respect, cont

I heard People in Advisory received performance bonus? True? And how much by level?

Does anyone really, really love their job? Or do you just do it to pay bills and get to the weekend? I'm curious how many people actually truly love what they do

I have over 20,000 unread emails in my inbox.

Sometimes I don't uphold the company mission 😱

I’m 30. My friends’ weddings are piling up and I’m just... still very much single. Feel like it’s acceptable in NYC but also sorta depressing. Dating is hard.

I think I have ADHD. I’m middle-aged. This has never been a problem for me before, but I’ve taken several screening tests and I’m scoring really high. What do I do?

I’m tired of the arrogance and male techno-superiority. Where are the humans with feelings, vulnerability, joy in all of this?

Good lord this open space is insufferable

Anyone else cursed with desperately wanting someone to tell you what to do to get better, but knowing that you would never listen?

I am not ok.

Mr. Manager is posting again y'all 🤡

What’s the best/most effective message you’ve gotten from a stranger wanting to network on LinkedIn? The worst?

I only focus (obsess) on the bad parts of my review, even though the rest was glowing. Why?!

It makes me intensely uncomfortable when I hear people who should know better misusing the word “myself.” As in “please cc Kate and myself on your email.”

There is someone in senior leadership who consistently has a target on someone’s back. They pressure their reports and team members to complain to HR about said target until action is taken. Cont’d

How many people have hooked up with someone on their team? Is it that common?

The mornings are when I’m most productive and it never fails.. my one friend/coworker comes over to talk to me about meaningless BS every time i start getting momentum. Nice guy.. but leave me alone.

I left my job without having anything else lined up otherwise I would have had a mental breakdown. I’m not even in that great of a financial place, but it was my job or my sanity. I know at least three other people who, in the past few months, have left with nothing lined up. I feel like it’s something we need to be talking more about. This isn’t normal for people to be doing this right?

Getting sober has made me realize how bad my boss really is.

I don’t get paid to write advertising. I get paid to sit through meetings like these. Kill me.

Parents - do any of you truly regret having kids?
