“Being useful is almost like being loved

Years of therapy right there

Kinda made me sad to hear it framed in this way

“when you’re always the one who knows what to do people stop asking if you’re okay they just assume you are they assume the person who fixes things is fine that the person who stays calm doesn’t need anyone to stay calm for them”

Listen here @klincecum imma need you to stop sharing crap like this. I don’t have the time or the crayons to unpack this :zipper_mouth_face:

“
 the more you fix things, the more you get handed
”

Kind of like my ending up our Epicor administrator. :sob:

That’s called the competency trap, and it’s universal.

ugh - can’t quite stand these AI slop videos :laughing:

I better get used to it..

These are mostly real scripts read by AI, so not as bad.

Really? It uses phrasing like an AI and not a human :nauseated_face:

“
he doesn’t answer the phone on the weekends

People answer the phone during the week??

Like certain people we know, they probably feed it into AI to ummm

“or like being an operations consultant the week of go-live when everyone suddenly discovers that what you’ve been telling them for the last year or so was actually true

It’s not limited to the week of go-live. You can only advise, tell or warn people so many times

I feel seen. Wow also.

Any other Gen Z’s here? :sweat_smile:

In my family (me, wife, and 3 kids born to us) we span FIVE generations.

  • Me: Gen X
  • Wife: Millennial (Gen Y)
  • [no Zoomers]
  • 2 oldest kids: Gen alpha
  • Youngest kid: Gen beta

The generation thing is getting stupid - it’s like a new “generation” is every 5 years now.

Sometimes I feel like that too but then I look at ‘generation’ date ranges and they’re all basically 15 years.
It’s just that 15 years started feeling like 5 years at some point.
Then I feel old.
