Work is burning me out. My baby is not sleeping. The baby only wants me. I haven’t slept longer than 3 hours in months. I am so tired. Have to work during vacation in a couple weeks because that’s our lot this year. Send energy pls 😩

have you considered looking for another job and sleep training? Or sleep consultant? Hope you feel better - I was in the same boat and I recently changed job so at least it’s much better on that front.

We did sleep training at 3 months old - not the best practice for some parents but it worked out for us as we are both working parents… but I also exclusively pumped as baby couldn’t latch well. Nursing def makes it harder to sleep train. There are many companies still do remote setting - maybe a good idea to keep an open eye. ♥️

Good luck and be easy on yourself. Do what’s required of you over the holidays and no more. Focus on being with your family and resting when you can. Working with young kiddos is really hard but it’ll get better. Second the sleep training bit. Remember, you’re the best mommy for your baby.

So other than money (which is obviously very important) what’s the incentive to make partner? Is it crazy that I just want to do my work and go home to my amazing family without the added pressure of running a business and managing others? I’m only a third year (in a new practice area) so maybe the thought of being competent enough to ever be a partner just seems unrealistic. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

So I just moved states. I’m staying with a parent for a while in a pretty large house and my cat keeps hiding for hours on end (I think to snooze). Any thoughts? She’s spent time with me and I walked around with her while she explores. And she’s ventured solo. Seemed she’s warming up well. Except this again. I admit it’s giving me horrible anxiety that she won’t respond at all until I locate her because even I’m learning where things are and want her to be safe. This is the third time 😭

At each increment/appraisal management giving excuses for not giving a good hike they say kindly add more degree/certification to your profile
Why don't they advise these thing the whole year

They only give more n more load of work during the time and say take more responsibilities do work independently the more experience you have the bigger your ctc will be but things change

Would you say that you're genuinely liked by the majority of people at your office? I just don't really seem to vibe with many people...
