I'm kinda an overthinker because I lied about having 5 years of experience when in really it's my first job. I put a dead company from Czech Republic as my first job which doesn't even have an active website and just seems like someone registered a business venture that they're never pursued. I've put a mysterious "NDA" company as my second job. I've learned everything about this job in 2 months by applying to 750 places and having over 50 interviews. I once had 6 interviews in one day. I was learning how to do the job by being curious with hiring managers on things like daily responsibilities of people at the same position at their company. And when I didn't get to second interviews I was learning by memorizing all the questions and reactions to my answers from recruiters.
It's been two years. Nobody figured out that I'm the fake one.

I’m basically stressing myself out because I’m 5 months in, already having to deal with everything regarding the department I’m in bc my colleague ( who’s been there for 10+) is on medical leave for burnout, I feel like I’m failing miserably and then I stop and remember that there’s people in the company that have been there also for 10+, do a shit job and think themselves amazing.

Well said…The hardest workers usually need boundaries before they need more responsibility.

Absolutely this. I think a lot of us have worked their asses off and seen what little shit some people get away with, and think MAYBE I can aim for that, or even a little less giving a fuck…. Nah. Too much pride and perfectionism 🫠

Approach every job with the confidence and audacity of a rich straight white man and you won’t go wrong in a corporate job. Underperform with confidence, and you’ll be okay 😂
