Smh. Men always want women to be feminine until they start acting like some girls.

Don't you eat everyday? Yall can't grab breakfast, lunch or dinner at some point in the week...outside of the house? Doesn't have to be anything elaborate, just a quick meal.

Perhaps you can make some flashcards and ask her to help you study. Integrate her into some of your studying (if she doesn't mind). If she's into parties, couples dates, brunches, etc, dedicate a weekday/end a month and get it all in, at least it's expected and you can plan around it. You could add in a compromise of building in a block of study time, say if you go away for a weekend.

Don't let education or work completely get in the way of nurturing any of your relationships. It's understandable not putting in as much time, but falling back altogether, isn't good, imo. The sooner you maintain a balance between upgrading yourself and managing relationships, the more enthusiastic you remain about becoming a better individual.

LOL you're not going to be any further away from your goal because you went to brunch with your lady one day.

You sound like Giselle trying to keep Tom from that $2 Billion. :beli:

:troll:

There was a meeting about this new project that we're supposed to work on, which is supposed to be highly important and our team was "hand picked" to work on. I wasn't invited and my boss says I'm one of the higher performers and thinks highly of me :skip: . I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.

Damn near next day or with a couple days.

I stopped applying because they kept asking for interviews.

i swear some ppl just are not aware when they are interviewing. i interviewed 2 people on monday

one was a good interview and most likely will push along in the process

the other, dude pretty much sealed his fate answering the first question i gave him, i asked him why did you apply for this position? Man mentioned to me he was looking for better work life balance so he can have more time to work on his art :hhh:...on top of that didnt even send me an email thanking me for the interview like the other candidate

Do any of y'all make any content (podcast, videos) for your career? For example pushing content on LinkedIn, 3 - 5 minutes for some tidbits of information for your clients, peers, etc? I've been thinking about this but I wonder how impactful it'd be.

For a bit of context I'm in tech sales.

I've also had the same thoughts. It might be worthwhile to build your personal brand.

Yeah - some of the podcasting stuff isn't expensive in the long run. My last job I expensed a Shure MV7 which was $250. I got a webcam. I'm trying to decide if spending $200 on an amp for my mic is worth it depending on what I'm doing.

Interesting enough I'm going to be on an internal podcast for work to recognize me which I think will be good to blast on LinkedIn.
