Is anyone else dealing with a workplace where the energy shifts every hour? I’m trying to stay grounded, but the unpredictability is exhausting. How do you get through days like this?

I did not do well! I’m not used to that kind of work day. I had that my last year in the district I was in. I was assigned to an elementary school w a knew principal who only worked high school. Anyway, our spec Ed director left for the ISD and my direct boss retired at the young age of 71 the previous yr so lots of change as well. It was too much! I took an early retirement which I honestly thought I’d regret but my husband was onboard so. Do not regret it one iota lol

I do remember taking quick breaks to my car and back. The fresh air esp in the winter really helped, for me.

In solidarity I hope you find some semblance of peace. 💛

Yes! Incredibly hard to stay motivated and engaged when you’re constantly worried about what mood your team is going to be in. My hope is that my next team will be better…

Hello fishes,

I am new here. This is my first post.
I am a b.tech + mba (tier 1). I joined my first job in 2009 and still in the same company. I am into marketing especially digital marketing.

As I have never switched my job in last 13 years I know I am paid less than industry standard.

I just want to understand what should be my salary as per industry standard as per my education, experience and profile (marketing)

So something crazy happened to me last week. I was at the airport, and as usual on call after call. The check in line was going ridiculously slowly and at some point turned threw my hands up in frustration while looking around to find another place to check in. In doing so, I catch the eye of the behind me. He smiles and says something. I just sort of nod and carry on with my call. After that, he keeps trying to talk to me, eventually I got to the check, say bye and leave. At security… tbc

I'm an RN of 7 years, experience as a coordinator, on committees and do all the things. But now I just don't want to go to work anymore. I have anxiety every morning over nothing, just having to go perform my job. I could do my job in my sleep so I'm just lost and confused. My body is clearly sending me messages to leave. But where do I go? I think I need to step out of patient care.
