I’ve found this to be the case with men of all races. The answer is because they’re idiots.

I’ve also had this issue with female managers, sadly...

Because business is about relationships and I find that women tend focus too much on being perfect at their jobs rather than “bro-ing it up” with their coworkers - that’s why mediocre men get so far.

I’ve been struggling with this for years! Right now, the darlings of our department are two white men who keep losing pitches and do mediocre work. My accomplishments dwarf theirs on every level. I “bro” it up, have great relationships, but it never changes.

I just got a job offer for an Entry Level Software Engineer at Boeing in Saint Louis. The salary is $82,000 with an $8,000 sign on bonus.

If so, how would I go about doing that? Thanks!

Had someone lateral into our firm as a fifth year (soon to be sixth). They were kind of a retool and went from small law to the firm I’m at. They are still learning a lot of basic stuff, and I think it’s weird that the firm hired someone at that level as a retool. They sometimes ask me for help with stuff, but I’m just getting annoyed at this point. Can I just say “no” since they’re about to be a mid/senior associate who should know all of this?

What are some strategies or tactics you have developed which are very successful in small markets (I'm talking SUPER small)? I feel like I've thrown all my darts and some markets still can't find talent.

Some things I've tried, here in Canada:

- non-profit/employment centers
- indeed headunting
- getting field/hiring managers to post around town
- getting on local FB groups
- local schools if there are any
- physical posters
- newspaper/old media (not great)

Ideas needed 😭

My husband just sent in 150$ to his cousin, whose friend who was in need.

It’s not the amount he sent (I would have preferred 50$). But it’s the fact that he didn’t consult me in the amount. He apologized but I am now wondering if I am too cheap.
