[query] Is it a good idea to say a firm No due to medical reasons to a new night shift project I'm hired in?Accenture
I recently got a night shift project (2 days ago) that requires me to work from 10:30pm till 7:30am
I'm not comfortable with these timings and I'm thinking to ask my manager to put me on Bench (Due to medical reasons that involve mental health)
Is it a nice idea to say a firm No to a new project I'm hardlocked into, due to night shifts?
I’m sick of living in NYC but can’t go anywhere.

So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android). I completed the coding assessment and now they want me to go through a round of 5 hour interviews next week. Is there a good chance I'll be hired if engineering managers are reaching out to me? I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

Feeling more confident is a great way to wrap up the year. I'm feeling some of that, I had a few things go right this year that I'm happy about. I'm not overly optimistic about 2026 in any rational sense, but there's just something about New Year's Eve that inspires optimism. Let's hope the new year is better than this odd one we're leaving behind.

It’s interesting how new years does that, instill a sense of optimism. There are some people who think life will just keep getting harder but our time is ever fleeting so I choose to be happy!
I'm more organized now than I ever have been, both at work and at home. I don't know when it clicked or why, but I just got sick of feeling like I was perpetually stuck in scramble mode. I've been more proactive in all walks of life this year, and it's made things so, so much easier on me.

That’s really nice, not feeling like you’re struggling is a huge deal. You want there not to be a challenge when you’re getting to a work task or some thing you’re doing, it either distracts focus or pleasure
