Have you ever had that moment when a coworker just snaps mid-shift? I watched someone throw down tongs and storm out after being triple-sat and then told to cover someone else’s station. It was messy, but honestly, I felt for him because there’s only so much one person can take before breaking. We’ve all been close to that edge.

I have been that person! It was more due to poor management than anything. It’s a lot of pressure and chaos on a good day. Something many of us can relate to, if not that person who snapped, then definitely somebody close to it.

Oooh yeah. The restaurant industry will break you. I’m a chill person but even so, I’ve had my moments where I’ve lost it and yelled at someone for just standing there and not working when the restaurant was busy. I am NOT a yeller (even though a lot of my colleagues are). Totally lost my cool. Thankfully 99% of the time I’m able to not lose my mind.

I’ve seen coworkers go at it about side work before. I’ve seen a manager get frustrated because I was waiting for a take out one time and I guess she was having a bad and felt like I was rushing her or something. But in reality the bar was dead and my other coworker was already tending bar so I mean there was nothing for me to do besides wait and run food.

I’ll get frustrated too. But I normally just save it to complain about after work over a beer with a friend.

I have not been on a project for over 3 months. Since I joined, I have been put in training. The training got extended by a month and now it's close to 4 months since I joined and without a project.

What should I do? People say that I'm lucky to get paid without doing any work, but it is stressing me out. I need the experience. The uncertainty is freaking me out, with rumours of layoffs and the certification program and all.

How do I get into a project? How long do I have to wait more?

Anyone else faced this situation in the past or looked at it more deeply? Recommendations for good lawyers for advice also appreciated.

Currently a Wealth Advisor for Citi but I honestly hate it here with a passion it’s the worst company I’ve ever worked for in my life and I’ve been in Wealth Management in the banking channel for over a decade. Series 7, Series 63, Life, CFP, ChFC, and soon to have my MBA with a focus in Mergers & Acquisitions. I’m look to enter another area of Finance at this point instead of starting over somewhere else from scratch, but not sure what direction to go. Interested in Investment Banking or M&A.

I’ve been in the industry for 23+ years, 16+ of those spent as a Producing Branch Manager. I hold S7, S63, S66, S24 and I’ve completed the education for the CFP (need to pass the exam). I excel in relationship building and providing exceptional service. I’ve only been on the full-service side for the past 2 years and my book of managed money is about $10M, with another $10M+ being self-directed by clients. I’d love to find an RIA job, what type of role would be suggested?
