Merry belated Christmas! I don't think I realized just how burnt out I was until I finally got a chance to rest. I'm grateful that we're not back in the office until the 5th, because I'm going to need every day of this break to recharge.

Me and you both!
Although I don’t feel I get much of a chance to actually rest, as everyone is off at the same time I feel myself socialising most days!

Cheers, same to you! I'm switched off from work. I'm not switched off from the job hunt. I'll be spending the weekend firing off applications and overhauling my resume. Looking to make a change in 2026 and that has to start now.

It never stops! Good luck for 2026 🫶🏼

I struggled to unwind over thanksgiving break; but I’m finding that this four day weekend is exactly what I needed

You too

I’m interviewing with the Deloitte and they’re taking an extremely long time. It’s for their internal strategy team.

Another role just got posted that I think aligns better with my skill set and something I would definitely enjoy more. 

what should I do? I’m still in the running for the first job but it’s ridiculously slow due to the business team being small. Ideally I would like at least one of these two jobs
