How do you stay motivated during challenging times at work? I typically go hang out with a patient or 2 and am reminded why I chose this work in the first place. My old work best friend used to help motivate me too but she moved out of the country 😭 luckly we still keep in touch weekly but damn do I miss seeing her every day

I actually do the same thing OP. When I start feeling unmotivated or burned out I will go hang out with some of the people we are serving and its such a good reminder that the work I do is important and it really does make a difference in the lives of others.

I'm naturally feeling a bit weary of his character and questioning whether this is a friend I want to keep close in my life. Perhaps I'm being too judgmental?

I have some collections on my credit report. One from an electric company for $800 (imo they violated terms of contract and sent me to collections in spite of their fuck up), and an apartment for $80~ that charged me a cleaning fee when my apartment was spotless.

Despite these two collections have a 712-720 credit score.

So mortgage lenders care at all about the collections or is it mostly the credit score that matters?

We Indians are so poor we can't think anything else except money. Whole Fishbowl is all about YOe and Salary. No one interested about if any company doing any innovation or not. B-Tech colleges put ads with Package and Campusing only. Almost 99% Indian YouTube thumbnail is like "5 lakh to 40 lakh", "Interview Experience in bracket 50Lpa" etc.. Hardly we can see Foreign Editorial things marked with Packages.
