Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

I am 30 yrs old male working at a big corporate firm. Recently i got into a secret affair with a colleague who is married with kids. We have been seeing each other for months now but things are getting complicated.

I am starting to catch feelings but she keeps telling me to keep it casual and not complicate things. However her husband recently got suspicious and now i am afraid we are getting too close to getting caught.

Should I end it now or keep going despite the risks? This is a mess i know but i am stuck. What should i do??

Caught in an Office Affair

I work in a company with hybrid culture, we are supposed to be in office for 10-15 days a month and rest are work from home days.

Now, I personally have been a very diligent and serious employee, so even if I am on WFH, I make sure I give the dedicated hours to my work and be an asset to the company.

My teammate whereas on the other hand, is a very lazy person, he even openly tells me that WFH means leave for him and he hardly opens his laptop on those days.

The disturbing fact is, even with this attitude, he is liked by my manager and no one says anything to him.
Whereas I constantly get criticized by my manager regarding my work and he even pushes me to do more work.

How is this even fair? I cant even go and tell my manager about my teammate because I am sure he won't trust my words and he might even frame this as an attempt to play office politics by me only. I don't want to take this risk.

What am I supposed to do?

My teammate does no Work on WFH days!

Okay so I usually crib non-stop about working night shifts🙄 (because let’s be real...sleep-deprived, ghost-town office ke scenes, or bhai vending machine dinners), but tonight hit different.

Around 2:45 AM, someone casually mentioned Operation Sindoor post-Pahalgam tragedy. Never thought I’d say this, but I actually feel lucky to witness something this important during my night shift on News channel ...All my colleagues were  talking about how their offices might be getting the drill too. Honestly, it felt kinda surreal discussing this while sipping my 3 AM chai.

Anyone else was on the night shift too?🤔

Night shift was never this exciting… ❤️

Career Advice

I know that we shouldn't be reliant on emotions to make decisions, but I wanted to get out of mind games, politics, people not justifying their role, bad hike, working in shifts, wasted a year on administrating old tools. Which has no mark in industry

My family is not dependent on my paycheck, I asked if they can shelter me for the coming months,while i learn again and apply for the technology i previously worked on the 1st project (PySpark).

How bad is this decision in terms of market situation, currently I've got 4 yoe

Edit: 80 days till notice ends
