Do you ever take time off for your birthday? I took time off for mine in January and it was so great getting a day to just relax.

My birthday is Aug 1. So, yes I always have my birthday off.

My birthday is around Memorial Day so I get lucky sometimes, but it’s terrible when it’s the day before or after a break - we’re not allowed to be absent the day before or after school breaks ugh.

My birthday always falls during spring break.

No. March birthday. Not into celebrating it, really.

I have scheduled important doctor appointments on my birthday because they are easy to remember. I take the day off to make those.

I have taken off a few times on my birthday, but most of the time I work. This last year I worked on my birthday, and I had so many birthday wishes.

Hi! I have worked in management roles in tech, mainly in analytics, for approximately 10 years. My TC has fluctuated (currently around 135K CAD), but it seems like it's relatively easy to breach the 100K bar, but hard to breach the 150K bar. I now work at the CBC, but I have worked in the private sector too. What is the most realistic way to move to 200K? 1) Continue moving the ladder to a VP position, 2) Switch to Pre-Sale, 3) Switch to Consulting, 4) Work from a U.S. company from Canada.
