How comfortable are you asking for referrals?

Hi fishies,

I am a digital marketing professional with 4 years of experience. I was really frustrated in my current job due to extreme level of micro management and no growth career wise, so I have resigned on 3rd October. Tomorrow, after a meeting with ceo I will get to know how many days of NP I have to serve.
It would be really helpful if I could get referral from you guys.

I am ready to take remote jobs & even relocate to Bangalore or Pune.

Thank you!

Would you recommend Sedona during Christmas or San Diego during Christmas with a 1.5 year old? Entertainment, safety, meaningful experience-focused.

Sedona will be much colder, possibly snowing/icy and will be hiking, hot tub, enjoying the scenery focused. San Diego will be beach, enjoying scenery focused. Both Airbnb options look beautiful. Will also have 60 year old grandparents joining
