Are these pants inappropriate for client meetings?

If I buy these pants in black, are they still inappropriate because of the visible elastic waist?

I would be wearing a white button-down tucked in, so you would be able to see the elastic waist.

How conservative is the MSA?

I’m female, but I don’t wear the hijab. It’s not like I show skin, but I mostly wear skinny jeans and a hoodie, not an abaya.

I’m also Desi (my parents are from Bangladesh) if that matters. I’m looking for friends and I don’t think the Bengali Student Association is very active. I’m an accounting major and I haven’t really met any Bengalis.

Course Professor is still TBA even though there is no one else to teach it?

I’m a student that’s kind of obsessed with knowing who my professors are going to be for the next semester. But, for one of my classes, the professor is still TBA (to be announced).

I know that there are only 3 people that teach this specific topic at this school. The first two people are literally booked during the timeframe of this class, so they can’t teach it. The last person is the one who I thought would teach the class. He registered to teach other classes for next semester, but not this one yet.

I just don’t understand why his name isn’t on the schedule yet. This person has been the only one to teach this class for the last 10 years. There is literally no one else that can teach this class since the other professors are teaching other classes during the timeframe of this one. This person is super active on LinkedIn every day; I see him liking posts about the university and making more posts about random topics every day.

I really want to email someone and ask them who the professor is going to be, but I know it’s June and I should get a life I guess.

I’m a student that’s kind of obsessed with knowing who my professors are going to be for the next semester. But, for one of my classes, the professor is still TBA (to be announced).

This is a tax class, and I know that there are only 3 people that teach tax at this school. The first two people are literally booked during the timeframe of this class, so they can’t teach it. The last person is the one who I thought would teach the class. He registered to teach other tax classes for next semester, but not this one yet.

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get any corporate job

I did my bachelors in Computer Science because I’m super socially awkward and borderline autistic. I only choose the major because there were so many people with the same interests as me there, even though I was an objectively terrible programmer.

Fast forward 2 years, I couldn’t get a job, so I do a Master’s in Accounting. But, honestly, I see so many people younger than me that are such smooth talkers, that can make eye contact with recruiters, that really thrive on being extroverted, and know what to say all the time.

I’ll really never be like that. I try really hard, but I stutter. People make fun of me behind my back because I’m so awkward. I can’t answer interview questions unless they’re super simple and they’re ones that I already have a script laid out and prepared for. If I get asked a question I didn’t prepare, I just freeze up. I’ve been on so many interviews over the past few years, and I just don’t have the social skills necessary to maintain and keep a job.

I’m going into my second year of my Master’s program and I don’t think I’ll have any luck with Meet The Firms again this year either. Should I just drop out? What’s a better career for someone who’s autistic?

Why are some courses still TBA, if it’s basically guaranteed to be taught by a certain professor?

There’s this one course that I’m looking at that’s been taught by this one professor for the last 10 years. It’s still somehow TBA even though this professor was the only one to teach it for a long time. This guy is an adjunct and he’s listed as teaching other classes this fall (classes that he also normally teaches), so it’s not like he’s quitting, he’s TBA just for this one class. I genuinely don’t get it.

Super easy asynchronous classes for gen-eds

Are there any super easy A classes that are asynchronous and count for a gen-ed? I would prefer not to make videos of myself, do any presentations, or do any group work. I don’t mind quizzes and tests, essays, or lots of reading. If there are in-person classes that I can be completely anonymous in (i.e. don’t have to raise my hand and talk) and still get an A, that’s okay too.

Do the AARP Tax-Aide volunteers have people they can ask questions to?

I was thinking about volunteering as an AARP Tax-Aide next tax season, and I know that they train you. But what if I have a question when I’m doing a tax return that I can’t figure it out through just googling. Is there anyone that I can ask while preparing the return, or am I just on my own?
