Hey, "World War 3" as a big concern for 2026? Yeah, I get why that's weighing on you—between the job stress, layoffs rumors, and all the headlines, it's easy to spiral into worst-case scenarios. The world's feeling pretty tense right now, no doubt.

Hey, "not concerned about anything"? That's actually a relief to hear especially after all the heavy stuff we've been chatting about (layoffs, job hunts, and now this insane Venezuela bombshell literally kicking off the year), it's nice to know it's not keeping you up at night. wish I could borrow some of that vibe. :)

Redundancy. My organization is merging, so there’s a lot of uncertainty.

Not finding a job. I decided to go ahead and go back to school and get my billing and coding certification. I have 12 years background in finance and 7 years in healthcare doing registration, scheduling, Insurance verifications, follow up revenue. I have my MA, phlebotomy certification as well. It seems like 150 people apply for the same jobs and I get a lot of emails saying they decided to move on with other applicants. Some jobs I’m over qualified or I have more than enough experience. It’s really scaring me to transition.

Biggest worry is the national security of the country, it seems we are waging war

How do you invest and save for your children? I’m thinking about setting them up with custodial brokerage accounts but don’t want them to have a heyday at 18. Did you create irrevocable trusts or?? They are too young for earned income and I don’t own a business so no IRA investing opportunities here.

I recently got a verbal offer from KPMG strategy. Is that more prestigious than like, most other firms? Like, I know MBB is done with recruiting; I feel like below MBB for name recognition is the Big 4 and other firms aren’t as reputable. I’m trying to decide whether or not I should interview and apply to other firms or just take this one (assuming a written offer ever comes along). Also, I prioritize work culture and exit opportunities over salary, but don’t want to be paid below poverty line.

HR opinion: Do I have any leverage as a hospital nurse case manager in negotiating earned time? I have 15 years within the organization, left for 10 months to be remote during the pandemic while sorting out childcare as immunocompromised family helped. Now HR is restarting my ET as a new employee. I realize I left, but not on bad terms and I am an exemplar and respected employee. I thought I’d have the upper hand with the nursing shortage but I’m getting the “rules are rules” response. Help!?!

Researching the job mkt & pay for nursing: It is so easy to set up a first interview esp. as a nurse. Set up a zoom meeting, in the zoom meeting ask abt job details and ask for the salary range. They will give it to you, and in my case it was the same range for both of the companies. (Hospice oncall nurse here👋). Then you fit in somewhere on that continuum based on education & experience—that where the negotiation comes in—they will make a case to place you as low as possible on the scale.
