I did it, I took short term disability leave. I gave the partners so many opportunities to intervene as I told them I was burning out with a mix of being overworked, unappreciated and dealing with abuse. I’ve already started looking for other jobs, how do you think I should handle or what should I expect?

I took 6 weeks and it took 30 days just for the outlook twitch to go away and get out of the survival mode my brain was on. Highly recommend doing 2-3 months if you can swing it.

Shift your focus so that you are now the #1 priority.
Take this situation as a sign that something needs to change going forward.

I advise working with your healthcare team to develop a plan to become and stay mentally and physically healthy. Then plan your next career move around that wellness plan.

This is your chance to re-evaluate things and make a change to your home and career lives that will set you up for lifelong health.

Since moving back in with my parents, I’ve noticed their internet cannot handle three people working from home. Does anyone have experience relying on a mifi full time? I know the biggest downside is the data limit, but would I be able to get a plan that would suffice for my 16 hour-long busy season days? Help me, I’m a newb :)

I'm going to Machu Picchu next month with my brother and hiking the Inca trail. Any recommendations on what I absolutely need to bring for the hike? Anyone who hiked the Inca trail take like a battery pack or something with them for their camera?

Also, I'm considering bringing my drone even tho I know I can't take it into any of the sacred places like Machu picchu. I also have to register it with customs when I get into the country. Is it still worth taking? I can use it around Cusco and Lima

My PERM PWD was filed in early February and I’m still waiting. Almost all PWDs filed in the same month in my company have received determination, and all that are still in process are in the same department/team as me. I wonder what’s going on there.
What happens if a PWD takes more than 12 months to get approved? Would we have to file a new PWD since the 9141 wage survey is only valid for 12 months? (Feels like a PWD that takes >12 months to adjudicate would break the world record though).

Graduating with PhD in comp neuro next year. I just did a week long internship at MBB to check out consulting, which I loved but ultimately will not be accepting my offer for life considerations (my wife also works at MBB and we have young children). It was amazing getting a sense of what the work actually comprises.

Are there any similar day-long or week-long internship programs for data science? Would love to test it out for a little bit to see what I like/dislike.
