Producers: How the HELL do you find time to workout or go to the gym? Are your hours just as out of control as mine are? Seems like things have certainly gotten worse. I just did three back to back jobs where I worked 20 to 42 hours straight. Please advise-

I have a rowing machine at home and I WFH, so I use it when I have free time. I definitely don’t work crazy hours and I don’t have kids so I know I’m privileged to have free time to work out, plus the space for a machine.

The week is usually fucked once you're working those hours, that happens if we're pitching 😭

I prioritize my workouts so I get them done and out of the way before work by waking up at 630am. I used to wake up at 5 🤷🏻‍♂️😭 Earlier means less people in the equipment, no interruptions, faster workouts. The downside is I usually start crashing around 3 or 4pm.

Alternatively you could look into body weight exercises at home.

Hi Everyone!

A company has made an offer and I wanted to understand if i'm being made a fool.

The monthly compensation is 1,37,500 (16,50,000 yearly) and Variable component (Bonus) is 1,50,000.

However in the offer it says "You shall be paid an annual compensation of Rs. 16,50,000/- per annum Cost to Company."

Which to me sounds like it doesn't consider 1,50,000 to be a part of CTC which is suspicious to me.

How should I deal with this?

Thank you!

There’s no reason you have to put up with a job you hate. I spent many years working in a toxic environment with a boss who gossiped and lead through fear. He wasn’t really much of a leader but basically a foreman. And he could make my existence miserable. I admit that it wasn’t easy to find another job but the bottom line is: trust your guts. If you feel something is wrong it’s because it probably is. Don’t second guess yourself. Look for options and and fight for your mental health.
