Sorry...new to this. NYC.

Furlough does not not necessarily equal termination of employment, just means employer has decided not to put you to work for X amount of time, which is entirely within the employer's rights. Not sure you would have much to look at right now from a legal perspective, unless furloughed employees are disproportionately members of a protected category.

Watching the season premiere of Queer Eye and Karamo just said, “I don’t see any queer literature in here,” expressing his frustration towards the gay priest’s personal bookshelves.

Sigh. Are LGBTQ+ expected to have books about being LGBTQ+ now?

Am I wrong for having a problem with this mindset and the expectations of one not being “queer” enough?

Is RPA sales engineering a good career pivot now? Have been in Cloud SE for 5 years and it is getting mundane. Forget about the Data and AI, realistically majority of the work is around VM migration + RFP + Pricing + pushing commit 2x more than customer's current need, instead of really adding technical and business value to the customer.

RPA seems to be on the rise, there are certainly risk but the value + technology seems to be closer to reality. Love to hear more.

I’m looking for some advice and/or to vent a little. I’ve been looking for a sales job specifically to pivot into tech sales and I’m getting rejected non stop and it’s really starting to weigh on me and ruin my confidence.

The positives are, I’m actually getting interviews- about 5 so far, I get to the later/last rounds but can’t seem to close the deal. I’ve tried learning from each experience, and taking that as growth for the next interview but it hasn’t worked.
I have 7yrs total sales exp.

Have any of you told your family how much money you make? My family has never asked but I feel like my partner’s family is always trying to figure it out and it makes me uncomfortable.

I am so grateful to have a job but I’d rather not disclose my salary to anyone other than the IRS.
