It's known as playing the game and sucking up.



I often try to keep to myself, much to the annoyance of some of my work colleagues (both past and present). Besides, I've always been too much of an outlier for many to comprehend.

Weirdo! 😌

having experienced both (working alongside others and working for myself), i can say that both offers advantages and disadvantages. some people thrive off of social interaction (like they actually feel energized from it), whereas others can feel sorta depleted from it. some people feel more comfortable being part of a group and dividing responsibilities, whereas others don't mind having all the responsibility on their shoulders if it means they will have more freedom.



i was always hell bent on working from home and eventually made it happen.

but i definitely enjoyed and appreciated the opportunity to work for an employer because it offered a stable income for me while trying to get my own business off the ground, so i'm forever grateful for that. 'cause like, imagine if was jobless during that time. it would've been really hard. so, just use your work place as a stepping stone to get to where you wanna go.



as far as the mingling with co workers thing, yeah, i never really understood the whole appeal of co workers going out to have lunch/drinks together (even though sometimes we kinda gotta go along with it in order to seem pleasant, agreeable ? lol)



also, when i was much younger, i used to wear my burnout as a badge of honor or something , but now that i think about it, i was running away from my grief by trying to lose myself in my work. so people could do this as a way to run away from emotions they don't wanna feel. when you're fully immersed in your work, you don't think about anything else.

Who needs a group when you have dxp? Hahaha 😂

Have you really only just realised this??



You're only a "team" because it sounds more palatable than group of employees

No, I've known this for a while but it's only really registered into my brain after doing sales for so long lol

I've known this my whole life. Good thing you figured it out tho. Congrats on life experience, you will be real, you will not always fit in but at least you will be real.



Also this is not in every culture. In the USA work/business is everything which is were so bad at enjoying it. We think were well off until you look at other first world countries.

Yeah I've wondered if work culture is similar in other parts of the world

Time for a career change, entirely.



You belong in the hospitality sector, consider this heavily.

What makes you say that

After leaving my last job, I started to realize that this whole "work/team culture" idea that's pushed onto everybody who works in a sales (or other applicable) job environment is cringe. Higher-ups incentivize their employees (more like "work rats") to work harder and make more money for those higher-ups by introducing contests and encouraging competition to bring "unity" to a team and rally everyone to win over others in exchange for perks or prizes. And then, people who win those prizes get recognized and then their luxury vacation pics or luxury car pics or whatnot are spread across social media by the company.

And then there's team outings, where the head of the team takes everyone out for extracurricular activities, like sporting events, for example, and everyone mingles together and has a party or whatever. But I feel like that's like encouraging more fake camaraderie than there already is in the workplace - and a lot of people get sucked into the whole team spirit thing/pumping each other up/glorifying the idea of hustling hard to "make that bank." Why do people fall for that kind of thing? In a way, I think that's telling of how people really feel about their lives. Social interactions between coworkers seem fake enthusiastic, but why be that way? It makes me think that people are really miserable with their lives behind closed doors. People are having drinks with each other, not with people outside of work. And yet, all they talk about is work. But that elongates the amount of time and energy thinking about work because people are literally socializing with their coworkers outside of work, about work, and while engaging in an activity that is expensive (yes, alcoholic drinks are expensive when you go out to drink), dangerous (you could get yourself and/or someone else hurt), and unhealthy (liver damage/unhealthy weight gain). I don't understand that.. why not go out for a coffee instead? Why do coworkers have to drink alcohol together? Is it that they need to be able to "loosen up" to enjoy time with each other? If that's the case, then why bother? Why not just save time and money for better things? And then there's the whole hustle culture thing too - what is with people who talk about how they work *so* many hours and are *so* busy and are *so* tired? People seem to compete with each other for the busiest person in the company lol as if that's a prize to try and get. Isn't the goal in life to work as little as possible and to have freedom? Why do you want to work yourself to burnout? In the end, that's more damaging to your wallet than working normal hours with a little less effort. At least that way, you don't burnout.

I think hustle culture is really toxic and the whole camaraderie thing is really cringe too.. thanks for listening to my rant I guess. Idk lol

The Queen (Leo Sun w/Virgo Venus)

I mean... I *am* the queen 😌 but I never ever relate to the Virgo Venus description. At least not to 90% of it.

Ok idk what y'all are using to calculate this stuff but if I had to guess my dominants would be Cancer, Water, Moon and 1st House. My Cancer Moon is the most heavily aspected and my 1st House has my Sun and Moon.

What’s your rising sign? Is it Leo ? That would mean your sun rules your entire chart and with the sun in the 1st house that would put more emphasis on the 1st house and the sun.



But I find Astro.com -> Walter pullen chart to be more accurate finding your dominants. Only it doesn’t tell you your house dominant. But if you want I can look at your chart to get an idea what your dominant house is. The easiest way is when you have a stellium in a house but otherwise it’s a bit more difficult to figure out
