Anyone else feel the quality of Uber cars has dropped dramatically? Used to get picked up in fancy cars but nowadays mostly Camrys and even those are real old. DC and CLT by the way.

I don’t know who needs to hear this (mostly As, Cs, SCs, and some Ms) but here goes.

You are important to the project, but never so important that you cannot leave the project or firm for better opportunities. Being in hero mode is good where you save the day, everyday - but in fact that is neither advisable for your progression nor a recommended practice for the firm. If you have been performing and have had decent social skills, you will not have burnt a bridge when you leave.
