I took adderall while I was studying for the bar and it really helped. I don’t have a prescription but am wondering if this likely means I have undiagnosed ADHD but don’t know how to bring this up to my doctor. I definitely have trouble focusing in general and have always been pretty dozey/aloof but have somehow gotten by and am now a third year associate who is doing okay without it. Do you think getting Aderall could help even though I’m doing fine? Maybe I’ll go from good associate to great

My sales lead just gave me my quota for the year. Its increased 120% from last year. I asked if my peers experienced the same increase and the answer is No because I have more experience and up for promo this year. Our bonuses are a % of quota achieved meaning it’s harder for me to get a bonus. Do you think this is fair? What would you do? For additional context, I crushed my quota last year but I feel like I’m being punished now.

For those with significant others who are healthcare workers, how do they react when you are having / had a bad day? I feel like they think they have it 1000x worse (which could most certainly be true) but our job is also stressful/challenging just in a different way? Agree?

Just had my midyear review. I got very negative feedback even though I have been killing it last few weeks. Manager pointed out I had been hard to reach in March (I had contacted COVID and was going in and out of hospitals) and said I had QC issues (which I don't contest when I was first starting out, but it's been getting a lot better). Partner dialed in and said manager communicated her comments to him and I can call him after I digested it. How do I approach this situation?

Sorry for this post. I generally half heartedly listen to "I had a dream last night" stories. First off they are yours not mine and secondly the actions never actually happened.

With that let me tell you about my awesome dream last night 🤪🤪🤪

I dreamed that Corna was gone and I was able to go make a in-person sales call. It was magical.
