How do you sell yourself in interviews when you’ve been missing quota but it wasn’t entirely your fault? My last org had product issues and constant comp changes, but I know how that sounds to a hiring manager. I’ve got the skills, the work ethic, and strong customer feedback, but I’m struggling to tell the story without sounding like I’m making excuses. Anyone been there and landed something better?

Stress is causing a massive flare-up of racing thoughts recently. I feel like it's been at least a week or two since I last was able to completely clear my mind. And if it's not random stream-of-consciousness mess, it's music. Ever had a song stuck in your head? Because I've had one for four days now. Driving me nuts. Anyone else struggle with this/have a solution?

Otherwise your sinuses will become increasingly VIX allocated over time.

Curious to hear more details though, both for specific DOJ components and other agencies!

Best practices to avoid burning out in FDD?

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster. I’ve barely taken any days off this year and pick up “skeleton crew” days any chance I get. I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations. Older companies do whatever they can to pay you the least amount and get the max work out of you. Except our generation will just leave amid we’re being mistreated, not complain for 35 years making 50k and 0 advancement.
