I consider this a safe space.. I’d like to ask all who would love to chime in..

How are you.. I mean really how are you?

I personally, am struggling to maintain balance in my personal and work life

One thing that’s really shattering me is feeling like your manager is direct competition with you.

Sighs !!

Agreed! It has to be a personality insecurity

I'm okay, more or less. I feel like I was in a bad place last year, I was really feeling frazzled and overworked. I was able to get some adjustments made at work, and set a few boundaries so I wouldn't let things get to me too much. So things could be better, but as of today I'd say I'm okay.

Setting boundaries is a huge feat I am proud of you working towards being and balance! Kudos to you!

Sending hugs <3

I'm not great, but it's sunny out so while I feel overwhelmed, I'm about to go for a quick walk to remind myself that I'm still alive.

I am in sync with you on this one the sun is shining and snow is melting I am going to step out to treat myself to fresh air. 💓

Tbh. It’s up to you how much you care. You need to be the ones to put the boundaries in place and the expectations on yourself. It takes time but that needs to be your focus.

Long time in the making; but we finally sold off from our 50% HWB short. We had two tests at the 3400 level, getting as high as 3420 today before the sell off. Momentum and pessimism over lack of stimulus could take us to the 3107 target quickly, nearly a 10 percent decline over the next month. Stay short my friends. It's going to get bumpy.

Microsoft is hiring an account executive and I’m really interested in the role. I have B2B sales experience in a different industry, but my skills include lead generation, prospecting, account management, negotiating, etc (all within the C Suite and other decision makers).

Would appreciate knowing if this is something I have a shot at with no tech sales experience and what I could expect for promotional opportunities and compensation.

Thanks for the help!

I am frustrated as a Gay Woman who has given her all for 30+ years grinding to be the best. I have been in closet, out of closet, in-between and am tired of it. I want to be VALUED as a human being. I have gone from Rock Star to problem when people "found out". I have trained and promoted hundreds of people and been passed over for promotions because of not being a man. I have trained men with less experience, worse results only for them to move forward. If Diversity is important...prove it!
