My Journey from Dead End Job to Success
passit1 Wrote:Resubmitted task 4 of the capstone yesterday - praying to the gods of academia that it passes this time. The burnout is getting really tough between the job/school/family. Hubby has stepped up and is doing almost all of the parenting & housework while I struggle with school & work.

Task 5 is almost done - it is a multimedia presentation about what I've learned from the MBA program, task 4 and how I'll be applying these concepts to future professional development. Powerpoint and speaker notes are done. Going home to record myself presenting it now and then I'll upload it.

The MBA work is hindering my ability to catch on at my new job the way I need to. There is no time for data analysis or thinking about improvements while running shift, it's just too busy. Days off are full of MBA homework so I don't have my analysis and information for meetings at work and the managers I report to are wondering what's up. Bit off far more than I can chew and need this MBA stuff done and gone ASAP.

If you were to do this differently, would you have postponed the capstone or maybe the entire MBA? To me, family and work are more important than school. Are you at-risk of being let go at your job?
TESU BA CS and Math (graduated December 2016)
