@careersbychris: Most jobs are made up and we're on a floating rock 🫶🏽 Unless you work in an ER or public safety or you’re a doctor, most things at work are not actual emergencies, manufactured urgency is a control mechanism, one mistake at work is not the end of the actual world, and we're saving PDFs, not lives. Don't Lose Pride in Your Work, but don't take work personally. #careers #careercoach #careeradvice #worklifebalance #jobs
I’m super detached as far as work is concerned. Sometimes work feels like it’s interrupting my actual life

I’m 55. Work ethic is soooo ingrained in my core, that I try to not care so much. I have given free time, and been so loyal. And for what??? I just end up picking up the slack for my coworkers

People that complain about being bored and finishing their work early need to pipe down because it’s called TIME TO BREATHE and you get paid no matter how busy you are.

my motto at work. i do my work well and lock in during my time at work. off the clock and i'm out, do not disturb me, things can wait until the next working day.

For years I was on the verge of burnout at work. Then I had a baby. Severe depression followed by parental burnout. Trust me my relation to work has changed. I'm ok with burning myself out for my kid, not for work. Parenthood changes you!

From experience this does not work if you work in a toxic work environment, you will just feel guilty feeling that you’re not detaching enough while in reality it’s not a humanly possible to be detached into toxic environments. It will drain you silently until you break out mentally
