History Comes Inside! posted:I can’t tell if I’m just suffering from the standard imposter syndrome or if I’m about to finally get Peter Principle’d into an absolute nightmare scenario because people assume that the reason I come across as confident and capable is because I am in fact confident and capable, and not just because I’m very practical and don’t publicly lose my mind when things are going sideways.

My main use of AI at work is loudly and repeatedly demonstrating how stupid and incapable it is of doing rudimentary things we barely trust students to do. loving Copilot.

Free eggs from chicken-havers is the best random coworker giveaway. People seem to massively overestimate how many eggs they can/are willing to eat themselves and the scramble to find people to give them to every few weeks is always funny. My mother in law had a flock of ten and a household of four adults couldn't keep up. Now that we're not living with them anymore I would LOVE random eggs.

I don't like it because I'm not listening to what I'm saying either and trying to remember what it was makes me flustered

Chewbecca posted:The thing is she is doing this without being asked, which is different to being directed to do it - which the company would never do. She obviously feels pressured to work extra hours to get everything done, but I've told her that if things need to fall apart so be it, it's not her job to prop up an entire company. There are people paid a lot more than us who need to solve that problem. I had to shake my wife like a maraca out of doing this to herself constantly. She's hardwired to feel solely responsible for anything that she's involved in, and would work for HOURS past. Absolutely nobody at any of her jobs over the years asked it of her, and most were aghast if they found out and would try to convince her she didn't have to work late. It took regular therapy and ultimately ADHD meds to even take a bite out of it, and it still pops up every once in a while. She constantly chased a "I just have to get X done, then I can relax" but there's always another X. Apparently it started in college and rode right into the real world with her. Thanks for looking out for your coworkers health. Squiggle fucked around with this message at 15:32 on May 10, 2024 |

Chewbecca posted:I need to probably halve the amount of fucks I give and if it falls down around me it falls down around me. My friend, based on your posts the last few days/weeks: quarter them. The advice above is all good. Take breaks. No matter what. And if things have to fail, let them. It's not your sole responsibility to keep these morons afloat. And frankly, in the end, losing this job by whatever means will be good news.
