  • PTO, Shame and Hot Dogs
    2026/03/04
    Pop the tab on something cold and settle in — it's time for another round of Drinks After Work! This time, we're talking all about:
    • Why unlimited PTO is actually an illusion of flex
    • PTO shame and why we hoard our time off like it's precious (because it is)
    • The unspoken rules that make taking time off feel like a crime
    • How working from home makes PTO guilt even worse
    • Planning, scheduling, and actually honoring your time off

    In this episode, Shannon and Deborah are joined by special guest Chris Coladonato (aka the Connection Catalyst) to tackle the complicated world of paid time off. From companies that give you PTO then punish you for taking it, to the culture of answering emails at 9 PM that trains everyone to disrespect boundaries, they break down why we're all exhausted and what we can actually do about it. Plus, some surprisingly strong feelings about hot dogs. So sip, swig, or chug — and get ready to:
    • Stop teaching people you're always available (put down the work phone)
    • Plan time to decompress after your vacation ends
    • Set up coverage plans before you leave (so you don't feel guilty)
    • Write an out-of-office that actually protects your inbox
    • Honor your time off instead of just scheduling it

    Because it wouldn't be Drinks After Work without the drinks, here are the FAB: Deborah: Out of Office — Coconut rum, pineapple orange juice (basically a piña colada for PTO vibes). Shannon: Maple Bourbon Smash — Bourbon, maple syrup, orange juice, lemon juice, bitters, muddled with orange slices. Chris: Guinness Zero (or Athletic Brewing Irish Stout) — Non-alcoholic beer for pretend time off. Resources: Chris Coladonato, the Connection Catalyst Be part of the Learning Rebels Community.

  • Phony Book Deal and Corporate Squid Games
    2026/02/11

    Pop the tab on something cold and settle in — it's time for another round of Drinks After Work!

    This time, we're talking all about:

    • Why forced team building exercises make everyone scatter like roaches
    • The difference between building culture and forcing "fun"
    • Stay interviews vs. exit interviews (and why timing matters)
    • When the CEO thinks they're everyone's buddy (spoiler: they're not)
    • How to survive mandatory team building when you'd rather be anywhere else

    In this episode, Shannon and Deborah tackle the dreaded corporate team building exercise—from rope courses nobody asked for to virtual activities that somehow make it worse. They break down why these forced bonding sessions often backfire, what leaders get wrong about culture, and how knowing your team's actual needs (through stay interviews, not mandatory fun) makes all the difference. Plus, they share survival tips for when you're stuck doing trust falls against your will.

    So sip, swig, or chug — and get ready to:

    • Learn what stay interviews are and why they beat exit interviews
    • Understand why series beats events for building real trust
    • Create your own team building moments (with people you actually like)
    • Make the best of it when you can't escape the corporate games
    • Recognize when leadership is too disconnected to plan effectively

    Because it wouldn't be Drinks After Work without the drinks, here are the FAB: Deborah: The Halo Effect — Half ounce of gin, peach liqueur, lime juice, orange bitters, topped with Prosecco and garnished with a flower. Shannon: Shaken Daiquiri — Bacardi, lime juice, simple syrup, shaken (not frozen) with extra lime for tartness. Find all our drink recipes and more at our website.

    Pop the tab on something cold and settle in — it's time for another round of Drinks After Work! This time, we're talking all about:
    • Coffee Badging: The office protest you didn't know had a name
    • Revenge Quitting vs. Quiet Quitting: When employees fight back (loudly or silently)
    • Rage Applying: Blanketing the internet with your resume out of pure frustration
    • Quiet Firing: When your company makes you so miserable you quit on your own
    • Why all of these "trends" are really just symptoms of broken workplace culture
    In this episode, Shannon and Deborah dive into the buzzwords taking over workplace conversations—from coffee badging (swipe in, grab coffee, bounce) to revenge quitting (bringing your whole crew with you when you leave). They break down why employees are resorting to these tactics, what signs to watch for if you're being quietly fired, and how to protect yourself when the workplace turns toxic. Plus, some real talk about blind spots, equity vs. fairness, and why documentation is your best friend. So sip, swig, or chug — and get ready to:
    • Recognize the signs of quiet firing before it's too late
    • Document everything (yes, screenshots count)
    • Start "quiet learning" on the company dime while you still can
    • Build your portfolio and LinkedIn testimonials before you need them
    • Know when to walk away—and bring your people with you
    Because it wouldn't be Drinks After Work without the drinks, here are the FAB: Shannon: Hot Apple Cider with Bourbon — Apple cider simmered with chunked apples, chunked oranges, and cinnamon sticks until reduced, then mixed with bourbon. Deborah: Pear Pressure — Vodka, spiced honey syrup, apple cider, lemon, topped with Prosecco. Resources: Fortune Magazine: Farewell, quiet quitting. 2025 could be the year of ‘revenge-quitting’ Be part of the Learning Rebels Community.
