One thing I don't like about LinkedIn is how overly positive people are, I'm not sure how to put it into words. Like some feel good positivity article is posting and 80% of the replies are some form of "thanks for sharing", "inspirational", or some other brown noser yes-man platitude. I'm tired of reading the surface grateful rejection to success stories :skip:. At a glance there's just a lack of critical individuals. I people want to curate an image on there, but very rarely does anyone feel genuine.

I' just went through all my assets and cash calculated how much money I have.... I'm not doing bad but i'm still not satisfied with my career.

I'm coming up to 2 years soon at this job and with the way the economy and covid is going i will be forced to stay at least 1 more year dont have the energy to apply elsewhere and want to make this my last fulltime job before going self employed anyway. I had a good contract lined up for my side business but ended up getting fukked over last minute by my contractors so I'm back to square 1 :francis:.

I've been in this shyt slump for 2 years now hopefully I've peaked and I hit a homerun soon

Midyear unprompted raise. My title got bumped, high performers like me got a little extra

. I really did need this to offset my rent increase a few months ago. Car definitely about to be paid off before the end of the year. I'm STILL going to leave this job though

, I'm not about to sit here and stagnate due to bad decisions from managers.

Raise nets me 300-400 more each check. Last few months I've been way overspending so this is needed. I'm going to zero the balance on my Capital One card and then probably apply for a CSP. I'll have to think about how to meet the spend requirement for the sign up bonus though, I don't want to spend money on shyt I don't need or want just for some points.

I don't know why, I'm lying I do, but I really want this one role. The HQ is located on the same street as my last name. That's a sign.

Clients talking crazy like they won’t get smacked up on real life

:mjlol:

Everybody is hot shyt over emails

I had a client be so disrespectful to our team one time. I never felt the need to cuss someoneout in my entire life as much as I wanted to cuss him out. It sucks that you have to refrain yourself. We e-mailed, called him for 6 weeks to do his part, no answer, then had the never to try get demanding n apply pressure. Once we fixed his shyt, not even one thanks.
