How I Learned to Care Less and Still Get Paid
So, picture this: I spent two years grinding for a promotion, only to have it yanked away by new management. Not only did they shut down the position, but they also made it clear it would never exist. Ouch, right? My first instinct was to storm out and find something better, but have you seen the job market lately? Not exactly the land of opportunity.
I flirted with the idea of freelancing, but the gigs pay less, offer zero benefits, and honestly, the work isn’t even that interesting. So here I am, stuck between my bruised ego and the reality of needing a steady paycheck. How do you just stop caring and coast? Still working on that, but for now, I’m learning to let go of what I can’t control and focus on what actually pays the bills. Maybe that’s the real promotion. 😅
