I’m tired of managing a PR crisis each week because OWG behaved badly and other OWGs won’t allow me to be strategic and generally do my job. Tired and don’t wanna face Monday.

Oh I don’t deem them that. They call themselves that. So no racism or ageism on my part. Just frustration that anyone even without the skills thinks they can handle my job. And then when it’s done against my guidance, there is surprise for the crisis. Tired of that.

Does anyone have tips for the structured interview process at a federal agency? I’m trying to transition from impact litigation at a non-profit to an agency focused on trade and consumer protection. I’ve received private sector offers but can’t seem to make it past the first round for federal government. I must have the appropriate credentials to receive an invitation at all and have researched behavioral interview prep—what am I missing?

I got a job offer for what seems to be a great company but I’m not sure if I would have the same life balance. I started interviewing as a way to see my worth in the industry. My current role is at a small company, and I’m not sure how I could grow within the role because Im not advancing my skill, I just do the same thing every day at a lower level. I like my current role because it’s flexible and I’m paid well for not doing very much work. Should I switch to a more rigorous job?

I’m on a team of workaholics. Currently based in central time zone and working for a West Coast client so my hours can be weird. Our team is spread across the country but I get pings at 6:30 am and people asking to call me at 8:30 pm. I’ve tried really hard to set boundaries and block time for myself but it’s constantly getting ignored and there’s no respect for personal boundaries. I barely even get outside nowadays but I don’t know what to do anymore.
