I just want to have a job where I’m just net neutral. 😫please help or advise

Bad how?

Bad like I will never be good at my job.

Fear of losing job.

Job = money

That’s the only reason I care. Job is everything

Outside of the job I’m confident and cool, and don’t care.

I just can’t be bad at a job cuz I need to float

We all can improve, none of us are perfect. If your manager is providing that feedback in a constructive manner, take the feedback and begin weaving it into your daily work life. If you look at this as a negative you will start making mistakes and make matters worse.

I'm sorry to hear that your manager's method of communicating feedback to you is ineffective. Do you have a standing weekly 1:1 with your manager? If you do, perhaps proactively asking for feedback will make you less anxious. The disconnect could also be how the feedback is communicated, some people prefer face to face communication while others would like an email or Slack message - its ok to have comms preferances and let your manage know how you would prefer to receive information.
