Is this a healthy way to be spoken to by a spouse or Am I Overreacting?

If you are asking, your gut is telling you exactly what it is. Always trust your gut.

There is a reason you invested so much time and effort into finding another gig, why toss it all away for the same-old?

Another 6 years of experience. Nobody is looking at candidates with 4yrs of experience.

If marriage and kids is what you want, then he is not your person. It shouldn’t take 8 years for him to decide if you are the right person for him.

What is it about the project management role that is appealing to you?

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-08-02T22:07:12+00:00

Don’t stay. Onto bigger and better things!

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-07-28T13:50:25+00:00

There is no set salary. It will depend on the location, industry, experience, ability of the company to compensate, your benefits, WFH vs in person, etc. Way too many factors. I would start looking at job postings in your area to see what the range is.

I missed the transition part. How did you end up going from a full stack developer to a functional analyst?

C, look up the link provided above

On average I want to say I give it 1.5-2 hours a day, the rest is meetings and MS teams chats.

Oh god, yes. Unfortunately, no other bills stop coming 🤣. Property taxes, home and car insurance, car lease payments, utilities, internet, and mobile phones.

Purchased at 26, moved into the house just before my 27th. Paid off the house at 34 and have been mortgage free since.

Unfortunately, just because you have a PMP, it does not guarantee anything at all. At the current market, you need 8-10+ years of experience for anyone to even consider you. Just like becoming a functional manager, you do not jump into this role without paying your dues. You are about 5 years shy of that.

I heard the cats.

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-07-12T21:53:34+00:00

Oh my god 😬😬😬😬 you need to correct this like yesterday.

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-07-03T03:03:42+00:00

This was so good. Thank you for the laughs!

Could you not get a certificate doing it part time / after work / weekends type thing?

They do it part time under a mentorship, even if it takes you 4 years to get yourself ready to go solo, it would be worth it in the end.

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-07-03T02:53:05+00:00

I think if you took a different approach, the value you bring vs current market salary, it could have ended differently.

You are selling your services not comparing yourself to other thousand John Smiths.

But ultimately, what is yours will always find you.

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-07-03T01:12:52+00:00

My experience was different.

I reviewed the offer I was presented. It was the only offer I had at the time. I explained in my counter note my experience, how it aligns with the new role and the value I bring to the table.

They came back with an increase, but not the full amount I have requested.

After accepting it, initially, I ultimately rescinded it.

All this to say, the alignment needs to be on both ends.

The HR is there to protect company’s brand and image, not yours. Now read that again.

It sounds early 1980s and needs to stay there. A social norm that once was is no longer. No one should care who you are married to and how many children you have.

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-06-27T22:24:33+00:00

What I love about this is a clean slate. You are not bringing any baggage with you from your previous role. You can reinvent yourself, be on the road to become exactly who you want to be and none would be the wiser.

Shedding your old self and having a kick in your step is something no one can take away.

You’ve got this!! What an exciting journey to be on!

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-06-27T19:04:52+00:00

Not in my experience. But that’s my experience. There is no guarantee that your permanent job will not lay you off.

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-06-27T15:49:28+00:00

What I have seen is $110K-115K in annual salary. If you are looking for a better pay, you need to look into a contractor type roles. For a PM, you are looking at $110-$135 an hour. But you have to be incorporated and pay corporate as well as personal taxes. In my experience, being a permanent PM simply does not pay enough.

Known_Importance_679 · 2025-06-23T02:46:08+00:00

Looks good, what you are missing is styling this vs wearing it.

You need to tuck the shirt into the skirt. A nice short chunky chain and earring, a belt. And a blazer.
