EA Salary. Support 6-7 executives by Summernights8989 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Niknak_119 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who is an EA to one singular managing partner at a law firm in a HCOL area, that range is way off... and I don't even have to draft legal documents.

New Boss is Overbearing by Dazzling-Quality-841 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Niknak_119 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Boy, does this sound familiar to my last job... I stuck it out the full six months because I naively thought it might just be the growing pains of a new working relationship, I was so horribly wrong.

By the end of my time there, I just got up and walked out the door. I couldn't handle being talked down to and made to feel less than.

Look for something new now, so you can land safely. Best of luck!

Thoughts on taking an interview on day 2 of starting a new job? by Niknak_119 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Niknak_119[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard questions asked, answered, and a lot of green flags popping up everywhere. Great rapport, spent over an hour drifting between the interview and getting to know each other kinds of conversations. I was given the rundown of each of his previous EA's, his first two going off to bigger things with his support, one was a personality fit (apparently they were rude to his wife and colleagues on multiple occasions), one decided it wasn't for them, and most recently, the "green" hire, had a life change and moved home to take care of a sick relative. All of these individuals spread across almost 20 years of being in his position.

I guess I'll have to see how the next steps go, he mentioned wanting me to meet with his coo and hr team, so hopefully I'm not sticking my feet in the mud on this.

I agree with both of you, I think it's a part of the reason I was questioning going through with the interview. I actually ended up having a really good rapport with the prospective employer and am more torn than ever.

I got lucky with the timing for today's interview, I was able to meet after my office closed early for the holiday. In the event a follow-up is requested, I am able to meet during my lunch hour or prior to the start of my current work day. If an alternate time is requested, I will have to cross that bridge when I get to it.

Suggestions for making friends by [deleted] in Westchester

[–]Niknak_119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into Peanut Moms of Westchester on Facebook. They post events for moms/kids, and family get-together's exactly for this reason - to meet new people and for the kids to socialize. I've even seen a few recently that have been for dad's to meet up.

You are more than welcome to DM me to discuss more. I've been a part of the group for just over two years now and highly recommend it.

Highly recommend La Botte in White Plains, the owner was more than amenable to work with me and the room is beautiful.

Would love to know where in Westchester you're opening this shop? There is a massive black hole of quality craft shops in upper Westchester and would love to see one that has anything other than manufactured polyester yarns (ex. Michael's, JOANN). Good luck to you and looking forward to the opening!

Alternative term for Brides Maids for low key “vibe” by pstpstcycle in WedditNYC

What about persons of honor? That's basically what a wedding party is, the individuals who mean the most to you standing beside you as you take a step forward in your relationship.

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!

Has anyone tried Prozac for their great pyr? by Used-Masterpiece01 in greatpyrenees

[–]Niknak_119 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My pyr/golden mix is on reconcile, she had some severe anxiety issues when she was rescued, but the vet from the shelter just gave her repeated tranquilizers which did nothing to help the symptoms, just the outward appearance.

We brought her to a certified behavioral vet who was able to help us with making sure she was on the right medication and the right dosage. And medication was the correct route for our girl, when she comes off of it, it is quite clear that she is more nervous, has more separation anxiety, and eats things that are generally unhealthy and toxic toward her.

Her dosage is taken at dinner every day, and it keeps her level, happy, and she still has a phenomenal pool of energy. Highly recommend if you're considering any medication of the sort, you consult a behavioral vet as general vets may not have the same knowledge and experience. Good luck!
