I am burnt out beyond measure. Used to survive tough phases with long hours but just can’t anymore. Having trouble sleeping, enjoying anything else or even focusing on tasks even if it is just to get done.

Has anyone tried Peter Shankman’s ADHD coaching? Thoughts, experience?

Shoutout to my fellow immigrants who have to worry about their legal status on top of all their professional commitments. I feel like we don’t get the support we deserve sometimes, especially with all the Covid backlogs, and that can be very frustrating.

Sending everyone here good vibes. Good things are coming your way!

I've struggled with excess for as long as alcohol has been a part of my life. I'm at a low point after having too much on Sunday, being unproductive on Monday, and barely sleeping. It's this moment that makes me want to finally change. But I know when I'm feeling better, I'll think I can do this all again and next time it'll be fine. I've read tips here for being better and will try my hardest. Tia for listening.

I’ve been on the same dose of Vyvanse since fall 2019. It still works. I notice a difference when I don’t take it. But I think I miss the rush I used to get when I would feel my meds kick in — like I could handle anything and I knew my meds were working. That plus the hyper focus that was still within my control (not the time blindness hyper focus where you fixate). Does anyone still get that? Is it worth trying to change my meds? Or is this just what it feels like to be “normal” now?

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and just started medication treatment, and I didn’t realize something was missing this entire time. My brain finally feels so calm!!

Why do employers put “Entry Level” and then require a Bachelors degree and 1-5 years of experience? It makes it hard for those of us with 7-10 years of experience to get a position because we don’t have a $150k piece of paper.

My tech company is looking to diversify and I was wondering if there is a site that caters to diverse candidates. Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

How to push for promotion? I am doing much more and much better than peers at the level above me. Ie: level of hires, time to fill, number of hires, building partnerships with internal stakeholders. Being recognized by candidates, hiring managers, nominations for awards each quarter, winning a couple. Been in this role for 1 year, foot on the gas the whole time.

So many walking dead in our office... take the fact that there is no work, add to that the pipeline is dry, plus the reduction of benefits everywhere you turn, and it's no wonder.

Dear Fishbowl PPCers I need your help!

A client is insisting we used Adobe bod manager for their campaigns, and neither me nor my team have experience with it.

We're also not on a timeline where we can really get up to speed on it ahead of a couple deadlines.

I've also argued for budget for external consulting hours and that's been disapproved.

I'm on my own. Or am I?

Hoping some kind soul with experience managing Google Ads through Adobe can help me out.

Avenue 5 is the most brilliant piece of TV I've seen in a long, long time.

Also, I once ghosted an ex after I realized that I couldn't stand talking about her puppy's "idiosyncrasies" for another second.

Women how would you react to this- I’m talking to a woman with a child. Really into her and we seem to be really compatible. I told her today that I wanted to take care of both her and her child, I invited her and her child out on my boat to go tubing and more. Continue in comments

I am officially a CPA!!!!After all the long nights and nonstop failures I can finally say I have achieved my goal of getting this certification. Just practicing for when I actually do pass.

Every person on LinkedIn who adds "innovator" to their headline are the least innovative people I've worked with: a CIO who is narrow-minded and stuck in his ways, an inept account manager, the least competent person on a former team of mine...

Please stop self-proclaiming you're an "innovator".

I LOVE to work. I dislike not having anything to do. But at the same time, I feel like there is no job that fuels my fire long enough 😩

I think I’m too academic now…
MBAPPE is not a French football player anymore but two prestigious degrees (an MBA and a PPE degree from Oxford)

I hate my job. Absolutely despise it. Wake up/go to sleep every day with a heavy dread for the future. Grind my teeth in my sleep. Gaining weight. Blood pressure spikes whenever my phone goes off. Becoming unable to hide my disdain for coworkers and clients on calls, emails, etc. Have a loving and supportive partner but feel like I can't relate to her at all because she enjoys her work. I don't want to go back to my post-graduation poverty but damn, at least I felt like I was a real person.

I have my Masters in HR and my PHR but I don't think HR is for me, or I may not have the confidence for this role. I want to quit my job and live off my savings which can hold me over about 6 months, but then what??

I miss college so much 🥲
