Fighting corporate is the new strength training 🙃

To be very honest I feel very frustrated looking at the situation right now. Companies are laying off without worrying about the employees. It's just corporate profits everywhere. I am scared to death that my career won't last long than 20 years because the moment these folks think you are becoming a financial burden on them, they'll lay you off. I don't want to live my life in a constant war mode. The Indian education system has bruised my personality for a long time. I want to relax but looking at this battlefield I can never. My weekends are spent worrying about planning for finances in case I get laid off. I am worried I won't be able to buy a house. This shit is depressing me very much. Other folks please tell me how are you navigating this mess?

Perks of working at CyberHub, ig. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I was at the Cyberhub today morning and saw that a deranged woman was shouting at a female security guard. I couldn't understand what it was about because of a lot of commotion there. The woman made a mistake and pushed the security. The Security proceeded to slap her so hard in the face. Then, the security remarked something in the densest Haryanvi accent I know, "Pata nhi kaha se aa jaate hain". I anyway have a ton of audit work to do and anyway month-end is coming so it is closing time, I rushed to get to the office. Have you guys seen such lafda in real life? I was so shook.

Hi everyone! Next Month, we are reaching out to corporates for their health and fitness goals. Before that, I want to understand, as a startup/corporate employee, what difficulty you face while following a diet and workout.

Rant alert: Have you felt the same way? How many years of work ex after which you started feeling this way? Stability and money I’m grateful for. But I hate the constant comparison and competitiveness among peers/colleagues. Makes me want to quit and do a Teach for India fellowship. A little corporate detox. Wish I had become an athlete instead. I know it’s not an easy life, but It’s the kind of competitiveness I’m inclined towards. Not inclined towards the kind where you compete with people to please a company that will never care for you as a human. But people fail to recognise that, lose perspective, and lose themselves too. People have no class in this shitty world. If I have kids, they’re definitely becoming athletes and not entering this hellhole. Most ironically, I’m borderline considering an MBA to escape the corporate life for 2 years, but obviously I’m aware I will only get entrenched further in it due to the degree.

military general like or artist like. which leadership style is more effective for leaders as well as their teams?
