WEEKEND SAFETY BRIEF:

Don’t add to the population.
Don’t subtract from the population.
Stay out of the hospital, the newspaper and jail.
If you do end up in jail, establish dominance quickly.

Can we partake in the activity that adds to the population but just don't make the deposit?

Great advice from a recruiter 😂

Recruiter is happy if you go to jail. He will get a commission to replace you.

🤣🤣 one thing I’ve learnt over the many years of working is, I work no more than 40 hrs. wkly, and in return they pay me for that time. Employers DGAF about me, my bills, my struggles etc. When my pay affects their or their shareholder’s bottom line and they tell me “time 2 go” or “budget cuts” etc. it’s time for me to go. I’ve seen employers post “confidential” job post to replace folks who are not even in jail, I’ve also seen them post job openings when a person dies, even before their body hits the dirt, so if I end up in jail, I expect nothing less from them. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Received an offer as Engagement Director from Salesforce (CSG, pre sales, L9). Great benefits package, 40% increase in total comp and better WLB.

I do love the people in my practice and current client, but career trajectory has stalled after taking parental leave earlier this year and (yet another) change in leadership.

Realistically, making to Director is 2-3 years away and will require sacrificing time with my family that I am not prepared to give up.

Should I stay or should I go?

What’s something a guy has said in a meeting you could never pull off as a woman? I’ll go. One time a guy creative was presenting his work and said “yeah this was just me being lazy and not wanting to do any work” and he literally suggested we do the same ads as last year, with a different celebrity plugged in. CDs in the meeting laughed and considered it for a minute. If I had presented that and said I was being lazy, I would prob be put on the chopping block.

I made a couple errors at a new job. An important document to be distributed had wrong information on it, which was proofread by 2 other people. Then a couple of typos in emails, the person micromanaging me told me to send out but I didn’t fix the errors. Failed to meet a deadline but completed 95%. I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.
