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.

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.

I flunked out of school and had no options when I joined the army. I hated every second of my time in, and spent all my weekends getting as drunk as possible.

Now that I’m out, I graduated with my BA in Econ, got a job I love, and somehow got into an M7 Bschool with a 670 GMAT. I look back on my time in and laugh, and still talk with some of my old army buddies (though not as often anymore)

Amazing how time can change your perspective, because 10 years ago I never thought I’d be here.
