You need to take a day, rest, and refocus. Worst fears shouldn't involve work at all.

My worst fear: nuclear terrorism within blast/EMP range of my house, while I'm traveling somewhere else, so I have to battle my way across the world to get home and not knowing if my family survived/are ok.

Zoom call death is not even on the same level.

Military service left me worried about things on a global scale. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I think that every time I’m eating lunch during a meeting. “What if I choke and my coworkers watch helplessly as I die.”
I mean if obviously go off camera for that. I’m a polite Midwesterner.

I’m in the middle of moving by myself. I’m job hunting, because I lost my last one. My relationship has basically imploded. I sleep a lot on a fucked up schedule because I’m depressed but I can’t afford help, and I only get it when insomnia gives me a break. I’m so done and over all of this. I have so many heavy regrets. Idk how to carry all of this.

I think I may have made a huge mistake today. My skip level director sent out an email about something and asked us for feedback. I sent back a note and provided some.

The next thing I know, I get a ping from his EA to set up time for me to chat with him and my director tomorrow. I am getting in trouble tomorrow, right?

LinkedIn is a garbage app where I can’t even post my opinion or experience because it will go against the mainstream ideologies. If I even “like” a post then I worry that my peers and managers see what I like and suddenly I need inclusivity training. What a load of shit! You can’t be who you truly are on that app. Which is why I like fishbowl so much, the anonymity is a game changer. If LinkedIn was a anonymous, we’d see a lot more support for Kanye and a lot less LGBQT material. Bet!
