resting is productive. doing nothing or engaging in activities outside the work field actually has a name, “creative leisure,” and it’s what fuels us to keep us alive and well.
resting our body & mind and doing nothing “productive” (from a capitalistic viewpoint) is precisely the best thing we, as humans (remember, we’re not machines!!), can do to be more productive and live better.
so yes, don’t answer that message outside your work hours, shut down your work computer, and go grab some snacks to watch that movie you’ve been trying to find time for and then go take a nap ♡

All the pressure we put on kids in school gets even more ridiculous after you've worked a few boring office jobs. I've had managers take over a week to skim through a short document, only to then schedule a meeting and ask me to explain what's in the document. Nobody died, nobody lost their job, it was fine.
Ask the average office worker to do work equivalent to the amount of homework and studying a 14 year old has to do in a week, in addition to going to school full-time, and they'll go "oof, that's gonna need a 3 month deadline boss" and still end up asking for a due date extension.
Some school teachers and even uni professors made me feel like the "real working world" is always this high pressure environment where you either swim or drown, but for the average person it's realistically gonna be more like a waist-deep swimming pool that you swim around in at a leisurely pace until your skin gets all wrinkly.

Any idea to know what to do and say in terms of conflict?
Depersonalize others' comments & actions
Perceive the person's intentions – are they seeking war or peace?
If their intentions are sound, enter the conversation with the mindset of two individuals vs. a problem – decouple their humanity, emotions, wants, and needs from external factors & situations
Seek to understand, not win through your conversation
Approach the conversation from a solutions-oriented POV
Remember that compromise means both parties walk away happy or at least content with the outcome – self-sacrifice has no place in conflict resolution or negotiation
Hope this helps xx

Younger workers have spent their lives facing crises from climate disasters to the erosion of reproductive rights. Rebecca Givan, an associate professor of labor studies and employment relations at Rutgers University, told me that as a result, they were far more likely to speak out against injustice. "They are used to holding power accountable, and they understand the deep flaws in the system," she said. "These workers are demonstrating that they will not accept a lack of voice in the workplace, or employers who pay lip service to progressive values and then fall woefully short."
[...]
Unlike some older union members, who may prefer to focus solely on "bread and butter" economic issues, younger workers understand the need to take a more intersectional and inclusive approach to bring in as many workers as possible to their cause. Instead of focusing solely on better pay, Gen Z organizers are also fighting for racial justice, trans rights, and reproductive freedom, recognizing that economic well-being comes from more than a paycheck. "It's obvious to Gen Z how all of the issues are connected, and how in order to combat one issue, we must address them all."

For all my Lisa Frankenstein freaks... THIS is now available on Microsoft Teams. And a bunch of other gifs but the fact that this one was like the third choice makes me giggle. Enjoy!!

Hello everyone!
I’m finishing my master’s degree and would appreciate your help filling out a short survey.

Taking the survey is voluntary and no identifying information will be collected.
You can find the link to the Google Form below.
Reblogs are appreciated! Thank you!

Okay but if someone told me my new cokworders worker was a 19 year old, I would also call them a baby. And I'm not an immortal internist with vast power.
And harrow looks like a 13 year old!
How was John expecting mercy to react? Especially since two of the lyctoral candidates were Younger than harrow?
Isaac was 13 years old!

'Straight A' influencers are literally no different than these grind culture bros. Toxic work culture does not just apply to work. It is taught to us in school.

Fr, I’ve heard of people being bullied out of their own positions as well as called “standoffish” and it irritates me. I’m not one of those people who wanna use my personal life and free time to go out with people that I work with nor will I ever be pressured to do so
Even when coworkers try to follow me, I block immediately cause why do you want to see what I’ve got going on lol

hi :) I apologise if this is too vague, first of all. How do I stop doing things the hard way? Ever since I was young, I’ve always been told to work hard and do things with 100% effort.
Now that I’m in the workplace - in a corporate environment - how do I stop doing this? I’m currently in a professional struggle with transitioning in my career and I realised that this process was a straight line for other people while it’s been full of delays and rejections and standstills for me. I don’t know what I can do to (a) not take things so seriously and do things on hard mode (b) still work hard but work smart so things work out easily for me.
Hi love! I relate to this one, deeply.
The first thing I would say is to try to reframe your mindset from "there's so much to do and so much at stake" to "I have a few priority responsibilities and a few other things that are probably in my best interest to get done. These tasks involve a step-by-step process that I can follow if I focus and am motivated to complete these tasks, so I can get them off my mind "
Some reframes to help you let go of this stress & perfectionism:
Completion is better than perfection – starting a task and seeing where it goes is usually the best course of action. Relying on feeling inspired doesn't work often enough to be a sustainable method. Try the smallest step possible to get you started and allow yourself to get momentum as you get your body/mind into the work. You can always revise and edit your work later, but getting it laid out is essential to have great revised work anyway
Ensure you're prioritizing correctly. Keep a list of things you must do for the day/over the course of the week to meet the deadlines/metrics that matter (in this case to your boss and boss' boss). Make sure these tasks and projects are always done on time/ahead of the deadline and revised carefully after you first make yourself complete it (but take breaks, please)
Be organized but flexible with the rest of your tasks/priorities. Consider these tasks as "nice to haves" that can move the needle if done with organized effort and some passion to do a good job
Communicate with those around you to get a temperature check on the importance/urgency of any of your tasks. If your boss isn't too worried about a certain task, just ensure to complete it on time with your best effort available at the time – overthinking it or placing more emphasis than necessary on a given projection/situation only draws more attention & scrutiny to this assignment and yourself/your performance
Hope this helps xx
