Learnt it early on.
In my previous organisation, my manager used to give me the same feedback in every 1-1 I had with her, that am not active post my work timings, I don't extend and work. She would say, I am not required to be active on slack outside my working hours or on my offs. However, I should check the updates and acknowledge it even if it's my off or outside working hours. I saw my other colleagues doing same and when they did she would ask some or the other updates thus indirectly they had to work even on offs/outside working hours.
I worked there for 1 year and didn't give a fuck about her feedback. I would just say, yeah I'll do but never did.
This month, they laid off and I was among other people who was affected. I am glad that I didn't sacrifice my health and personal life for this bullshit.
Don't burn the midnight oil to make someone else rich. Plain and simple
absolutely
Your kid will also remember that you were not able to provide for them. Money is very important to have a balance family life.
That’s why never have kids… plus if a family only values you as long as you earn, its not a family but a blood related company.
To fall back on someone in bad times, knowing they have your back is love and family.
Nailed it.
Yes, it's a scam until you are paid for those extra hours with extra money. In all other cases, yup, it's a scam.
Also, if orgs have to pay overtime money, they will never ask you to work everyday post work hours.
but why are we measuring hustling with who will remember that in the future? tbh if I ever have kids, they'll atleast remember that in a super luxurious penthouse
