I told my boss I found his “Thanks.” on Slack aggressive and he now uses exclamation points to make me happy 😂 awww but I actually appreciate it lol. I know this sounds ridiculous which is why it’s a confession.

I want to crawl into a hole and hide after every meeting.

After I leave Zoom, I'm left alone with my thoughts and all I can do lament about how I talked too much, too little, said the wrong thing, laughed inappropriately, and how everyone probably hates me because of The Way I Am and I'm on the verge of getting fired.

I have an supportive team and boss but I can't help thinking everyone is silently judging me and talking about how awful I am behind my back.

Is the hiring process for an Advertising Agency different from other companies?

I interviewed for one today and by the end of the zoom interview she already asked me to send 3 references. She told me she would like me to meet the team by the end of month. I’m asking because I’ve been interviewing for different companies and their process seems to involve a few interviews rounds before asking for references. I’m not from the US so this is new for me.

My therapist literally had me remove my Zoom background in the beginning of our session because the shadow movement it was creating really bothered him. I never had anyone ask me to change my zoom view/background settings before

Is there a world or any real possibility of landing a job as an attorney who doesn’t have a crazy stressful caseload and can just draft up and do transactional work from home and Zoom meet with clients or court and not have to be constantly stressed all the time? Is that a fantasy? I’m currently in ID and I know now that litigation is not for me. Looking for a less stressful way to practice while still making enough to support my family and pay off student loans. It’s taking its toll on me.

I have a file that I exported from Microsoft Teams that contains a task tracker and several columns of dates. However, I believe these dates must be formatted as text because when I create a pivot table it will not group them by month. I have tried to change the format of the cells to a date with no luck. I have also tried to use ‘text to columns’ to convert them, which causes Excel to crash. This is a small data set, less than 100 lines. Any suggestions? Can share the file if needed.

A general rant here: I get a sense that ppl make mountain out of molehill, when I had never really thought it was a big deal. A couple of examples like ppl saying they can’t share Bed with same-sex friend for a night. Or when someone don’t like to see Zoom calls taken from Bed. Maybe I’ve grown in a culture where you don’t necessarily make everything about Sex (or I’m growing old 🤷‍♂️). It just sounds to me that whenever ppl think of Bed, they only think Sex!!

Strange, but this new therapist asked me to send him zoom invite for our first session. Is that how it’s done normally? I told him my company doesn’t allow me to share my work zoom outside. Then he said that he’s kinda new to zoom that’s why he’s asking. He quickly sent me a zoom invite though

I can’t figure out this vibe I’m getting from my new therapist. They were resourceful and were able to put me in the right direction for 2 of the issues i had. But at the same time I feel like they behave a bit bossy. Ask me to send them a zoom link, etc. When I’m trying to make an appt they would say X day/hour is the only time I can offer me this week. Then when i decline, they come back & say they were able to extend their schedule for me and can offer Y time now (which works for me).

Put on a PIP due to my manager stating “they don’t feel like they know me, due to my camera not being on” during meetings larger meetings. If you thought consulting was archaic and bureaucratic, you haven’t experienced tech.

I don’t quite know how to respond to this especially coming from a career where people at my level weren’t on camera at all. I just don’t like being on camera, but I go into the office to meet the team. I’m not in the best living situation for on camera Zoom calls.

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated. I’ll try to bring it up with them, but I’ll say “if you want to end this feel free” so it doesn’t hurt me (and they can say what they really mean instead of sugarcoating). Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?
