I know this isn’t sales specific but I see a lot of managers in this bowl and I wonder if someone can weigh in or give insight. My boss really seems to think I am dumb, and Indo not know how to disabuse her of this. She is quick to assume Im wrong about a lot, and when I correct her, she never acknowledges her shoot first ask questions later style. Does anyone have a similar experience? Any advice? Thanks

I've never had a manager like this but I have met people with this personality type. It's so important to remember that it has everything to do with them and nothing to do with you. Try not to take it to heart, just keep your head down and get your job done.

Thanks for weighing in. I will try my best!

I’m accustomed to keeping my students’ IEP folders in my classroom & being held responsible for their safekeeping. Now in a new district, I found that the Case Manager keeps all district IEPs in her office. We have to submit our updates & progress notes to her. And we have to make a planning period appointment with her to come look at any IEP folders. How does your district deal with IEP folder custody?

Anyone have experience with Keeps? Does it work? (M 30’s here)

I left my job about a year ago to relocate, make sure it was the right decision and start a side business in the mean time.

I don’t have my side business listed on my resume because I don’t feel like I have enough positive “stats” to report yet given it’s new. Any advice or recommendations?

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations.

Except our generation will just leave amid we’re being mistreated, not complain for 35 years making 50k and 0 advancement.
