Can I get HONEST idea of hours you actually work?? Company, division/area, average hours per week?

While travlng for work, I got sick & had to miss a planned excursion. Later, at dinner, I was eating bread because my stomach was still upset. A coworker joked in front of the group that maybe I had drank too much. The comment bothered me because it wasn’t true, & it felt dismissive. This isn’t the first time this person has made teasing comments, but this one felt different because I was clearly not feeling well. How have you handled coworkers whose humor comes at someone else’s expense?

I am 63 years old and have 30 years of Collections management experience working in banks . I currently have an individual contributor role job making $110,000 per year . Our office is only 5 people. I report to the owner . I've been here 3 years. I recently received a job offer of $110,000 for a Collections Manager for a Debt Collection law firm. They have a 401K plan but no match. My current job is very low stress , casual dress, and a very easy job. Is this new job worth the move ?

Be honest: how much does company prestige still matter to you? Early on it felt huge, but the older I get, the more I care about the day-to-day experience. Has prestige become less important to you over time?

Serious question for advisors: when did some wholesalers start treating our calendars like open real estate? 😂 There’s a difference between offering value and basically informing me I’ll be attending a meeting. How do you all politely manage the overly aggressive vendor follow-up cycle?
