WHEN YOU HIT YOUR LATE 30S OR EARLY 40S, IT’S EASY TO FEEL LIKE THE JOB YOU HAVE
IS SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO DO FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. YOU’VE INVESTED SO MUCH
INTO GETTING TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY. EDUCATION. TRAINING. TIME. LOTS OF TIME.
MOREOVER, YOUR FAMILY IS COUNTING ON YOU TO KEEP EARNING THAT STEADY PAYCHECK.
QUITTING YOUR JOB

EVEN IF YOU HATE IT,

RARELY FEELS LIKE AN OPTION. BUT IT IS, AND IT’S ONE THAT CAN LEAD TO MORE
FULFILLMENT AND CONTROL OVER YOUR SCHEDULE. NO, SWITCHING JOBS MID-CAREER ISN’T
EASY. IT REQUIRES A LOT OF PLANNING, RESOURCES, AND A THICK SKIN. BUT TODAY’S
WORLD DOES MAKE IT MORE OF A DOABLE PROSPECT. ESPECIALLY IF YOU FEEL STUCK,
THERE ARE PATHS TO TAKE.

TIPS AND TRICKS
WORRIED YOU’RE NOT STANDING OUT WORKING REMOTELY? SCHEDULE A CHECK-IN
WHEN YOU’RE IN THE OFFICE, PEOPLE ARE EFFORTLESSLY REMINDED OF YOUR EXISTENCE
AND WHEN YOU’RE NOT, YOU MUST TRY TO GET NOTICED. SO, MAKE FRIENDS WITH YOUR
CALENDAR APP. “IF PEOPLE HAVE REGULAR CHECK-INS, THAT’S HOW THEY DON’T GET
IGNORED,” SAYS ABBY KOHUT, OWNER OF RECRUITING FIRM STAFFING SYMPHONY. “IF YOUR
BOSS DOESN’T SCHEDULE THEM, THEN I WOULD TRY TO ASK YOUR BOSS TO SCHEDULE ONE
FOR YOU.” THE SAME APPROACH EXTENDS TO COWORKERS WITH WHOM YOU’RE COLLABORATING.
YOU DON’T NEED TO SAY TOO MUCH OR TALK TOO LONG DURING THE CHECK-INS (EVERYONE
HAS STUFF TO DO). THE REAL POINT IS TO GET EVERYBODY IN THE OFFICE TO KNOW
THEY’RE GOING TO SEE YOUR FACE AT A CERTAIN TIME ON A CERTAIN DAY EACH WEEK.
HERE ARE A FEW MORE TIPS TO STAND OUT WHILE WORKING REMOTELY.
