Woke up from a dream where my grandma had passed away before my grandpa and was trying to grapple with his medical care. Ended up having to sell their home and put him in a home because I couldn't get any help from my family.

Anyone else have these kinds of super realistic dreams? If so, what was it about?

Does anybody have ideas on how to use 2 weeks of vacation during covid? Can’t visit family without international travel, most friends are with their family/SOs and social distancing. Pto is expiring so it’s use it or lose it. Im in NYC. Thank you!

This bowl has been quiet and I see partners commenting on odd posts around fishbowl so I figure you need more fodder: partners, did any of you have parents that travelled as much as you do?

I’m referencing a cell (numeric) to a text cell. Is there a way to format that number to include commas? See example in comments.

Really sucks how unfair life can be

I tripped over my blanket and hit the floor so hard 🫠. My neighbors probably hate me. That’s my confession.

more of a rant than a confession but i did not realize there was a bowl limit on this app and i’m unhappy about it >:( !

Ladies, what's the funniest pickup line you ever be approached with?

This guy Elon is hilarious. Trolls everyone, sleeps with people's wives.
When I grow up I wanna be just like him.
Even roasting other billionaires like Bezos and Gates.
I always thought to reach to the top you'd have to act a certain way, but this guy simply does what he wants and does not care.

So who is this SEI and why is everybody arguing with him/her? 😂

I confess that I was one of those annoying kids in AOL chat rooms back in the late 90s. I also confess this bowl feels just like those chat rooms back on the day. I also confess I still enjoy stirring the pot here with a chaotic neutral approach.

I think I might get a divorce

On the topic of intimacy with partners… I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years and the past year his libido has dropped to zero. Mostly due to work stress (he says). Whenever I try to initiate, he always shuts me down and says he’s not in the mood. I even touch him and he gets hard but stops me as soon as I try to unzip him. We went from once a week to maybe once a quarter.

I’ve talked to him about it and he says I should take care of myself. So frustrated. 😭😭

Been with my GF since college and we recently hit the 4 year mark. 1-2 years into our relationship I found out she had instances of micro-cheating (flirting with guys, talking to ex’s etc - but nothing physical) and we addressed it. To her credit and my knowledge, she’s been apologetic and great at respecting boundaries since, but I still feel the pain from her actions years ago (and have talked to her about it). Feeling lost about whether to just leave or to try and work things out

Hope everyone has a great Friday!

Why do people try to take credit for regular phrases?
Someone just said “I call it fluff”
Oh really, YOU call it that.
Why do people pull the “I call it …” card?!

My career goal isn’t to make it to MBB or a unicorn or FAANG. It’s to feel fulfilled and challenged as I progress. I can’t be the only one that isn’t title or company chasing.

Is it bad luck to pawn a promise ring?

I still think one of the dumbest things about our society is that we distinguish women’s relationship status with Ms. vs Mrs., but men are all Mr… When are we going to stop defining women by marriage?

I’ve been having a difficult time selling at my company. I have a strong background in metal sales, but took a chance in residential sales right before inflation. My employer promised reimbursement for use of personal devices, which hasn’t happened, health care which he back tracked and made reference to but has not paid, I found out they’re looking for a new rep making the same false promises. Other than looking for other employment, do I have any alternatives to hold them accountable?

How do you know if you’re attractive?
