For those that got a half day today- were you able ti actually utilize it, or did you basically spend a full day working? Our clients didn’t have today off so we were on basically all day. I know I’m lucky to have a role but the work life balance hasn’t been good and struggling mentally to handle such a busy client and still priories myself and family. Hope you all can enjoy the long weekend

That’s WPP for ya

It’s advertising. Them’s the breaks

Worked full day. Emails that I had to take action were still coming in the afternoon.

Day off, client sent a few emails, but less than 1% of my brain was spent responding to it. Back on the 7th.

Working on 3 Canadian projects but based in US, so I had to work Tuesday and ended up working until 7:30p on the 3rd.

Ugh I’m so sorry that’s miserable

Day off? Lol

Hello,

I moved to USA in 2017 on F1 visa. I was not selected for H1-B in the 3 years of my OPT. While my company is transferring me to Canada and can potentially get me back on L1 visa, the shifting situation is stressing me out. The thought of moving to another country in a couple of months is causing a lot of anxiety and tough luck with the lottery is making me feel depressed.

Any suggestions on how to cope with the situation? (Please be considerate in the comment) Thanks in advance!
