I have missed my fair share of events like family gatherings, friends hangouts, and some other small occasions. Now thinking about that time I regret not going to them because I was aggressively looking for a job which entailed tailoring resumés, networking, and a bunch of other things. I ultimately got a job but I feel like I missed out.

Hey beautiful people,
I’m 27Y and work in tech. Unfortunately my carpal tunnel is getting worst slowly. I’m worry that I still have like 45 years more to be retired and can’t stop working because I have a f* mortgage to pay 😭 I have a super ergonomic workstation, but I know my hand needs a long rest, and I can’t do it… Does anyone relate? What do you recommend?
