When you have downtime at work, do you embrace it or do you try to occupy yourself? I’m kind of past the point of caring to generate work for myself. I’d rather just enjoy the slow days while they last. Fortunately my manager doesn’t expect me to stick around and look busy if I’m not. I would hate to have to sit at my desk pretending to be busy just for appearances!

Is work life balance really that much better in-house?

I just had an employee tell me they are on the verge of quitting due to burnout- actually going to quit but was told to talk to HR for options (we don't have any in place). The manager wants to keep them as they are one of our best employees.

Any recommendations on how to help alleviate burnout when the cause is from customers rather than the company? Is it worth it to let the employee leave and spend months looking for a replacement causing more stress/burnout with others?

I have a great relationship with my partner (work with him about 70%). I’ve always felt like he had my back. I wasn’t promoted this year which prompted me to start looking outside, there are other reasons too as I thought about path to partner, WLB, hot market. I now have an offer in the industry which is 100% wfh and in cybersecurity. Need help on how to approach the conversation with him? Where do I even start? I know there will be pushback/guilt and I’m dreading the discussion.

My two young toddlers are home from daycare for the next 1.5 weeks for the holidays, and I have off work to watch them.

Do you think using “him/her” for “he/she” (ex: “her is playing” “him not here yet”) is something that kids usually grow out of? Or does it need direct intervention? I have 2 students who exhibit this error, who otherwise should be dismissed. Normally I’d just keep them on and work on it alongside other goals, but they don’t have any other goals, and with COVID, and my upcoming maternity leave in March, a more compact caseload would be advantageous.

I want the title and the money owed which may be about $15000- 20000.
