How far in advance do you guys plan days off of work? Sometimes I worry that if I plan too far out, I’ll miss important stuff at work I could have otherwise scheduled around.

I honestly don’t really take missing important work stuff into consideration when planning time off. I just make sure to give my manager plenty of notice, especially for a longer trip. For anything around 2+ weeks, I’d usually flag it a couple months in advance

Same here—I don’t mind if I miss something important at work. My time off is much more important

I used to do it for the whole year (needs must due to babysitting duties when my sister was younger) and now I plan just to my next holiday, either way works and work should bend to your days off rather than the other way around

It doesn’t bother me to miss things at work. Taking time off is much more important to me than not missing one important meeting

Need career advice. Trying to break into a finance role, preferably an Analsyt role but I have no transferable experience. I worked as a mortgage loan officer (which is sales) for 2 years after college, but since mortgage is such a niche industry, no hard skills transfer and have no relevant undergrad internships unfortunately. I know I can essentially get any sales job I want in finance IE: financial advisor etc. but don’t want to be stuck in sales forever. Any advice?
