Need advice - I currently have 2.5-3 YOE (depending if u count internships) and $180 TC. I’ve recognized the pay is pretty high and industry jobs won’t come near it for my amount of experience.

Anyone else just wake up and realize they just don’t like working? Any tips on winning the lottery without playing? On a serious note, I’ve noticed I don’t enjoy the work I’m doing, I want to stay motivated and at times I am but I feel like there’s a lot in the way of attaining my definition of success. Have to sit for my cpa, keep my managers happy, maintain internal firm responsibilities. How do you stay motivated, is this just being stuck at home during quarantine? contd.

I was responding to a friend’s text who recently started dating someone and said “wow he’s cute! And ripped”. My boyfriend ended up seeing these texts and is now upset saying I disrespected him by commenting on other men’s attractiveness. I tried telling him that I have literally zero interest in this person but was gassing my friend up, but he still feels disrespected. I acknowledged the mess up and apologized. Any thoughts or advice on not being defensive and helping him through this feeling?

Write the wrong thing. When you don’t know how to say it right, start with what’s too obvious, too low-brow, too high-brow, too corporate, too flippant, etc. You’ll be surprised how getting all that out of your metal bowels will liberate you, and give you something to pivot off or improve upon. It’s all about just starting somewhere, even if it sucks.
