I know there wasn't a Weekly Recap the past two weeks. Don't worry I have excuses: Ryan is super busy and I'm doing this for free and only have so much time. I know you don't care so let's get to it.
Here’s what happened this week on Brazen Careerist:
Featured Posts
Don’t Cry at Your Desk
Sure you might be having a bad day at work for whatever reason, but as Aurora Meyer discusses in this post, it makes you look like an emotional wreck. Not the right image you want to convey to your boss and company. Have you ever felt like breaking down at your desk? Share Here >>
Is There Really No Such Thing As A Stupid Question?
After a trip to McDonald's for breakfast, Jake LaCaze is tempted to think that some questions really are stupid. What do you think? Share Here >>
We Are Women, Embrace It
This post from one of my favorite bloggers, Emily Jasper writes about gender dynamics in the workplace and how women can still be women even in positions of power and authority. She has some great suggestions about how women can overcome the stigma attached to being ambitious. Share Here >>
Our Crowdsource Your Career Video Recap + What Should We Do Next?
The Brazen Team has put together an awesome video recap of their call to get together with people in your city and discuss challenges in your career. Did you participate? If not this video will get you pumped up for the next event. Share Here >>
Network Conversations
Quitting Your Job
David Spinks asks a very simple question: when should you quit your first job? The result is a great conversation going about growing professionally, networking, and boredom. Why did you quit your first job? Share Here >>
Checking emails on vacation
Some people have strict rules about checking work-related email while on vacation. For Ryan Paugh the simple act of checking email once a day made it far easier and less overwhelming to jump back into work the following week. What do you think? Pure craziness or smart way to fend off stress? Share Here >>
How did you find your job?
This question has been on my mind for the past year or so as a college graduate as off last December. Turns out it's a hot topic for others as well. Katie Weilbacher wants to know if you found your job through networking, job boards or some other way. Share Here >>
Starting a local theater company
My boy Ty Unglebower is in the early stages of starting a local theater company and needs your suggestions for free venues to perform in. Put your thinking caps on people! Share Here >>

Alright buddy, settle down, we won't call it a comeback! I think you did a great recap - Emily Jasper's piece definitely caught my eye this week as well. And thanks for the mention :)

Cameron, I really like how you've structured this recap post. It's well outlined, gives a brief description of the highlighted posts, asks questions, and encourages more reading and comments with the "Share Here" hyperlink.
While looking over this recap post, I thought of the "half life" or "flash in the pan" existence of a post and its comments. What is it - a day or two? The weekly recap post may be a step to change all that.

Thanks for that mention.

Thanks for all the great posts and conversations people!
@Mark, this is definitely suppose to help posts stay relevant, longer. Thanks for noticing! :)
