What is the ultimate SDR burnout cure? I actually went to a yoga retreat, something I would have never even considered a few years back, because I just couldn't figure out how to reset. My headspace is constantly disturbed and stressed. Would you take this as a sign that this job isn't meant for you, or have you all been through this in the former years of your sales career? I really need to know it gets better.

For me, it's meditation, exercise, and strategic breaks during the workday. I also have super clear boundaries to protect my off-hours and I make sure to celebrate small wins helps shift pressure away from constant quotas. Also, having a support network at work and outside creates a buffer against stress and loneliness

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations. Older companies do whatever they can to pay you the least amount and get the max work out of you. Except our generation will just leave amid we’re being mistreated, not complain for 35 years making 50k and 0 advancement.

I left my job about a year ago to relocate, make sure it was the right decision and start a side business in the mean time.

I don’t have my side business listed on my resume because I don’t feel like I have enough positive “stats” to report yet given it’s new. Any advice or recommendations?

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?
