I've heard quite a few anecdotal reports of FFQ being slow on certain websites. I've had no such issues, and in fact really like Quantum. I've used FF for a long, long time. I may …

This x1000. Before you plan the next 10 years of your life in a certain direction, spend some time ensuring thats actually the direction you want to take. Edit: Will also add, for …

Very broad and vague question I am having trouble beginning to answer. 1) Are you assuming all price increases are due to being "aggressive"? 2) What industries are you talking? Pu…

>We live in a capitalist society. Always a solid cop-out for allowing bad things to continue

I can't specifically speak to this, but I would like to chime in with one thing: A lot of your post reminds me of the common traits of Imposter Syndrome [1]. Even if you are actual…

It's hard to make any recommendations without a bit more information. 1) Where do you find your view of the phone interview going from optimistic to feeling it's gone awry? 2) Are …

I understand where your coming from and I'm sure theres a happy medium. Doing just money or just enjoyment wont work as well as a proper balance. But, to play devils advocate... Ha…

I feel really sorry for you and your friends who spend your lives doing what you don't enjoy for the sake of some 0's on your bank account. Also, I'm not saying go pick flowers for…

I disagree with this, and would be very cautious of doing something like this in a business setting. No matter how nicely you put it, you're going to come across as "I know more th…

IMO don't stick your nose where it don't belong. As Danso said, you could mention it to the person which the person in question reports to, and I would do so with caution and vague…

I don't feel brave. I just feel happy that this conversation can be had without judgement, without trolls, without feeling badly about mentioning it. I'm not near Regina, but your …

Thank-you for the indepth reply! I think a lot of valuable information is there. I usually don't feel afraid of "looking lonely" but, there have been a few times I stop myself from…

I'm very happy to see such a lively, helpful discussion sparked from my post. May I ask what you do on the days that it is bothering you? Do you just keep going until it doesnt bot…
