Some of us just work well under pressure

So I might get some hate for this. I know this is weakness and the feedback I've gotten is toughen up. But I've never known how. Is there anyone else whose body and mind had accepted that they're not going to amount to anything but fought their way through it? Can you tell me your story? Or give me any book suggestions?

On my way out :)

Just met a dear friend with 10+ yoe and earning 33L per anam. He doesn't want to get promoted or salary hike as he is getting enough as per need and wants to have good WLB. He is accumulating a 3cr corpus and planning to retire in 10 years in his hometown in Ranchi. Debt free - family house in Ranchi and married with no kids - single income. Isn't the amount very small/too risky? Considering anything can go wrong in future and you should work really hard in 30s to avoid that as much as you can. What's your opinion? Ps. He is also active here and I took permission to ask this question here

Picture this: a typical review meeting, and out of the blue, the manager decides to dub Rohan as the star of the show with a casual "Rohan, tu chutiya hai." However, in a sudden plot twist, our manager does a 180 to save him from the wraith of HR, proclaiming, "tu akela chutiya nahi hai, ham sab chutiya hai jo ye sab kaam karte hai!" It's like the office drama you never knew you needed – a rollercoaster of emotions right there in the meeting room….

You can't learn everything from your own experience, you need to learn some hard life lessons from others experiences too! What's the advice\learning that you think that someone should have told you earlier?

Our work is divided into our team of more than 10 members. The nature of work is absolutely identical and only the quantum of work varies everyday between us. Once we complete our work, we are expected to complete and help others and even sit late for completing other's work. Due to this situation, it became a belief that if you complete your work early, you will be bombarded with even more work. Hence, some members decided to be mischievous about this and started to work at a slower pace. However, members who were loyal and completed their work efficiently were bombarded with extra work, let alone, be appreciated for their efficiency. Of course, I was one of them. This has led me to quiet quit and give everything to a job, which doesn't even value the work I do.

Shall earn half money, work from home, be near family, see my parents getting old and take care of them. And not subscribe to this Bangalore hustle anymore. I am done with this!
