Hi! I am working on a new business idea but can’t get anywhere because I’m working too many hours (60+). I can’t quit working entirely because I need the health insurance (I have five kids and I’m a single Mom). Any ideas on a company I can work for where I can work ~35 hours a week so I can get the health insurance but still have time to work on my startup? I’m a marketer with 20+ years experience and an MBA but happy to do anything. Thank you in advance for your help!!

I was a month in as Workday HCM Consultant with Accenture. They immediately throw me into the HCM courses to obtain my WD HCM certification. There are three parts HCM Essentials, HCM Applied, and HCM Practical. The passing score is 70 or above. I scored a 62 on the Essentials portion, I passed Applied, and at the end of this week Practical. During class, I received an “immediate connect” Team call and I was fired because of my low score. I'm devastated, and shocked. Yesterday was my birthday.

However, I can't seem to land a senior role. How do I convince an executive to take a gamble on me based on my past success and strong future potential?

2nd post on catching covid

I am lucky to have mild symptoms.

I do have 1 symptom which is troubling. I feel extreme anxiousness. I have trouble sitting still and trouble sleeping. I have trouble concentrating. The doctor says anxiety is a somewhat common symptom and that Cedars Sinai is studying the potential for long term impact.

Anyone else experience this? I have never felt this before. I have a huge new appreciation for those who suffer from anxiety on a regular basis in everyday life.
