I have wanted to be in the trades since I will a child. In highschool I was pushed into university and away from mechanics. After 4 years of struggle I finally decided to just to work and figure out a new plan. I was surrounded by tradesmen and knew I wanted to be on the tools and yet didn't know how to get there. I waited 5 years for my company to give me an opportunity at an apprenticeship to no avail. So I took my savings and went back to school for electrical. Still trying to find work.

Struggling accepting I may have to cut my salary 10k-20k in order to do that…

I’ve been at my company for 10+ years. I’m not happy with the culture but have flexibility I enjoy, seniority for the time I’ve been here, and pays well. An new job opportunity came up as a Tax Manager but in a different industry which could expand my skillset in different ways, but is not as flexible and the pay is 20k lower. If I stay, I will be Director in few years. What will look better on a resume in the future, continued growth in 1 company or experience in more than 1 company?

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?

I’ve always wanted a partner who was smart and capable, but the people I’ve met who I’m drawn to on paper are always arrogant and off putting. Is there something wrong with my type of my selection criteria?

I’m in the middle of moving by myself. I’m job hunting, because I lost my last one. My relationship has basically imploded. I sleep a lot on a fucked up schedule because I’m depressed but I can’t afford help, and I only get it when insomnia gives me a break. I’m so done and over all of this. I have so many heavy regrets. Idk how to carry all of this.

This creepy that I have in the office!! Talking to himself wth!!

10/06 Thread (BC):

My title is a Project Engineer which, in my field, is a couple steps below a Project Manager. I have been drafting for almost 10 years, I have a PM certification, and I have 2 years of experience. I tend to pick up on anything construction fairly quickly but I am unsure what to ask for a salary in my coming review. (I had a career change two years ago when I was told I topped out at my last employer.) I fear I am paid less because I am a woman. I am the only female in my department. Salary??

👋 Just curious if any of you guys had field teams working through the entire pandemic? One item I struggle with is the difficulty in our changing culture for work life balance but the construction trades being left behind! Do any of your companies offer anything special for field teams?
