How's your work-life balance? I've been doing a lot of work this year to take a step back from work and focus on my family needs, and I'm glad I did, it's made me more productive, better with time management, and just a happier person. Anyone here done the same?

Yes same. In the new year I plan on rebalancing to add more hours but I’m taking all of December off to spend time with my family.

I am in a role where no one tells me to work crazy hours, but I do it to myself mainly because the work is challenging and I have a problem saying no. I am for the very first time taking this week off and that is mainly because daycare is closed, but will be trying not to peek at my emails or worry about projects. I would also say more than work life balance, it's about respecting boundaries that's most critical to mental health

I love my job in special education, the job may bring quite a bit of stress and exhaustion but nothing compares to the stress of the related service team. OT, PT, speech, BCBA, social worker, etc etc is really what’s killing me this year. It is 23 days into the school year and the team members all make different plans and as a result, nothing is being accomplished. And if paraprofessionals follow ie what OT says but not PT, it cause so much unnecessary conflict!

Any good startups to consider? Anyone have any insight or advice?

Just got offered a job at a small biotech in London (UK). ~£45k plus bonus but only 1YR FTC and no equity.

Pretty sure it's a discovery role too.

I think this offer is well below par, but curious to hear what you guys think/if you have any comparisons?
