41·6 months agobecause he engages, won’t disengage and I don’t know how to politely tell him to piss off.
I don’t want drama and people like this have a tendency for that.
nobody forces you to read em
1·8 months agoI’ve worked in jobs with plenty of downtime, but have never worked in one where I could just wander off to exercise or read a book openly. I was expected to be finding things to do or to at least appear busy and engaged.
good point, this changes the calculus
The only thing that maintains sanity is having something to do to distract yourself
I don’t see why reading or writing poetry don’t accomplish that
I don’t know if you’re complaining but if you are, I don’t understand you. I want to be you.
earning money doing almost nothing is meaningless? You earn money for doing nothing! and you cannot be fired, so…
do these jobs you got later pay you better?

would you write what flavor you use?
thanks
but it’s officially on record that you’ll speak up while others quietly work
why would I want to work where people try destroying my credibility behind my back? This is not something I’m willing to overlook.
If HR acts like you described, if I’m that replaceable to them, so is my workplace.
The others don’t work quietly, btw.
ETA: wait, are you implying this is normalized? Employees do actually say nothing not to land in hot water, because they’re afraid of being fired and are willing to overlook the gossip and backstabbing for a check? Not for me.

career: are you paying for my certifications and the financial penalty I’d take? it’s a 3 year minimum for any bachelor.
workplace: how do you know the new place is going to be better?
