Thanks in advance

I joined B4 2 years ago and now I’m a senior. This job is so hard on me mentally and physically. I had a mental breakdown in the last busy season. The only way I managed to take some time off was catching Covid. I finally reached out to mental health resources the firm offers but I keep falling into lows. Now I’m feeling mentally broken again for this spring and I don’t know if I can hang on more. Am I crazy for just wanting to quit right after 4/15 to step away from PA for a while? With no job?

30th birthday present watch accessory ideas.

A lot of knowledge on here so asking for some help. It’s my partner’s birthday and I’ve no idea what to buy him. He’s a watch fanatic - Pateks (sports and dress), Audemars (sports and dress), Rolex (sports), Omega (sports).

How do you handle people’s kids showing up on video meetings? Screaming, kicking, hamming it up, (wasting time.) Everyone else is coo-ing…I’m not a kids person.

Thoughts?
