Would it bother you if you felt like your Uber driver was listening to your conversations? Today a girl talked to her friend for a 40-minute ride about how she felt bad about sleeping with her sisters boyfriend, but didn't know how to end it after a YEAR. I think sometimes people forget I'm there, but I'm in the front seat like this.

Do people tend to remain close to their siblings after marriage/ getting into a serious relationship? Or does life tend to take over and losing touch is somewhat normal?

Has anyone had the experience where they travelled home for the weeks around Christmas but wound up having tension with family because you had to stay logged on all the time and couldn’t spend much time with them?

Ok ok plot twist: he’ll propose to Madison and she’ll say NO! Cause she realized how different they truly are... then he goes after Hannah cause his mom told him she was an angel sent from above 😂 🤦🏻‍♀️

Any recommendations for books for desi parents ? Politics , economics, world order , self help

How do single folks (living with roommates) in San Francisco/NYC areas arrange for their parents’ stay with them, when they are visiting from home countries? Want to have my retired parents come and stay with me in 2022 for 2-3 months and looking for creative ideas to make their stay comfortable. Thank you :)

Do you think using “him/her” for “he/she” (ex: “her is playing” “him not here yet”) is something that kids usually grow out of? Or does it need direct intervention? I have 2 students who exhibit this error, who otherwise should be dismissed. Normally I’d just keep them on and work on it alongside other goals, but they don’t have any other goals, and with COVID, and my upcoming maternity leave in March, a more compact caseload would be advantageous.

Where are the moms on this app? I want kids and I’m planning for the future. How do you schedule for child care/ who is your child care provider? Do you use day care, a nanny, a family member who lives with you or close by? And roughly how much do spend on child care per month?

people who broke up after a long, live-in relationship - how did your friends react? neighbors? did you move buildings/neighborhoods/cities? i’m just so hung up about this…

I have a young student with CVI and extremely limited mobility. She is able to vocalize but not speak. However, I’ve seen her response and mannerisms change (positively) in the presence of parents and siblings which leads me to believe that she is cognizant enough to possible use a communication device. However, I don’t even know where to start with researching the best one for her. Any suggestions?

Seattle here. I had a 18 month stint of sobriety about 6 years ago. Fell off and now I'm slippin once again. I know being a dry drunk does not work for me. Glad this group is here. Time to re-make friends with Bill.

Officially the last single person in my family. Feels so good and people are so nosy about everyone’s personal life that I skipped the big celebrations.

To experience a rich life, one’s best investment is in that which even those with significant monetary wealth won’t be able to purchase at any price…. Relationships , health, and learning

Going to attend my MBA in a top b school soon but I feel absolutely anxious and scared. I havent socialized in the past 2 yrs and Im just really overwhelmed

Hi everyone. This is probably not the best place to post this but searching for options everywhere right now. My mom is in an abusive living situation with the father of my siblings and I’m trying to find a place for her live. I live in DC and she has a stable job in Atl so living with me is not an option. She is unable to get an apartment due to poor credit and rental history. I’m willing to handle her rent, etc. If anyone is renting out a space or aware of someone who is please lmk.

I ended my relationship of 6 years about 3 months ago bc he said he might regret not having kids later down the line. we were always on the fence but I’m leaning towards no. It hurts so much having to walk away from an otherwise perfect relationship. Wish this was easier…

Feeling like my life is racing by being on the road 20 years, and saddens me that when I get home tonight my SO leaves on a business trip.

I've been working remotely for the past two years, and it's been great. I love working from home and being able to watch my kids grow up through their eyes as they play around me. But sometimes, when you're in this kind of situation, it's hard to know what to talk about with your coworkers.

Am I tripping? Everyone loves calling my daughter (2 months) "lil chocolate drop" or "look at all that chocolate". I love my daughter's complexion, not only because it's mine, but because it's beautiful. However, I can't help but feeling like ppl "other" or make it weird by avoiding saying dark. Calling her dark is acceptable and appreciated. I know "chocolate" comes from a place of affection, but I just can't embrace it 💯.

My husband quit his very well-paying job in February to become a freelancer. I was fully supportive of this move because he was miserable at his job. He is hustling and trying to find work but it is slow. We are depleting our savings and I am stressed about our financial health and feel like retirement is getting pushed further out. I am struggling not to feel resentful. I don’t want to push him back into a career he hates but also feel like part of being an adult is making hard decisions.

Any other remote first years incredibly lonely? I have friends and family (single) but can pretty much only see them during the weekends, which go by way too quickly. Not much of a life….

Hi

Has anyone planned a destination wedding in Portugal before? Did you use a wedding planning company? Any recommendations? How much did it cost?

We’re looking to do a wedding reception (but will get married officially in a NYC courthouse first) for about 80 guests in fall 2022 with live music, open bar, family style dining, overlooking the ocean (but not on the beach).

Not sure where to start - it’s information overload on google so looking for any recommendations!

Hi Fishes,

I have 3 YOE, got offered 10.5 LPA in pwc. I had asked for a higher package as I have a counter offer of 12 LPA, the HR came up with some logic of variables, performance pay etc and gave me the offer. I have been offered a role in Data Analytics dept ( SAP tech stack).

I have another offer from msg of 13 LPA, could you help me what should I choose. I have pwc in my mind just because it's a big 4 and I'm looking for such exposure.

I wish admin utilized Tier 1 supports with teachers. Smiles, appreciations and acknowledging ones efforts would do a great deal to boost morale and climate. I just don’t understand what that is so hard to do.

Are companies you left likely or less likely to rehire you on a different team?

I completed my first round interview with wipro. I belive I didn't perform well at interview and left interview in middle as my manager in current company ringing phone constantly . But suprisingly after a week I got call from recruiter stating 1st interview is cleared and there is a HR round without any L2 round. And HR round was also done package was decided and recruiter sent some links for bgv and said offer gonna be released in next week. Is this a clean process or should I suspect?

🚀BNY current attrition rate is lower than the industry average and the rate of BNY ‘returnees’ [employees who return after shifting jobs] has also been encouraging.

Is this true? If yes, Anyone knows reason behind it ?

"we don't consider your external experience" (during a discussion about promotions) when I was actually hired on due to external experience...

“I feel like I’m the stupidest person here”
“You are not stupid. You literally work at one of the top consulting firms in the world”
“I literally got a 6% in one exam during undergrad”
“Well damn I guess you are stupid”

Friday the CEO sends out an email proudly proclaiming that the company made $22 billion last year.
Two hours later I am told on our team meeting that the bonus/raise pool is down from last year.
I just have no words.

Is it a common practice to double deploy consultants ? I.e., bill them 8 hours to client 1 and 2-3 hours at client 2? And do you do that with/without clients knowledge and consent?

“What will the account think?”
“We’ll burn that bridge when we get to it.”

Kelp. You know, its like the new kale.

Overheard in an integration meeting: “yes, we have a prison strategy."

I’m way in over my head in my new job and I think I might be on the way out. What are some signs that you might be let go or transferred out?

Shared with me from a former colleague, when he spoke privately to our CD who calls the shots on all our web projects, (my area of expertise) he admitted to having "no new web knowledge since 1997."

"...likely goes without saying, but obviously we can't..."

Translation: "I know it's not my place to say (and everyone knows it) and we'll really have to work hard to get this done (and everyone knows it). But I want to be on record as being against it before there's any whiff of complication or controversy—and before the client has an opportunity to be for or against anything."

Ah... teamwork.

“ I know I’m not the greatest creative here, but I NEVER want another bag of dog sh!t placed on my desk again please” ...it was the please that made me laugh when I heard it.
