Working moms - what is your efficient approach to week night dinners? I WFH at 5p comes, laptop closes and I need to get dinner on the table in 30 minutes. What are some quick, healthy, tasty options?

Two teenagers. Both starting (remote) school in the morning.

As is typical for interactions with teens, I feel like speaking with them about their upcoming school year is as enjoyable as running head-first into a brick wall.

I'm a new, working and commuting mama ISO your opinion. Would you rather: commute 3-4 hours a day x 3 days/week but get to wfh 2x/week OR take a job 25 mins away but is less likely to allow wfh?

Mamas, do you unswaddle your baby when feeding them at night? My baby is 6 weeks old and I have been unswaddle her to feed her at night then reswaddle her. However I feel like I wake her up big time by unswaddling her and it takes so long to rock her back to sleep afterwards and I’ve been so exhausted. What works for you?

I have 3 young kids and am realizing it is hard to sustain friendships with those that don’t have kids. Received a very upset note from a friend saying she feels neglected and that I don’t care about her. To be honest, it has always been a demanding relationship and we have 8 years of friendship but it’s hard to connect on a deeper level on anything that doesn’t revolve around drinking, shopping, travel so I have been letting it fade. I feel bad but is it normal once you have kids?

Need a hug! Afraid of losing my job because I have Covid again!!! I had to go back to work after being away 8 years caring for my mother with dementia. I am an only child and my husband had a good job. He just left me after being together since we were 17. Took all the money and ran. I can’t afford a decent divorce attorney. His mummy is paying for his. Trying to afford a retainer and I get sick in my first 30 days of work!!! Unpaid!!! Plus having to do my own divorce case in all my spare time 🤦🏻‍♀️

Any “boomerang” attorneys out there that have returned to remote NYC law firm roles after being in-house for many years? 2001 grad, firms are interested, but cagey about comp. Should be on par with senior associates IMO b/c can bill you out at those rates, are non-partner track roles, and you can handle matters solo and be client facing. No/low overhead b/c working remotely. Thanks for any data points! Also, are you happy you returned to a law firm or do you regret the decision?

It’s difficult to motivate associates to come to the office. Are there any good solutions beyond more perks / free stuff? Or is the genie out of the bottle and it’s too late to remedy?

My best friend’s 10 year old daughter just got diagnosed with scoliosis. She is divorced and has always said her ex was a great father. Since the divorce a few years ago, she’s been more and more negative towards him now that he is moving on a remarried, having a kid etc. I sympathize and try to keep her positive but she’s constantly complaining and feeling like the victim about everything. She refuses to get a therapist. I told her it won’t be the worst thing if

Hey bowl leader I will take over how do I DM you?

hi everyone! I’m making a tiktok account focused on personal finance education. I’m a female gen z hoping to reach the same demographic since women on average feel less comfortable with investing and discussing finances than men.

what are some things you would like to learn about/wish you had known when you were younger about personal finance?

Received an offer from Deloitte as a consultant at $115k, $10k sign on bonus, 12% annual bonus. About 6.5 yrs out of college working full time as a consultant since. This is at best a flat move both in role and comp. recruiter said that pay, sign on, and target bonus are max and there is no room to negotiate up…Essentially take it or leave it. Does that sound accurate? Should I ask to come in at senior consultant?

Who’s dealing with an ACD team that thinks they’re ready to be CDs but they’re at least 18 months away from that title—but they’re in need of a lot of training?

Should I get a CPA for Transaction Due Diligence?
I’m a new grad working in FDD and I’m trying to decide if becoming a CPA is worth it. I do not plan on staying in accounting in the future. I’m more interested in strategy work. I certainly do not want to do Audit. Would you recommend getting the CPA considering my career aspirations? Do you think it’s worth it? If not, what is the best way to use my time efficiently?

Hi All,

How good is Accenture in matching counter offers for existing employees.

Here’s my short background, my current ctc is 13.5 fixed (7 YOE, level 10) in Accenture and got an offer from cts for 23fixed.

Im a crucial resource in Accenture, can i hope Accenture matches the counter offer for my yoe? Also, can I consider my manager word if they say that they will revise in next 3 or 6 mnths?

Thank you!

I got an offer from WilliamsMarston 100K base and 30% annual bonus based on 45-50 hour weeks (not 45-50 hours billed). I’m a recently promoted S1 in audit making 93K. Should I take it? Is WilliamsMarston any good? Should I stay for a busy season as senior?

Hi moms..I am 38 but will be 39 when third kid comes along. The other two are 8 and 17 months. Finally found a job I like and am good at. We were officially done having kids after number 2 but this sudden surprise happened. I am 11 weeks and still can't get excited about this. I just never enjoyed the new born phase and pregnancy. I am also sad about being the old mom in the playground..I know not important but feel embarrassed about having a surprise at 39. Can anyone relate?

I get 3-5 months MAT leave and I’m debating if I take the full 5 or stick to 3. I’m WFH but also not sure how I’ll feel . This will be baby 2 and I have a 3yo at home. Need advice

Hi moms!! Getting induced tonight with my first… so excited, nervous and a little terrified! Would love to hear any advice you have!

(FWIW, I’m 41+3 so we’ve waited as long as we can to try to let things happen naturally…)

Does anyone not feel comfortable leaving their kid alone with either parents or in laws due to their carelessness? How do deal with them constantly asking for your kid to sleep over at their house?

Whats your eating schedule for your toddler? My 3.5 year old eats breakfast about 8, lunch 11:30/12, snack 3, dinner 5…. But he is grumpy often now so maybe he is still hungry? Curious to know how much or what time yours eat!

Seeing so many posts about night nurses. Where and how do you find them and what’s the average rate ? Sleepless mama here looking for some support

For those that are still on mat leave- what time do you start and end your day? I want to try and fit in working out, but I’m so tired all the time… also, if you have a toddler at home- are you breaking up the day so there are specific times for specific activities? Or is it just a free for all, like what I currently have?

New to Fishbowl! So glad I found this!! Cheers and Salutations to Everyone! Enjoy Your Day Always!!!❤️🙏💯
