Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

He’s silent, deadly, and unapologetic.
You're talking deadlines, he's dropping gas bombs.
No one addresses it. HR didn’t train us for this kind of workplace hazard.

How do I survive this biological warfare in a corporate setting?💣

My manager farts in meetings send oxygen.

One of our colleagues was so enraged because our manager was forcing the employee to work a rotational shift and making him work hard.
We can all see he was too hard on him, but we thought it was part of work and our manager's behavior with everyone....... 
That person went so much into rage that he poisoned extra caffeine in our manager's coffee. He is old, suddenly collapsed after one drink, the blood pressure shooted but after drinking water, he got normal.............. That's what they call the taste of his own blood. Also, a colleague left the job after all this drama.

is it what managers want now? Waiting to get poisoned?

Interview Tips & Stories

One thing I’ve personally learned is that it’s really important not to overtalk during interviews. Once you cross that line, you unknowingly start oversharing. And we often forget that interviewers are actively listening to every single word  not just casually nodding.

In one of my interviews, the person was super friendly, and I got too comfortable. I ended up talking openly about some of my weaknesses… and guess what? He used that against me later. 
So yeah, be mindful of what and how much you share, even if the vibe feels chill.

Career Advice

I spent 4 years getting an engineering degree. Then 3 more years building “corporate experience.”
Learned Python, Java, debugged more issues than I’ve had hot meals.

And guess what I earn?🥲

25K a month.
Yes, a whole 25,000 shiny rupees to be a glorified Google searcher who knows how to “fix backend issues.”

Meanwhile, YouTubers making “A Day in My Life” vlogs with 3 cuts and a cringe transition are pulling in lakhs per month. Just because they can say “Hi guys, welcome back to my channel ☕.”

Did I choose the wrong career? Or the wrong country? Or the wrong life?
(Asking for a broke, overworked friend. And for myself.)

Does tech even pay in India anymore? Or is entertainment the only profitable industry left?

Career Growth

I’ve noticed this pattern more than once.
The more successful a man is at work, the more distant he becomes emotionally.

My last partner had a great job at a top finance firm. Big salary. Fancy LinkedIn profile. But when it came to feelings? It felt like I was dating someone who just wasn’t there.

And honestly, I don’t care how much money someone makes if they can’t even have a simple, honest conversation.
That’s not ambition, that’s emotional neglect in a suit.

So I’m wondering does growing in your career implies you have to stop showing emotions?
Or is this the "New Normal" now.
Would love to know what you think.

Can someone be both successful and emotionally mature? Or is it always one or the other?
