I started measuring the productivity of my weekends 😬. Never had this issue when I was working in the industry. How can I just enjoy my weekends without thinking of career stuff?

Put your career in context and ask yourself why you want to be successful at work. Then ask yourself if your life reflects the ends you defined for yourself and not just the means.

Put away your work laptop
Count productivity as time spent not thinking about work

Please expand on how you measured productivity. Like the idea - but can't think of a better method than just tracking hours and a subjective score

I lateraled into a niche practice group in Sept 2021. I also have a 1 year old and have been mostly remote since I started - but have been keeping busy tracking towards 2400-2500 hours. That said getting to know people only remote has been kind of awkward at times (email only can be tough to decipher) although as a working mom the pros vastly outweigh the cons. Yesterday my main partner asked me to come in Thursday bc he will be there and set a time to meet. Is this good/bad?? kind of nervous!

waiting on a final written offer, messaged the recruiter yesterday but received an automatic reply stating she won’t be back until tomorrow. Email stated to reach out to another recruiter for immediate assistance so I did. I emailed her , she said these offers do take some days because of the Hr and HM has to sign it. Once that happens my recruiter should send me the offer. Either on the day she comes back, but by the end of the week. I am going stir crazy, I really hate my current job. Help…
