Our data director will not stop talking. Constantly. About the most useless shit. He also takes forever to get to the point. I now wonder if he got the job bc they just wanted to shut him up.

Wtf is a data director?

Sounds like an extrovert who’s talking out their thinking. Can point out that you’re happy to help them work through their thinking separately, but the focus of this meeting is a, b, c...or...pause, gather your thoughts and we’ll come back to you.

He's definitely not an extrovert. I think he talks to overcompensate for crippling social anxiety. He once spent 30 minutes in a meeting slowly telling a story about ICE raids. Everyone in the room was looking at each other like wtf? He's a nice guy, but he really doesn't get social cues and is constantly going off on tangents at the worst possible moments.

Hello! I’m currently a Administrative assistant now working at a major medical system in Baltimore. I’ve previously worked for 10 years as a medical assistant in a variety of specialties and primary care. Lately, I’ve been feeling a bit stuck as to my next step. Part of me want to go into management, another part is saying go get your RN, and the other is saying go into Social Work. I’m all over the place. Any ideas? And how would I be able to cross over to management?
