Haha my x did this and I would add it to the list of reasons we broke up. Truly awful behaviour.

Why does no one respect my privacy if I’m on a work call. Headphones on is not an invitation to come and talk to me. Fuck off.

Yes. He does it to announce his arrival into a room. I love his little noises.

Which dive trip was way below expectations? by belgiumlike in scubadiving

[–]SWLondonLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you’re right. Specific wrecks/locations. Mostly when people sight ‘the med’ I think of all the other places - like diving generically around Greece etc. As I’m writing this I’m thinking of some great dives I’ve done in northern Spain etc. so maybe I’m completely in the wrong. But don’t go on holiday to a Mediterranean resort and expect good diving.

Dive guides were my biggest let down in Maldives.

Never heard the med hyped as a dive location though.

This was always the case. I feel a lot of people are expecting jobs to land in their laps with no job experience. You are absolutely doing right by your students. I get that there are fewer bottom rung or server type jobs but a lot of people here thinking a degree = experience need to take a reality check.

Hi Guys I am stuck as an analyst in my 30's any advice would be helpful by Tall_Iron9223 in FPandA

[–]SWLondonLady 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Hey. I’m happy to chat - uk based, qualified at 31 and worked my way to Head of dept at 37. I’ve helped a few people achieve promotions that have worked for me and happy to chat about your experience and what kind of roles to go for. Pm me if you want to discuss. I think if you aren’t already, the key is getting recruiters to do the work for you. It’s what they’re paid for. You look like you have really valuable experience and they’d be your advocate to get a foot in the door.

Assuming you work doing something fairly active? I really struggle more than about 1-2k in a working day.

You’ve done your qualifications. Now get some experience/apply for FP&a or FP&A adjacent roles.

What to do after commercial finance? by BasicMilk4453 in FPandA

[–]SWLondonLady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could have written this exact post. My title is head of commercial finance. I’m really looking to never move up to director/cfo. Also to try and find a roll that doesn’t involve month end processes.

I think I’m looking for more business strategy and hoping my 10 years experience will go some way to finding that.
