You can try strengthening abs and back and fixing posture but I would still suggest investing in a nice chair.

Looking for your career advice! I currently work as a Content Marketing Manager but would love to move into a Head of Marketing/Marketing Director role.

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!

I supervise the work of the new coordinators on my team and I’m afraid I might be coming off micromanage-y. I’m not intentionally trying to be overbearing. I’ve been chewed out by higher-up over small mistakes and I’ve witness other people go through the same. It has honestly given me some major symptoms of PTSD. I would never want anyone to be put in that position which is why I try to make sure everything is done as perfectly as it can be. Any advice on how I can stop caring so much?
