I started reading “the Tao of Pooh”, and I really just don’t understand why I can’t stop chasing after this “Great Reward”. I originally thought it was GC, because I was running away from my family of origin.
But now I find myself in this trap of hamster wheel where if I slack and don’t watch out for my “career growth”, I could end up not being able to even find a job.
My income increase becomes a cause for more spending on career coach, networking events & therapy sessions

So my boss texts me with hair on fire asking if this period (in a recent logo we just delivered) lines up with the text above. See the texts below. I had to zoom in 600-800% and set a guide to confirm that it is indeed 1/200th of an inch out of alignment. Do you guys get this anal? Is she justified? I have already had one heart attack. I won’t risk another over a gap that small.

I recently interviewed with an agency through a recruiter—the job posting, agency, and recruiter all confirmed that this would be at *most* a hybrid role (which to me means 2-3 days a week of in-office, am I wrong there?). I spent hours preparing for this interview only for the interviewer to show up 11 minutes late, blame it on “Zoom problems”, then say “we offer *two days of remote work per YEAR*”. I hung up and politely asked everyone involved not to contact me again. Unprofessional.
