How do you all handle critical feedback? I've found that I often need to disengage from work for a little while. Which is usually the opposite of what I'm being asked to do (work harder, do more, go faster.)

OP, giving yourself some time to absorb it and then critically look at it. It’s perfectly fine as long as that doesn’t go longer than 6 to 8 weeks.🤭

This comment wins! Thanks for making me smile.

I tend to take things pretty hard, so I have to frequently remind myself that it's not personal and it's not about me and my character. There are always things we can improve on, and that doesn't mean I'm a bad person, employee, or colleague.

I've gotten better at accepting critical feedback. I used to hear it as a personal attack and I deeply resented it. Over time I came around to the idea that it was meant in a positive spirit and I could incorporate some of it into my work.

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!

I've done so well in this new role within the company that they are hiring another person to assist with what I do. I've voiced to my boss that I'd like to manage this department and they indicated that this is the thought for the future. Now they are asking me to train this person while I have my plate full. Is it wrong for me to expect either a promotion or to be paid to train this person?
