I also like this because:
a) PACKIDGE!
ii) It's the first screenshot from a phone I've seen in ages where the battery isn't at 4% remaining and I'm silently anxiously screaming CHARGE YOUR DAMN PHONE! π
And HERE is my Catch-22 π
Bloody hell. I'm taking this all the way to the Prime Minister!
Went to sleep in the foothills of the Dandenongs. With all the noise last night, surprised the house isn't now in Kansas...
Five-year-old woke up at 3:30am upset from all the noise, and that was pretty much the end of our sleep for the night!
Everything appeared intact this morning at least. Dream drive in to work, nobody on the roads - I'm very jealous of the WFH-brigade!!!

So have a nap.
ZEN FIRE ZE MISSILES!
Ungrateful for my inability to break out of my epic decade-long-stuck-in-the-same-role career rut that has me dreading coming into work each day.
I'll wave to you from my box fort.

Hopefully they've got a car big enough to transport all $350 million dollars worth of cocaine back to the station.
Maybe itβs just this bleary Friday but feeling in a definite work rut of late. So I apologise for probably the deepest/longest post Iβve ever made online.
Iβve been in my (IT/AV/technical) industry 25 years, and at my current job almost 10, but due to some SERIOUS imposter syndrome am still pretty much doing the same work now that I was doing back in the day.
Around 15-20 years ago I was doing much more technically complex work than I am now and climbed to some higher leadership levels, but HATAED managing people so quit that job and dropped right back to the coal face where Iβve been ever since, with pretty much zero progression.
My bossβ boss - we were both at the same level when I first started. My manager, I trained them when they joined as a junior, helped them rise up to a role at my level, and then eventually supported them to go higher and theyβre now my boss.
Iβve been approached by other groups over the years to join/help out/move up, but Iβve pushed back every time because I canβt help but think βI canβt do thatβ, βthey THINK I know more than I actually doβ, βif they find out Iβm actually crap Iβll be unemployed with a family to supportβ, "I've hit the limit of what I'm capable of".
GAH. I wish I could just appreciate what Iβve got, but I come to work completely on autopilot, canβt remember the last time I actually had to use my brain for anything, and seem to just be the guy everyone turns to for help/advice, train new staff and to help further their own careers. Imposter syndrome blows. Wish I had the kind of personality that could fake it till I make it.
OK vent over, time for more coffee.
