Sounds like you're pretty lousy - both at managing your time and maintaining connections.

Being at work on a Sunday, writing decks on mothers day.. CHOICES YOU MADE.

Maybe make better choices in future

Your family understands that they don't come first. A corporation does.

Once I spent the entire Mother’s Day weekend st the office working on a pitch because the MD asked me to. I had to delay my call to my mom and by the time I did she was asleep which made me feel a huge amount of guilt. Come Monday I kid you not the MD had forgotten that he had asked me to work the weekend and later on I was laid off by him because we lost the account.

Never again.

Went through the loop and got an offer but it was below expectations. During the recruiting process I was told it was a sr manager position, but when the offer was extended it was for a manger. I have a competing offer that came in after I already accepted the Amazon offer and now I have no idea what to do. The other offer is stronger but… I mean it’s Amazon. And if I don’t take this now I’m never going to get here again bc there is no way in hell I’m going through that loop again. Any advice?

Has anyone else had a really hard time online dating with Covid? I’m aware things are getting better but I prefer to do outdoor first dates to be on the safe side. No judgement to anyone that does differently. It’s just what I feel comfortable with. I’ve had a few guys tell me they won’t do outdoor dates for some reason… some have cited weather but others legit say no (in 70 weather) because it’s a hassle & “Covid is a joke.” Please tell me if this is normal.
