Wise F šŸ  - negotiation help needed - my 57 yo stepmom is an associate VP at a hospital. Sheā€™s been offered her same role as .5 FTE instead of leaving outright. How should she negotiate scope of role?

You do need to negotiate the scope and who will be filling the rest of her responsibilities and if she is working.5 hrs what does that mean also so 4hrs a day would be important to know

If sheā€™s excited about part time more than challenge then she should ask for things which are mostly predictable, scheduled, known time. If she wants work challenges but doesnā€™t care about number of hours, keep the scope of work which is more strategic and complex projects. Either way, she needs to be good about saying no or she will quickly do more than 0.5 FTE work for half pay.
Iā€™d make a list of how she spent her time over past six months, categorize, and then decide which parts to keep vs give up.
Important to add filter of what work is added or subtracted uniquely because of coronavirus right now.

This assumes that sheā€™s splitting the job..which was probably wrong assumption on my part. If this is to keep job but not split work, she should again make the list of work and then figure out whatā€™s essential vs not. If a project/task doesnā€™t pay the bills, maintain compliance, source supplies, etc, it should stop. Again she will have to be able to say no in a thoughtful way.

Thereā€™s a potential guilt trap of ā€œIā€™m so lucky to keep my job right now,ā€ which is true. Iā€™d probably err on the side of over-working the half time/half pay out of guilty gratitude.

Did they not give a defined set of hours? Or days of week?

Sheā€™s a VP, so, no. This isnā€™t about schedule itā€™s about scope of responsibilities.

Whatā€™s she VP of?

Hi Everyone,
I hope life is treating you well.
I recently moved to Ottawa from Louisville, Kentucky, and I am looking for an accounting job in Ontario or Quebec. I have work experience in Tax& Finance and an MBA in Accounting. I was wondering if any of you could refer me for an open position in your company ( after weā€™ve had a chance to talk, of course) or put me in contact with a member of your hiring team.
Please let me know if any of you would be comfortable doing so.

Thanks,
Sarah

Hi friends, Got two offers. One with: Humana(Remote)[Insurance based company]and another with Mastercard(Hybrid) (Ofallon, MO)-need to relocate after 6 months. Both are for Senior software Engineer. Humana- TC= 155K, Mastercard-TC=175. Which is a better option, as talk are going on that, recession will happen soon. Iā€™m confused to choose, as some say Insurance company doesnā€™t get effected with recession. Please suggest.

My company is adopting Scrum and hiring a bunch of agile coaches to assist with sprints. We got assigned our agile coach that'll be starting soon.

I read a description of what this role is supposed to be for and it sounds like they'll be leading Scrum ceremonies. So they run the planning meeting, the retrospective and daily stand ups. Up to now, I've been doing those and it's taken a total of like 2 hours a week of my time.

What on earth do agile coaches do with the other 95% of their time?

Does it bother you when someone you care about won't let you treat them (like on special occasions such as birthdays and stuff)? I don't know why it's upsetting me so much, and I'm trying to figure out what the root of my issue is. I'm getting overly emotional about it. It makes me feel like I'm making it about me vs. them, which is not what I want to do at all. On the contrary, I want them to enjoy whatever I treat them to, but this is all backfiring because I can't control my emotions.

I just feel this overwhelming apathy towards everything, I donā€™t feel motivated to work harder at my job, personal life is meh, donā€™t remember the last time I was actually happy. The only thing that I remotely enjoy is working out, life seems pointless otherwise. I donā€™t know what is wrong with me?
