Tax season is probably the MOST stressful time of year for me -- 10 is an understatement! But tax season even stressed me out this much before I was in my current role so maybe it's just me lol

My first busy season at my current business last year was really rough since I was completely remote and had clients allocated to me who were well above my level of knowledge. I had no corporate or partnership tax expertise and was thrown to the wolves on a couple large clients. I've learned a lot since I started, and this busy season has gone much more smoothly my second time around with these clients, but I don't want to work these hours for the next 2.5 months. Not to mention how difficult the previous several years have been with the prolonged busy seasons and all of the new regulations.

Hi! I started at a new company 2 months ago and while I’m really enjoying my job so far, I’m having a hard time gauging whether or not I’m doing a “good job.” My role seems to be always evolving, which is fine and I actually enjoy being a support to the greater marketing team, but I feel like I need better defined targets to make sure I’m meeting expectations. Also, when I ask my boss what they’d like to see, I don’t ever get a clear answer. (Cont’d in comments)
