    Ah, consulting life… in a way I’m lucky our line of work is so minor across so many projects that we don’t have many meetings. And our clients don’t usually keep calling again and again in the span of minutes D: they leave a voicemail.

    This is why we don’t let external uses contact us on Teams unless we set up a meeting with them, they should never be able to see our online/offline status

        BITTER TEARS OF RECOGNITION because that’s even worse in some regards

        I’m just trying to wrangle our consulting on two separate state gov projects and they are the most irritating and demanding with the largest volume of communication (that doesn’t get read lol).

          It is worse in a lot of way haha. But I would never go back to consulting! Depends on which gov department and who from the department you deal with, your experience could be very different!

          Btw I remember you were waiting for your PR? Any updates on that ?

            Yes!!! I mentioned it on the old DT before the blackout but I got my PR just over a month ago 😄 now I can decide where to go next! I’m thinking I might try a stint in local government
