#working environment

[cannibalgh0st]

Honestly, has anyone else not been in the mood to work? Like their job environment just feels OFF lately?

“you are in school now! use this time to experiment and hAvE fUn! you’re allowed to make mistakes now, it isn’t like the Real World™”

*facilitates an incredibly stressful, demotivating, demanding and emotionally punishing working environment*

How the gentle wind,

Beckons through the trees,

As autumn colours fall.

Brennen's description of Evan's room was so wild, I had to try my hand at it.

eric bogosian seems like the kind of guy that experimented with gay sex back in the day and regrettably unfortunately found himself to be heterosexual and it was one of the biggest disappointments of his life but now he's been given the opportunity to live out his gay dream in a way and he is clearly so stoked to be playing a homo character on the gay vampire show and whenever he does a press junket with jacob assad and sam he's giving vibes of proud pflag dad with his three rainbow kids..actually maybe not kids because one of them is desperate to lick the back of his throat, and with the other two he is clearly convinced they are in love with each other, something which he has tried to allude to in, and this is not a joke or exaggeration, the majority of the group interviews he has participated in

As a former weird coworker, I was *super* competent. I was the go-to person for ANYTHING. Need someone to go take on that weird task? Grab Storm, she knows what the fuck is happening. Need someone to jump through three different departments today then pick up that task from two days ago that didn't get done? Storm will keep that in her head while performing? Need someone to juggle to entertain kids and somehow still fill the shelves while the store is un-navigable due to Christmas shoppers? STORM!

I found out after I left that supervisors were occasionally FIGHTING to get me on their docket for days.

They absolutely put up with my weird and encouraged it. Lazy people vanished.

My weirdness included being unable to recognise coworkers, rambling about whatever topic was on my mind, hyperfocus, infodumping, ability to memorise almost all of the 100+ codes for produce and show off to newbies. They also knew if they gave me newbies I could gentle them into tasks.

Anyway last week my professor told the class "coworkers will put up with poor technical skills but they won't put up with weird" and after class I just went and sat in my car and cried bc how am I supposed to survive if I still don't seem "normal" even though I've been doing behavioral therapy since first grade but masking hurts so goddamn bad that I'm only doing two classes a week rn but I'm still falling apart and barely functioning every day and barely getting my work turned in bc i come home from class and collapse for days at a time and its just not fair, its not fair, why do other people get to be the normal, why do jobs get to be easy for other people, why are 66% of autistics unemployed/underemployed its not FAIR

We must challenge the stigma and discrimination surrounding mental health.

We all have the right to live our lives free from stigma and discrimination in places like schools and workplaces.

Not a One Person Job

At a certain point in so many places, I want to make it clear: more money does not solve the issue. The issue is: Whatever you are asking the employee to do is not a one-person job. It is not even a one person who is paid very well job. If you have a project that requires 2 people, you should be hiring 3 just in case. Not hiring two, having one of the two leave, and then noticing that the one person hobbled along just fine so that’s proof this is a one person job. No! Our economy has been running on lean, small staff sizes, pinched hours and low pay. I want more money, too, BUT if given a choice between twice as much pay or an additional person on payroll, I’d like an additional person to help me complete this not-a-one-person-job.

A corollary, if you have a program where a single employee has an income equal to the total income of 20 other employees, lay-offs better start near the top. I am sure it is possible to find one top manager that is bungling it up, fire one person and then have your pick of several underlings that could make use of a promotion and a pay raise.

Every time I think about the Tree of Feelings I can't help but be a little underwhelmed at how the most popular depictions of it is just. the tree. on a hill. surrounded by miles of nothing but grass and maybe a few houses in the distance.

Yeah, no thanks. I'll just go with my own interpretation on this one

BARBECUE DRAGONS

The semester is finally finished! This is a style frame from my story development project. Even though I've decided to change the project's final style to something less polished, I'm still quite happy with this.

I'm sorry but the irony of Nico calling Max unprofessional is sending me so bad like sir there's an entire garage full of people, who were literally in the trenches trying to survive the Brocedes fallout while just doing their jobs, who might have a few things to say about your (& Lewis') level of professionalism at that time 😭✋️
