Anyone else get stressed out just from seeing a Slack notification pop up? I swear my heart rate spikes every time even if it’s just a 🙌 emoji or a “Thanks!” message. My brain immediately assumes it’s a passive-aggressive request, late-night feedback, or another last-minute fire drill. It’s like my nervous system is on high alert 24/7. Is this normal now, or just a sign I’ve been burned one too many times?

Not just you. Slack has become a corporate jump scare. If it’s not triggering panic, are you even employed in a toxic environment?

So I just started a keto diet this week and excited to see where it goes and the challenges / benefits I’ll face. At the same time, I was told I may need to travel to Israel in about 4 weeks. Considering team dinners and me really wanting to capitalize on exploring some of the cuisine there.. is there harm cycling off 1 week after just 4 weeks?

Anyone have experience waiting on an offer while having received another within 1 org? I have been interning for 5 months. My manager has been extending me as I expressed I didn’t want my current role but need the job.

She has been extremely open to assisting me in finding other roles internally. Recently, I expressed a desire to stay on the team as a “full time.” The day before I got the offer I was invited to interview for another role. I will take the other offer if extended. What now?

Hello, I have been with the same company for 17 years. I am a supervisor for a laboratory in patient services. I worked my way up and currently have no degrees. Has anyone been able to work their way up in a company and then find a similar job with another company? I’m nervous that I’m stuck based on the fact that I don’t have a degree.
