Have you been able to save up lately? I’ve been doing a lot of $500-700+ weekend trips (rent car, airbnb) to remote areas, buy more alcohol and order in more to compensate for “not going out”. I’ve spent all that I’ve saved in the first three months of quarantine :(

Wanted some clarification about TCS salary structure Job level offered is C3B

1) Monthly performance pay is 9.25 percent of CTC. Recruiter is saying this is fixed salary. Is this component always fixed or there are scenarios when company can deduct this? Even if one is on bench, is this fixed?

2) Performance Bonus / Quarterly variable is 12.7 percent of CTC. Is this too high or standard for all people at C3B level?

3) Together both make variable 22% of CTC. Is it normal or too high?

I have not heard anything about that. Your state association will normally grant you a 3 month extension pretty easily. Most allow you to email them and request it and they will respond with an extension. It doesn’t buy you a lot of time through it really only can be used if you have 1 (maybe 2) parts left to finish.

Just had my principal call me in to talk for 30 minutes about how my manager is disappointed with my work. My manager has said nothing to me at all. I just want to cry and scream. CONT’D

Just learned today that client is cutting the budget and might have to let me go because of my manager rate. I know it's not me but i hate it when this happens because it triggers my anxiety.

Finding that I can't think of ideas/responses as quickly as before. And also sometimes what I say doesn't come out to make much sense. Not sure if this is the result of overthinking or something else.

I accidentally overshared information about having anxiety and trouble focusing with someone who is kind of important at the company and now I regret it. She never responded and probably forgot about it but my husband told me that I shouldn’t have done that and I shouldn’t share things like that with people at work unless you are really close with them and now I’m freaking out and crying because I’m scared she will remember that and tell my boss or other higher up people.

What’s the point of it all?

How can I keep myself from stress eating when I’m stressed out?

My therapist just told me I'm depressed..do you ever feel like they tell you things you hear a lot or could have figured out on your own? Like take care of yourself, it's ok to feel such and such, etc. I'm still newer to therapy so wondering if that's the common experience? Do you ever have moments where you're like wow that actually is eye opening and I wouldn't have gotten that from reading self help books and websites etc?
