Anyone else have crazy WLB? Yesterday I got to work for 8:20am, ran 2mi at the office gym, went up to my office for 9am, had meetings until 11am, did some work, ate office catered lunch at 11:40am, walked next door to the church for 30 minute mass, then went for a walk until 1pm, then meetings until 3pm, substantive work til 4pm, took a call from the road, home by 4:30pm, responded to some emails until 5, then rest of the day with my family, bed by 9. I make $300k/yr.

My parents are coming to US for 5 months. Any recommendations for health insurance ?

Please refer me if you can. I have 11 months of experience working as linux system admin. I want to change company. please help me 🙏.

Some PMs always catch my careless mistakes, and call me out hard. Now whenever I get an email from them I assume the worst and get anxious. The more I get anxious the more mistakes I make, and terrified this will lead to me for being “incompetent” and will get fired/passed up for promotions, then I mentally shut down at work and stop trying. Always been outspoken and an overachiever, now becoming shy awkward and quiet. I get panic attacks at work and feel trapped in my own body. Pls help!!

Just had a hearing on my motion to compel where OC told the judge we hadn’t conferred before filing the motion. Not only did I attempt to confer on 3 separate dates, I attached the emails and his response that he refused to confer to my motion. Judge didn’t care, as soon as she heard him say we hadn’t conferred she denied the motion. Not asking a question, just needed to vent.

What do you do when you feel the goalpost has been/is being moved re: billable requirements? Like there's a spoken vs unspoken? I chose this job based on billables vs salary and what I'm being told I'm expected to do now is 20-30% (at least) > than what was initially agreed upon. Given my other life responsibilities, this is creating a huge strain & I feel like this is slowly getting harder & harder on my spouse & kids. I'm grateful to have lots of good work but not sure how to course correct.
