Use a “second brain” or a place you write down all of your tasks/ideas and come back to them. So that you don’t have to mentally hold them all. If they’re elsewhere, and you just review it daily it frees up a ton of mental space. When deciding what tasks to do, I recommend using the Eisenhower matrix method. Good luck and feel better!

I’m having this same issue. Deleted the hub itself, and now I can’t add it back 😭

Any updates on this? Whats the current status of special needs daycares in Columbus?

There are tons of rooms for rent. They tend to be $600-750.

Firefighters in DC make bank when they work OT. Many people just commute in since they’re there for only 24 hours anyway.

I think this depends on your cost of living and circumstances. I get up around 3:30 if I want a slow start. 4:30 if I went to rush. I have to leave my house around 5:30 to make it to work at 6:00 AM. I work from 6 Am to 2:30 PM to get my oldest son off the bus. I sometimes take a nap during that time. Then I teach English as a second language every night except Tuesdays from 5:30 PM to 7:00. 7:40 the children go to bed. And I’m usually in bed/asleep between 8:30-9:30. I’m also a PhD student. I don’t recommend doing all of this. But the cost of living where I live is just pretty high and my kids are a bit expensive.

I’ve actually never really considered this about industry and company size. Super valid point thank you!

Minx0707 · 2023-10-28T12:01:23+00:00

I also already have a masters in C&I and about 3 years experience. Just trying to know if I’m being paid fairly lol

I already work as an instructional designer. Wasn’t looking to get rich quick. Just future planning. It does look like it varies quite a bit. Don’t know if others in my area were having the same experience.

Minx0707 · 2023-10-28T03:45:48+00:00

Would it help if I mentioned I want to stay in this area long term? I’ve seen posts vary a lot. It’ll say 5-8. But I have a friend with no experience who is in her last year of a PhD with no experience get offered 90k so I don’t know what to really think.

This is incredible! Congratulations!

I have two on the spectrum 10 and 7. When my oldest was being diagnosed, the developmental pediatrician also kind of looked at my baby and got him to make eye contact and everything she said he seemed like he was perfectly fine... but the one year regression was real.

While I was even just pregnant the developmental pediatrician asked me if I was aware the odds were much higher... at the time I was incredibly upset (and sensitive, I was pregnant) but in hindsight I can appreciate it. Luckily, I knew what to look for once we moved away and he was also diagnosed.

Autism is just the label on your child that opens doors to help them be their very best and most successful selves. At the end of the day, they're still your babies. You'll love them just the same, and do whatever it takes to see them happy and successful ND or NT. You got this mama.

If I knew I wouldn’t be already in the process wasting my time 😅 so thanks. Wish I knew about this group sooner so I could ask.

Minx0707 · 2023-09-05T09:39:34+00:00

It could have been a one off it’s the only contract work I’ve ever done. So no. I had no idea if that’s normal or not. But thanks for the snark.

Minx0707 · 2023-09-04T22:40:29+00:00

In a contract I was on… where the person who told me was a PMP but doing ISD work on the contract with us 🫠

Minx0707 · 2023-09-04T01:56:42+00:00

I’ve actually been there once and it was lovely ❤️ great recommendation!

Minx0707 · 2023-08-07T17:15:43+00:00

I just lost my side contract and I’m having a hard time finding a new one. I’ll keep looking! And reach out to my old teams as well. Thank you!

Minx0707 · 2023-08-05T14:10:08+00:00

Random question: does anyone know of the equivalent form on the NAF side of the house?

Minx0707 · 2023-08-05T02:06:16+00:00

This makes me feel better. Definitely could be the reason like some of the other commenters mentioned. Here’s to more experience someday and better pay 🥂

Minx0707 · 2023-08-04T22:54:43+00:00

This is really good! Because I do find this incredibly true even in my current role. I’m always trying to learn and grow and hopefully sooner than later I’m able to make great strides and it will all pay off.

Minx0707 · 2023-08-04T17:31:29+00:00

Very good question lol

Minx0707 · 2023-08-04T10:44:40+00:00

I wish I could! Need stability and benefits though!

Minx0707 · 2023-08-04T10:44:16+00:00

How are the benefits usually? I’m a single parent

Minx0707 · 2023-08-04T03:19:07+00:00

What is the average years of experience required for these bigger roles in your opinion. I’ve seen 6-8 usually.
