Does anybody else get extremely, unhealthily anxious that they're not getting out there enough, that they're missing great snow, that they're stuck inside working, that there's only a few months of the season and that it's all-or-nothing?
The thought of having to find the best run, the fewest crowds, the best pow days, etc. all make me physically uncomfortable.
Even just watching the videos of snow fall on
Tahoe is making my heart race spike.

If you do billable work on a given PTO/vacation day, do you still count that day as vacation? Or do you get that vacation day "back"? Or do you only get the part that you billed "back"? (Or some other option.)

Anyone else struggle with this/have a solution?

Hello Fishes,

I need some advice regarding this situation and what to do. So I work for a company that offers outsourcing services to major investment banks around the world. I have been working for a new client for about six months now and they seem to like my work so far. Recently I saw that they're hiring to get people on their team at my level. My question is, should I talk to my client and try to pursue them to consider me for the role they're hiring for?

I’ve been working for a company for 25yrs, looking for advancement. I’m considered an SME, managing people, Vendors and working on large system conversions. Have provided long term goals.

Recently interviewed with another company as a Vendor Mgmt partner. Individual contributor, high visible position with potential. Thoughts?

Recently interviewed for a dream job.
Now as I wait for a response and the tension builds I find myself thinking more about wanting to drink (I have 8 months so far). Cont.....

I’ve slowly started drinking less and less. And the less I’m drinking the more I realize just how much of my time revolved around alcohol. From going to get it, to drinking it to fighting hangovers. Now I realize I need something to fill all that time with. Especially now that I’m not spending all day saturday and sunday deathly hungover. I go for walks and run errands…but in a shock to me…there’s still a lot of time left. How did you start spending your time once you stopped drinking?

Just interviewed for a job. Saw an old work friend in the lobby, and he shot me a message after we said hi, saying it’d be great to work in the same building again, "plus this new one has a bar.” 😣

Hope everyone is having a good sober holiday season. I survived my company holiday party. I have to say, the drinking looked fun. I mean, it is fun if you’re not a drunk like me.
