What's a nice restaurant to take relatives to when they're in the city visiting? Would like something nice but not over-the-top fancy.

Nice cup of flavia at the office on a Sunday. Name a better feeling... I’ll wait

Hi!

Today I read the op-ed in LA Weekly by the Preux and Proper owner, Josh Kopel. When this group started, it was a dream of mine to meet you while enjoying a drink or a meal and build a community of people who enjoy the city and wanted to explore its food. It’s surreal to think that we have been in lockdown for this long. I know many restaurants may be struggling and if you have a favorite, a local gem, please share with us.

I have an appointment to get lip fillers for the first time. I want natural looking results, nothing too big. I know it takes time to settle, but will I be able to go to work the next day without it being noticeable?

When a role says “Remote, LOCATION” on the job description, must you live in that LOCATION and work remotely or does it mean that your home office will be that LOCATION?

I have been doing commercial freelance photography work for over a year and a half, and slowly but surely the budgets are getting bigger and the work is more consistent. How do I know when it’s time to approach artist reps? Do I even need an artist rep?
What are your experiences with artist reps?
Thank you for the advice in advance :)

TGIF. Can I get an Amen?! 🍻🎉

Our senior creative leadership keep talking about winning Cannes Lions and D&AD pencils but none of them have actually won any since 2007 (that’s 14 years 😭 ) and between all three of them they’ve never won more than a couple of silvers, a couple of bronzes and a couple of in-books (that’s with a combined experience of over 60 years 😭). They have no clue 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭. Tell me something about your agency so that I can feel better about the hell-hole I find myself in🙏

Favorite books on leadership styles and mindset training?

Are company time charge audits routine? I only charge what I work but wondering if I should be concerned

I didn't apply for a job that would have set me up for the future in the government. I wouldn't have to worry about money or future jobs. My boss had just given me a small pay rise and talked up the future and so I felt good. I now severely regret not applying for the job and cannot stop thinking about it to the point of insomnia and depression. I even contacted the employer but too late. It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(

Interviewed recently with @VillageMD. Anyone have any insight about the remote Medical assistant positions? Preferably someone who does or did work in that type of position with this company. How was the workload? How much time is usually spent on the phone answering calls?

Someone I’ve started seeing uses they/them pronouns. I’m trying my best but still feel like I make mistakes. When I want to address them is it ok to say how are you or should I say how are they?

Living in NJ and may be able to choose NYC as my home office. People who live in NJ can choose NJ / NYC office, which one did you choose?

NJ office: no NYC tax, don't have to file 2 state return. Live in NJ so auto assigned to NJ office currently.

NYC office: NYC tax on paycheck, easier commute, possibly higher pay?

Are there any flexi benefits in the payroll management system to get the tax exemptions in BA Continuum?

Any F in Minnesota?

Signed up for a matchmaking service a couple months ago after getting tired of the apps. And while I’ve been underwhelmed with their process so far, I finally have my first match date this weekend. Haven’t been on a date since pre-pandemic. And never been on a true blind date like this. Wish me luck.

Ciao! I am interested in creating a supper club in LA where people can meet and interact through the love for food. Interested? More info on IG as raguandmosh

Anyone interested in getting together for an outdoor patio/rooftop dinner (with all proper safety protocols) in the next couple of weeks?

Attended a few Disco Dining events last year. They’re sporadic but interesting.

Hi! Sharing this bowl in a few threads to gain some interest.

😭 tonight was supposed to be reservations at n/naka for my birthday 😭

Anyone else think you're better off going to a restaurant than a grocery store? Went out for dinner the other night and there wasn't a soul in the place. No waiting either. e10 DT gets a thumbs up

President Thai in Pasadena.

WOW!!

Gives some of the Thai Town joints a run for their money! Highly, highly recommend.

Hi everyone! Let's get together for a meal and a Meetup!

Hi everyone! Thank you for indulging me in this idea. I’m planning to send out a survey tomorrow to see what/when/where is the best time to do a meet up. I’m shooting for mid-March. V excited!

Spouse made reservations for my birthday at n/Naka that will probably be cancelled due to the LA County news about extending stay-at-home 😭😷

With things as they are, anybody have favorite delivery or pick-up spots for dinners? Cooking is fun but starting to get repetitive!

Hi everyone! Gonna send our first meet up invite later tonight. I’m finalizing arrangements with the restaurant. Stay tuned!

Anyone know of K bbq “happy hours” or other cheap but good bbq options in Ktown +/- 1 neighborhood? They have them in The Bay but want to find one here.

Anyone else avoiding dining out now because of the virus?

The Burrow in DTLA makes a stellar sandwich. One of the few places I've seen that imports jamon iberico. Very cool lounge, tucked away in a basement with no cell service, to enjoy a drink in peace at.

Best Viet/pho spots? I had found my own gem before moving from SF Bay area, but now need a new watering hole. Only place I have been is Little Sister. Very good but not sure pho is their specialty
