Does anyone else get stressed when family/friends comes out to visit? I love seeing people, but for some reason my stress level goes up and I feel like I won’t be able to get everything done that I normally have to

Oh for sure. It's like being on high alert the entire time to make sure they feel comfortable, constantly asking myself if I'm being being good host, planning around them so they get the most out of their visit, etc.

Family? Yes

Yeah sometimes feels like my routine gets shifted
Also when friends come I tend to drink and eat way more - one thing I’ve done is ask if the friend wants to do something active one day.

Also boundaries sometimes friends will come on weekdays bc flights are cheaper which is totally fine but if I have to work I just give them city recs and let them go

I am in the customer service and sales side of travel insurance, and I am looking for a new job, possibly in another field.

I was told that it had nothing to do with my performance. Any suggestions on how to obtain a position in another area? Such as going from strictly customer service and sales to advocate and claims?
