My boss saw the meeting today, but he’s on vacation this week. I feel very attacked because when I was away, he set all the meetings to trap me but now he’s away like those meeting doesn’t even matter. And I feel like he’s gonna say it’s all my problems again.

Set* not saw

Huh? He made you attend a meeting while on PTO?

Theres* sorry many typos bc voice to txt

Sounds like you need to set boundaries when you’re out.

You should set boundaries with both - and maybe, just maybe - consider not using voice to text next time

How does one tell their boss (owner of the company) that you are burnt out? The sheer volume of work is exhausting and I haven’t taken a true vacation as we are a small company so if something urgent comes to my email I feel like I must respond. I was given an additional title and more responsibilities last year as well but only a 3% raise for it.

Hello! I’m based in NYC and looking for my next role. I work in the digital strategy/brand strategy space. I have experience across multiple industries (tech/telecom/Pharma (dermatology)/beauty and skin care and I am looking for a Director or VP role (my last job was a VP). I would like to keep my base of at least $180k (is this reasonable if I look for Director positions too?) Would love to land something soon before we hit the holiday season. Do you think what I am looking for is reasonable?

Moving from T2 to McKinsey. How do vacation requests work? I have family and friends getting married this fall in weddings delayed because of covid, but I’ll just have started so wanted to get a sense of how realistic taking vacation this fall would be and how to approach taking it (e.g. mention to HR, staffing). TIA!
