How do you get out of the burnout cycle? I’ve felt overwhelmed for a while and now I’m in the “can’t function at all” stage. It’s so hard explaining this to my manager because I already have a workload that’s lighter than others (not because of performance or my request). Any tips on how to get re-engaged, since the overwhelming feeling will come back?

I am currently in a logistics sales position at my company. I’ve thrived in a position very similar to this previously.

What’s the best low calorie, high protein snack?

Background- In quarantine I’ve been intermittent fasting &calorie counting for a few months, and still working out in the mornings. My workout has usually been a 3-4 mile run and I’ve definitely gotten leaner but I’m now trying to add in more strength training, and so I feel like I should be getting protein after my workouts.

Any advice on where to go from here appreciated too!

Put in my notice partially due to feeling undervalued by the org not my boss who is great. Turns out I was going to be promoted at the end of the month they just hadn’t announced it yet. New job pays a lot more but would be a level down from this promotion. Feeling conflicted. There are some other issues at my current company but they are actively working to address. Backing out of the offer I accepted would definitely burn a bridge. Honestly not sure what I want to do. Both companies are F25

I’m being recruited back to a bank I left 6 months ago. Was contacted by a recruiter this week because I had indicated in my exit interview that I would consider a return to the firm in the future. When I left this bank for my current employer… I received a $30k bump. I’ve never been recruited before and am curious what questions I should ask? Is this a good sign? Would it be wrong to ask for an additional $25k to go back?

I find myself questioning my existence daily now. I think about what it would be like to just no longer exist - and what a relief it might be instead of just seeing wallowing in misery all of the time. It seems like this is my regular mindset and I don’t know what to do. I like anyone recommend meds? Is it time for that? I don’t really want to go that route, but I also know that I can’t continue to live like this either.

Do you lose unemployment benefits after you receive a job offer but before you start? I know it may vary by state, but haven't found anything specific (MA).
