So scared for my coworker. She's literally falling asleep, dizzy, and almost collapsing at her desk, and our coworker is forcing her to be on a conference call. WTF. She's on the verge of collapse ffs

She should go home or to urgent care. Is it low blood sugar? Has she eaten? Has she slept? Please speak up, your other coworker is being wildly negligent with another persons’ health.

Um see something DO something! Hello?!? As a type 1 diabetic epileptic, I would be overjoyed if someone cared about my wellbeing enough to step in when others tread on me whilst I am perhaps not in a state to advocate for myself

Yeah, a few of us ended up forcing her to go home. We literally had to physically pull her up from her chair, and call a taxi for her. She had to hold on to someone as she walked. It was so upsetting to watch this happen; she had pushed herself to do two all-nighters in a row without any food. I can't believe it. This is just advertising; we're not saving lives here.

Hopefully the coworker was reprimanded! You did her a solid by getting her home.

McKinsey & Company Bain & Company Hiiii! I’ve been at my job for a year and a couple of months now & I’ve gotten rather bored because the work is repetitive, not challenging, and hasn’t really allowed me to learn or grow as much as I would’ve liked to. Given how I’m still paying a ton of money for my postgrad in Business Comms (that I haven’t really gotten the chance to use), I’ve been thinking of entering the world of consulting.

My first appointment with a therapist to help manage my anxiety was canceled at the last minute... just what i need after spending days preparing for this session 🙄

Deadlines can induce anxiety attacks for me. I worked through the weekend and just woke up to a (nice!) email from the client asking about progress. We're not going to hit deadline. This caused an all-out anxiety attack at 6:30 am and now I have to somehow get myself together and work.

How can I have a healthy relationship with deadlines? That "good and done is better than perfect" saying is nice, but expectations are very high. I just want to stop feeling this way. Therapy helps, kind of.
