Just came back, pretty easy if you were involved in 3 RFPs, 2 Internal assists building and team hiring/interviewing while on paternity leave 😕

You’re a champion. Thanks for the perspective!

You got this 👍🏼

Good luck! I never realized how much I didn’t miss being on the road til I sent back after leave

You will be surprised to know it is all the same here. Nothing changes! Chill chill. Good luck

What are some side gigs people have done that they wouldn't pursue again today? Are there any you'd still go for, but would approach completely differently?

Thinking along the lines of:
- Platforms you'd keep away from
- Gigs that people have missed the boat on by now or instead that have just taken off only now
- Specific hustles that aren't worth the upfront cost/hassle in setting up or that are super hard to hire for
- Policies/attitudes you'd adopt going into things this time around
