So, recently got put on a PIP after six months at my new job., two days after I told my boss and HR I recently learned I have a cognitive disability caused by an illness.

To clients.) and simultaneously ask more questions and ask fewer questions. Should I just assume this is unattainable and look for a new job again?

Advice on pivoting from staff augmentation as Voip SME/architect to DevOps and software? Wanting to transition from in person to remote/async work

edited: After 6 years of being self-employed, I’m considering what opportunities I could have in corporate.

I’ve been looking and seems like my skills don’t transfer well or maybe I don’t have the corporate language?

i absolutely cannot afford to “start from the bottom”

I’m just feeling exhausted from having an online business run on social media. oof.

Do I need to hire a career coach?

We need to STOP glamorizing overworking. Please.

The absence of sleep, good diet, exercise, relaxation, and time with friends and family isn’t something to be applauded.

To many people wear their burnout as a badge of honor. It’s time to consider pivoting.

And it needs to change.
