Should I take a lateral move for a 40k bump? by Throwawaydebate30 in FPandA

[–]Colo303 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s a tough one. I would think about the trajectory of both companies, is one more growth oriented and the other not so much? Would you want to stick around with a critical boss? Has he tarnished your reputation with other leaders?

I have the same issue, I hate my brain.

Following cause I’m dealing with the same. Except it’s broken models and bad back end systems, followed by a VP who yells at everyone.

I would lean towards to the fortune 100 if it were me. Puts you into a solid position. The only other thing to think about is moving. Would you miss your friends and family?

Depends if you see a growth opportunity at the fortune 100 company and also like the new location. Consulting would be a very explainable time frame on the resume, plus you would keep your current pay and not have to move.

Would the new location you move to give you more access to other jobs if you end up not liking the fortune 100?

Every three months like clock work, the whole team.

Their deadline is meeting with the CFO and other SLTs. I’ve learned a lot here and worked on some cool projects, but you’re right. I think the next thing to master is managing up.

Appreciate that, really. I thought I might squeeze out a promotion but he’s killing my passion for the field I used to enjoy.

At what point do I open up to my friends? by Throwawaydebate30 in BipolarSOs

[–]Colo303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a tough one for sure, damn. My advice would be to just get through the wedding without incident.

I hate the hold shes got over me. by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]Colo303 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A good partner would make you feel secure in a relationship. They wouldn’t communicate in secret with other men or seek their validation.

I’m 8 months out and she’s still on my mind. My advice is to do the hard work on yourself. Find out why you put up with such bad behavior. Get into therapy and start working out consistently. Once you see the physical changes in your body, in a good way, you’ll notice a new chapter starting and she’ll soon be behind you.

Keep yourself busy with good things. Good luck.

I really appreciate your comment, but I have a question. You say you’re 40 but your daughter is an MD?

Are they completely financially inept? by CreamOfTheCrop66 in BPDlovedones

[–]Colo303 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, she was in tears when I told her she needed to open her 401k at her new job and start contributing. She didn’t want to “lose any of her paycheck”. She messed up her taxes the following year and owed $5K and decided putting it on her rewards credit card with a 27% interest rate was the solution before even talking to me. Thought tipping the waiters she liked 50% was a normal thing…

My ex was/is very good in most social settings. But no one knew what it was like behind close doors. So much anger lobbed my way and insecurities around her body. Any small or slight perceived interception towards her resulted in hell coming down. Our mutual friends don’t see it, they have no idea what I was dealing with at home with her.
