Too much negativity everywhere. I just want to find ppl who genuinely like what they are doing. If you are one, what do you do and what makes you happy?
Am too old to love my job. Relaized am just a cog in the wheel. I work for money. When i hear the mgmt team talk nonsense about purpose and adding value, i happily smile to his face and laugh in my mind.
Am here for the money. The company can fuck itself.
I work in the free to play mobile gaming industry. I lead the product and revenue for a AAA rated game with a global player base. I absolute love my work as it makes me think deeply about my own game as a player and come up with content and revenue / product strategies
I have been in digital marketing for 5.5 years now with the last 3 years as a social media marketing manager and I absolutely love it. Especially the paid campaigns part of it where we get to understand the psychology of human mind and how we can use that to sell our products/solutions/services. I’ll soon be transitioning into Talent Acquisition marketing. Hope to say the same for that.
could you elaborate more on the psychology part of it?
Sure man! So let’s say I have to market product A to Nigeria. In my job, I get to research specifics such as the color prevalent in that region, the words that would attract them, the time of day they’ll be online, which platform they’d use etc. There’s a famous saying that you place a product in the mind of the customer. I get to do that. :)
Hope this answers it?
A job is a job. There would be days, you would feel like “ What am I doing?” and some days, it would be “ WHAT AM I DOING?”
For e.g: if you are working for Swiggy, you may think that you are enabling employment for so many poor folks who otherwise would have been unemployed.
On the other hand, you can think of Swiggy enabling the lazy bums by ordering food and not doing anything on their own!
It’s always going to be two perspectives and some days, you will think of the bright side and some days the gloomy side!
Try to treat them the same! A job is a job and you do it because you have to not because you want to!
People ordering in swiggy are lazy bums. If you cant go out to eat your food. Whats the point in earning money?
