I've seen an increase in burn out comments recently.

Same. Lots of people asking for advice on how to cope and it’s simple. Stop working for 5 days. Use your vacation days. If you’re sick, take the sick day. Our org gives us community service days to, so go volunteer. Get away from the desk.

It’s that time of year. Huge stress to finish the year strong. It’s palpable where I am.

No marketing, mayo isn't an MQL
Preach, try to take some time off every quarter otherwise you'll be going full speed down slope burnout.

100% at the end of the day your loyalty should be to yourself and family first. That means taking time to recharge.
One of the most disappointing moments in my career was putting in extra work and busting my ass with the hopes of the company rewarding my efforts only to be given a pat on the back.
At the end of the day you shouldn't put yourself through additional stress unless you know without a doubt that you will be compensated for it and that the compensation is worth it.

True! And make sure your teammates know as well! Gotta be the change we want in sales. Don’t let sales leaders rob you!

How do you guys take vacations and still hit quota? Does your company offer any type of quota relief if you take a vacation?

Yes! This time of year I can't take more than a day or two at a time, so I'm going to be having some extended weekends. I'm looking forward to those.
