How do you slyly tell your boss that you need more than five weeks off to film a hit reality T.V. show
Better yet, how do you explain that you won’t see your partner before actually saying “yes” to a marriage proposal, you’ll only have 28 days with them before you say “I do,” and you’re quitting your job to pursue an influencer career?

00:00 Honestly, I did not tell my boss that I was gonna go film a reality TV show because honestly
00:05 I just don't think that I would have gone over well. You didn't? No, I didn't tell them. I didn't know that.
00:10 I accumulated my PTO days and I was just like hey
00:13 I'm gonna be taking a long vacation and most of the filming the second half of it
00:18 I literally just worked throughout it. So I didn't have to tell them.
00:21 I was honest with my boss that I was doing a reality TV show
00:26 I didn't say it was Love is Blind because I feel like that would have been a whole other conversation about you know, getting
00:31 Engaged sight unseen and things like that. We were able to work while filming Love is Blind. So that made it much easier
00:38 And more palatable for my boss allowed me to take the time off for the show. I won't lie
00:45 It did impact me professionally a lot. I remember being in meetings with my co-workers and my clients
00:52 You could tell they want to ask questions and you know, I'd be doing a presentation or something and they're like so
00:57 How was it like in those pods?
01:01 I thought we're talking about like this Excel sheet that I spend like 18 hours on. My CFO wanted to put me in a commercial
01:07 I'm not gonna say the company but I was like, I don't think those two line up. Honestly, you'd be great
01:13 I thought about it, but I was like nah, I gotta get out of here. I gotta quit.
