I try to go gym climbing at least once. I’m finally getting more V7s and making progress on a couple of V 8-9s. Sometimes I’ll go to the malls in town or DC. Maybe my wife will try to sell her crafts. Sometimes we will go back to visit Florida. Florida, especially Jacksonville, sucks. I really want to take us to the aquarium. Wife wants to gain weight, so I’m trying to get her to go to the gym.

Definitely relaxing with music and puzzle.

I work from home, I made it a rule to turn the company laptop the entire weekend completely OFF.

Then I go back to being a full time Dad/Husband, like SAP 1 I have 3 kids too (15, 9, 3). I usually focus on family matters like hanging out with my kids (talk about their school week, go out the park/mall and play, movie nights, deal with children tantrums, nothing out of the ordinary). Then if we want to go out, which we usually do, my family takes turns with suggestions and depending on the season, we camp, snowboard, fish, hike, visit Japanese Temples, hot springs, beaches, theme parks, explore nature, go to the malls, and I just go with the flow and drive them to wherever they want - oh and yes, weekend long drives relaxes me, so it’s a win win.

And when I’m left alone, I read books, watch the news, learn new stuff, NETFLIX, NBA replays, chat with old friends online, charity volunteer, talk to my mom.

Received an offer from a top FAANG for a 250% increase in TC. However, I was initially interviewing for a position that was remote and yet the final offer does not provide that option, non-negotiable. I have a wife and 2-year-old child and another one due in 7 months, and currently live near both sets of grandparents.

Is working at a top FAANG really worth that kind of cost? I'm leaning heavily 'no' but it's not making it easy to sleep at night knowing I'm sitting on this kind of offer!

I passed the hiring committee review for a position at Google and the next step is the matching process (it was a general role, but industry hire).

Any suggestions on how to navigate it and do my own part in finding a team/matching/moving along my process?
