Zanzibar vs Flimores. Which one is the best for a fun boys' night out in Toronto? Or any other recommendations?

Gonna be in Denver for a couple of days in mid-July, anyone down to play tour guide? Can promise flirty conversation + cocktails at the very least…perhaps more if the vibe feel right. 30 M, tall and, dare I say, handsome…in case that matters 😊

Ladies of fishbowl, question. Girl says she wants to get drinks as friends, but is persistent in getting your number to text. Overthinking or is there something behind this? I’m also good friends with her current landlord/roommate.

M here.

Anyone for catch up and explore good places evening or tomorrow?

A question to all the men in here, what are your age criteria for dating/serious relationships? Is it true that 30+ females have it much harder than females in their 20ties?

How to meet new people once in the city? I’m a guy (26) if that changes anything

Lockdown makes it hard to date

FML. I’ve been dating someone for 8 months and have been having doubts about the longevity of the relationship. This week he tells me he is thinking about leaving our city and working remotely. Even though I was already thinking about ending it, this hurts. I know I’m being childish - being rejected by someone who I was planning to reject! And I know he isn’t the right guy for me in the long term. So why does this hurt?! 😭😭😭

Any tips for hard launching partners on social media? For context, I’ve (Indian American female) been dating my white American boyfriend for 3 years and we just got engaged after two years of convincing my parents. They are very happy and excited now, but I’m scared shitless about being ostracized / judged by my extended family and Indian community in the US once I “let the cat out of the bag” on the engagement news. I want to be proud and confident about this but could use some moral support.

Any good female pgs in Green Glen layout, bellandur. Looking for single occupancy (under 15k) with a gym in vicinity. TIA

I know HR says you should report it but I’m paranoid that if I report a colleague that’s been harassing me, I’ll be viewed as a rat. (Most guys are immature/harmless but he’s actually being malicious)

35 Female NYC, 🥳

POLL: how many FaceTime dates have you been on during quarantine?

Hey

Male here,

Anyone up for weekend catchup and drive ...female preferred ;)

I find dating apps to be unhealthy to an extent. If a minor inconvenience occurs, it's simple to move on to the next one and the cycle repeats. Have any of you met "the one" through a dating app?

33 M NJ looking for someone F to explore the city, restaurant, bars and do fun activities and see where things lead to. If someone who is not looking for marriage from day 1, message me. ☺️

Which city would you recommend for single men in late 20s trying to find good opportunities in career & dating? Leaning more towards to NYC but not planning to live in Manhattan due to the high rent so I am not sure that would be okay. Also don't want to drive that much.

Single 24 year old here. Recently joined Hinge. I am barely getting any activity. I'm a former OKCupid user and I always got something there. Do people not use Hinge or is there something wrong with me? I'm a fit average height guy and I am not ugly. Looking for LTR especially now in the time of Corona. Didn't bother with human interaction before tbh but this loneliness is creeping up. 😔

Hi NYC desis - Do you guys know of any cooks that can come home and cook Indian food? My in-laws are visiting me end of this month, and they like eating roti, dal, sabji for at least 1 of their meals.

I am working on a project to built OKR and KPI software for performance prediction. The tool that helps companies track KPIs and predicts business performance using these KPIs. This does two things for the business 1) creates visibility around performance individuals, departments and business as a whole and 2) enables businesses to predict outcomes for the next month, quarter etc.

I am interested in is knowing, a) if companies track KPIs and how do they do it b) (to be continued in comment)

For those of you on medication, how do you manage delayed flights causing you to miss appointments? Often, cancellation policies are strict, expensive, and require several days notice.

Hey , i want to know the transport facility in cognizant Gurgaon as i am not getting proper information from HR for Day shift role. Can someone please help. Its an urgent request.

Yesterday’s debate was “a mess”, “a circus”? It was child’s play compared to what is in the WH right now. Or are you forgetting the last 3 years? This is *the* election to Vote Blue no Matter Who.

I’ve been in inside/outside roles 7+ yrs in Real Estate & have led sales/development on large residential developments for luxury new construction & assist buyers, sellers, investors. Now both my kids are in school FT I don’t need flex hours & prefer not to work weekends. I’d like to be in AE role where I can build a career I’m proud of with more stability. But it seems like the only path to be an AE is through the SDR route. Any ideas on companies open to non SaaS work history in Chicagoland?

Why is Salesforce Marketing Cloud Consultant certification this hard compared to other SF certifications? Any tips to crack this?

I feel some OPs are using people as free therapy in this bowl. Just saying, although I'm happy to be a free therapist.

What’s your most hated/dreadful chore?
I hate doing laundry 🧺 and folding/putting it away.

Do you share details about raises/bonuses/other financial gains with friends or do you keep it to yourself? I have a few friends who will tell me everything from how much money they make to how much their husband spent on them for their bdays to how much their parents make?? To me that feels like bragging/being arrogant. It’s also the way they say it, feels very much like seeking validation to me.

I’m with a guy I’m 100% confident is deeply in love with me, would never lie/cheat/betray, respects me/listens to me, and tries to help me live my best life.
(A Kokoum, if you will.)
I love him very much, but I’m not “head over heels”.
Afraid that if I break it off because our relationship is cozy instead of the deep love I think it’s supposed to be for life partnership/marriage, I’ll be making the biggest mistake of my life

I’ve been at my current job a month shy of a full year, yet I have already seen that there are not a whole lot of promotions or raises to stretch for, but part of that comes from being hired in a little green for the role. I’m currently negotiating salaries on the west coast and am nearly certain we will reach an agreement soon. How do I give my two weeks without burning bridges?

All of us want the same thing! Money- Flex Timing- Great Culture- Respect - Value in what we are doing!
We, the employees make an organization. If all of us want the same thing, how come the culture of that organization still remains the same! Why can’t we be the pioneer? Thoughts…

Have a crush on my co-worker. He asked me out to go rock climbing one-on-one after we were texting for a while and I acted awkwardly when we went because I didn’t know if it was a date (nothing was explicitly said). Now I’m stuck in this weird limbo state where things have fizzled out but I’m re-reading texts and think he might’ve actually had a crush too and I pushed him away. Ambiguity sucks.

A toxic co-worker tried to throw me under the bus to cover their mistake in a call with leadership 😢😢. I showed the proof of conversation the next moment without hesitation to everyone. Suddenly their tone changes and tries to divert the topic 😒😒. I am distraught 🙁🙁

After ~20-30 min on a call, I stop paying attention.

Staying downtown Columbus Hilton for my wife’s job conference and we have to use valet parking since I need to use my car to go to work every day. $40 a day, how much do I tip and is it when I drop my car off and when they bring it to me in the morning?

My LinkedIn feed was absolutely filled with layoffs today. What happened? A month or two ago it was a candidate’s market and the offers were great but now everything has shifted. I was informed that I am not getting a promotion that I was gunning for, and when I pushed back about being fairly compensated for my work the response about it not being a good time to ask was really ominous. Anyone else feeling bummed?

My boyfriend just found my vibe...

Am I dumb/naive for feeling guilty about possibly leaving? 😅

I may get a remote role & almost 2x my TC just as my firm is rolling out an RTO plan.

I already felt kinda bad for interviewing b/c the people are great, but now they’re all dreading the day they have to go back in and I may not even be there.

Is this premature survivors guilt or something? 😂

(P.S. No way in hell I’d turn down the offer if I get it)

I rearrange my home office several times a year. Idk why but every 4 months I need to change it up. Anyone else do this?

Well guys, I got my heart broken - girlfriend broke up with me. Can’t focus or sleep at night. Don’t have many friends or family. What do I do?
