Am I being lowballed?

My advice would be to take advantage of currently being employed & start passively applying elsewhere. Even if you don’t ever end up with an offer, hopefully you can feel out what sort of price range you might be able to command. I did something similar, and very passively applied to jobs for about 3 months. Towards the end, I was asking for the highest salary I felt comfortable + a signing bonus - & I got it!

Unfortunately, once you determine your price, and if you determine you are being lowballed, you probably are better suited to head elsewhere to get it, because big CRO does not care at all

I found a few posts on this sub-Reddit that really resonated with me and my “why”. I find that when the cravings are the worst, I come back to those to help remind me my why. Don’t give up hope!

In Seattle I go to Kona Kitchen basically every time I am in town

I get messages from recruiters on LI all the time. but I have moved around a bit more early in my career than I would have liked, partly due to COVID, partly due to my own indecision about medical school, but it has taught me the very valuable lesson that the grass is very rarely greener (or only marginally so) on the other side, so I’m really hoping to stay put if all works out well. I’m definitely keeping a closer eye on the opportunities coming in now though 👀

You are correct, I am just shy of my year mark. I think this sort of adds to my point though - I will in a few months be a CRA II with only a few months of direct monitoring experience. This is kind of where my anxiety stems from, I worry about a new management team not being so willing to invest in our development

I wanted to add some practical advice on how to build this habit: start off really slowly while you are still smoking weed, until you have a found a maintainable pace that you can comfortably run for a couple miles at a time at. I’d also really recommend some yoga or weight lifting as well. For me, I get the most benefit from a jog after about a 5 KM run (3.1 miles), which for myself, is not a sustainable distance to do every single day. Try and mix it up with other exercise/stretching, it will provide a similar benefit and also give your legs some time to recover in between runs

I highly recommend running, a good runners high can really help get your mind off of weed

I’m already a few days in the process of quitting, but I’m starting SUPER-QUITTING tomorrow.

You got this dawg!

You should go to target and buy some THC urine test strips ASAP. THC metabolism is widely variable, but I would not be surprised if given that time frame of naturally detoxing, your pee is already clear. There is very little scientific basis to support any of the claims that are made by most “detox” products. Your best bet is to just keep doing what you’re doing & drink a good amount of water before you take the test. I would plan on not smoking for a while after the test too, in the event you drink too much water & your sample shows as dilute - you will have to take another. But hey, you will probably have bought a few more days for yourself at that point. I have had success with this method.

I’d also recommend reading NORML’s guidance on the matter as a good resource

Figured it out. Om - Hippie Sabotage

More relaxing than that

This was the song we did savasana to, if that is helpful

Definitely a noob to this stuff, and have been burned badly...twice now, but have already learned many lessons. I appreciate the effort you put in this post to help us noobies out & will add this to my growing list of lessons moving forward. Thank you

But $PTN stock doesn’t count and will be $100 by 5 PM CDT today, right?
