retired consultant advice 2: clients often do not understand their product and business, and often misunderstand the signals reflected in their reports (which are often inaccurate or don’t exist).

Is there anyone who works for Google or Amazon and has a healthcare background with no tech skills? I have my MBA with a healthcare concentration and I’m looking to switch industries.

Can I export a list with all emails I sent for the month? I would like to use it to compare to my billed time to make sure I don’t miss anything.

Alternatively, do you have a good way confirming you caught all of your email time?

I've been at this job for almost 5 years now, and ever since the day I started, there have been problems with my coworkers. It's not just one person—it's everyone in my department, and they all seem to be working against each other instead of together. Should I leave?
