You are enough. Always regardless of having a job or “subjectively” good work. You are enough.

Exactly what ACD 1 said. You are also not defined as a person by your work. There’s plenty to love.

None of this is true. You CAN get a job. Your work is good enough - in fact, it can be great. You may feel like you hate yourself, but this is a defense mechanism to find happiness.

We believe in you 💙

The fact you can’t get a job is this fucked up system is not your fault. Consider your fight a war. Don’t stop fighting. You have everything in you to win, so don’t give up mentally. Things will get easier has you grow stronger.

Wipro walo, I have joined on last month, 11th July. I am working in South African shift timings. I am entitled to get Rs 2500 per month as shift allowance, but I didn't get it for last month. On speaking to one of our senior members, he said shift assignment only takes place between 1st to 10th of every month. So it will be assigned this month and will also receive last month shift allowance pay as arrear. Is this true ? Where can I check whether my manager has assigned me a shift or not ?
