Nothing like getting a text from your client at 5 pm on Christmas Eve asking you about something completely inconsequential on Instagram. No self awareness of boundaries. I’ve completely ignored it.

I NEVER put my personal phone number in my email signature. Only one of my clients has my personal number because of a time we traveled to a conference together. Boundaries are boundaries. You live and you learn. Don’t reply immediately in the future if you can and always say “we can discuss this more on x date"

Smart to ignore. Too bad you have to make up a new Instagram account now.

We have a rule about this kind of thing

I’m very sorry you work for The Grinch.
Ignore text. Client is likely hitting the egg nog a little too hard.

Hi All,
Just want your suggestion on this to help me decide.
I've been working in QA team for big data project and recently I've got offers from Startup and service based MNC as data engineer for the role of Data Engineer.
I've not worked on the actual development of ETL batches till now but I want to learn and grow gradually.

What kind of organisation would be best for me considering my mental health as well because I take too much stress ?

Thanks 🙏

I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!

How much of a pay cut are you willing to take to (hopefully) re-find purpose in your job?

My Context: work in tech, company has HQ in the Bay but I live in Canada. Single, no kids, 1 mortgage, no debts.

TC: ~200k USD (60% base / 40% equity). I put very low effort, completely disengaged and unmotivated, with anxiety building up. Don’t like the company, but very few companies can match where I live

I’m being offered ~110k to work more, better title, fun project and company

What’s your story?
