Aw come on, no one is going to say how gross this is?

Exactly! I think it’s sweet that he wanted to make sure they knew, rather than me show up with a ring one day. ‘Asking permission’ i think was more his way of bringing the subject up. And I’m happy he knows I would prefer he talked to them first.

As a junior I find the hardest part of my job is scheduling blocks of time to do the work while also dealing with urgent things that always come up during the day.

I just want to do the work. How can I make this easier?
