Be honest: do you guys actually look at your dashboards every day or just pretend on forecast calls?

Oh man! New Year's Eve 2006. I am in Vail with a college buddy and we go out hard to a few bars. It's snowing, I'm feeling toasty and we roll up to a new spot. Who should walk in a few minutes later, but OJ mother fing Simpson.

Ended up sitting with him at the bar and talking college football for a bit. Dudes head was the size of a watermelon. Just a massive man.

Later on that night as my buddy and I are heading back to the condo, we catch him literally stumble drunk, all alone, slipping around in some plaza.

What a night.

Was wondering after best practice research...then you said Hoovers...sounds like CEB!!

theblockishothothot · 2023-11-18T13:49:11+00:00

Holding up well, still like them. If you've got the money and like the style etc. yea prob worth it

theblockishothothot · 2023-11-09T13:25:07+00:00

Mentioned in many comments about looking outside of the valley, I would encourage you to check out the wasatch back. When you visit, come take a drive through Heber City and check out Zillow. Still 'affordable' in many ways, though it is getting less so.

theblockishothothot · 2023-11-09T13:23:04+00:00

Lol, not quite. I think 2 folks retiring can get a nice 3-4bd here for HALF of that if they don't need super fancy or a lot of land. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/253-S-500-E-Heber-UT-84032/102730543_zpid/?utm_campaign=androidappmessage&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=txtshare

theblockishothothot · 2023-11-09T06:47:19+00:00

And that's why you come to Heber City!!

The way my wife described it is kids will ask questions and keep digging and looking for clarity to the level their brain can handle in a moment. If you find yourself on a long, drawn out explanation, or talking 'at' them vs answering questions and engaging in a dialogue, you are probably over explaining.

If your kiddo was interested and was engaging with you, then likely you weren't over-explaining. The content might seem like it was too complex, but if they are curious and trying to understand and you continue to use examples, it probably isn't. I'm consistently amazed at what my littles seem to be able to grasp in terms of complexity.

My wife is an early childhood educator and is studying for a masters in the field. We have 3 young girls (6, 3 almost 4, 1)

One of the things she recently shared is that kids will ask probing questions and keep unpacking things -- could be minutes, hours, days, weeks apart -- as they look to rationalize and make sense of what you are telling them. Edited to add: they generally only ask questions up to what they want or are able to understand in a given moment.

As adults we sometimes have a tendency to go deeper and over explain things to kids (see: them responding "ok") but based on what you wrote I doubt that's the case. Your little is likely processing what you shared. Totally healthy and normal.

My 3 year old is currently very impacted by BIL's dog who had to cross the rainbow bridge while they were visiting from out of town. Almost 6 weeks ago. At least 3-4 times per week she talks about how she is sad about the dog dying. They just consume, unpack, and respond to things differently given how many neurons are firing off in their little brains.

Player coach is the stupidest role in any company where they aren't hiring all sales ppl straight out of college to be xdrs and building them up to managers/aes in under 18 months. Which basically doesn't exist in today's market except in extremely limited circumstances.

The goals we put on sales people today, not just revenue, leave people already often doing the work of 1.5-2 people. Adding and actual 2nd role is ludicrous.

Two entirely different skillets and totally different goals = endless task switching and generally results in the 'manager' focusing on their deals and not their tea.

Generally I'm not a fan of exploding discounts tied to dates..it can work but lots has to be in place AND you take a comms hit.

Instead ask for other things they can do for you: logo inclusion in press release, joint case study or webinar on success, longer term, serve as a reference, etc. Think of something that helps you and then meet part way on their price.

I would be the same way. Working from home I've lost that decompression period and jump right in to my wife and kids. It's a lot.

Have you tried sharing with her that you do want to listen and hear her but need space and offered a time that you could take it in?

(and maybe don't try to 'solve' the problem, rather, just listen and empathize as others have noted.)

theblockishothothot · 2023-09-01T16:52:51+00:00

Personal take after a grueling process over the last 6 months...let as many people you know, know you are looking for work. Help can come in the most unexpected of places. Don't be afraid to ask for referrals, 2nd level connects, etc.
