I hate that Sundays feel like countdown days now. By Sunday afternoon I am already thinking about meetings, deadlines, and inbox volume. It makes the weekend feel half gone. What actually helped you stop Sunday work dread?

I would love to know the secret to this, because I still get the Sunday scaries. I'm pretty sure the answer would be a 4 day workweek. One can dream I guess.

Lately I’ve just been too busy with my kids and all their weekend activities to worry about Monday. It’s hard to get the Sunday scaries when all of a sudden you look down and it’s 11 o’clock at night. Monday just sneaks up on me now.

I feel the same way. It's almost like half my weekend doesn't really exist because I'm spending it thinking about everything that needs to get done. So is it really a weekend? I tried to distract myself with activities and chores, but nothing really helps.

I usually just ignore all work thoughts
I work hard to disconnect work and home so I can live my life

It’s super hard but I just burnt out and it clicked a bit better

Do companies hire for AWS profiles with good packages at beginners level?

Hey all, having issues with interviewing this year. I’ve been passed over every opportunity I really want and I’m unsure how to regroup and move forward. I’m really trying to break into method development roles and I haven’t had the opportunity to do so with my analytical experience. A lot of my HPLC and LCMS experience is with already established methods. Any tips?
