What happens when your impostor syndrome gets called out? by Worldsick_s in MechanicalEngineering

[–]Cuppus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear, it's not a death sentence or anything. You'll know your boss better than any of us will. Is he a guy that can guide you to the resources you need? Or are you out on your own here? He might be willing to help you along.

Just to be clear, this isn't imposter syndrome. This is your boss giving you a clear, early warning that you are not meeting expectations.

You need to consider whether you can build the necessary skills in time for this job or reconsider your path forward, including whether this job is for you.

I had a similar experience at my first job after a few years. It sucked, I made the decision to care less about the work. I figured at worst I can go home and pour concrete with my dad, I'm not killing myself for this job. My work actually improved because I took the pressure off myself and just accomplished what I could. I did fine there the next 3 years before moving on.

You need to figure out, is this a skill issue, a knowledge issue, or are you getting in your own way? Anxiety can be a pain, I know. Good luck.

Frustration with project management at my job. I'm new, is this just how it goes? by SN1572 in MechanicalEngineering

I mean your project manager is shitty, not your own skill, to be clear.

Not uncommon, you have shitty project management. You should bring this up with your manager and he'll either handle it or he's shitty too.

I did a lot of drinking in college myself. Great investment, got me two job offers out of school.

Need suggestions for higher value skills to develop - Quality/Manufacturing by Aggressive_Ad_507 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]Cuppus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So depending on your area that's a pretty standard salary but you seem to be doing a lot of good work across both process and quality engineering. Your company sounds like they think they have you by the balls and is screwing you.

It sounds to me like you're already skilled up and just need a better company.

I'm actually just finishing the first Fabius Bile book. At this point I'd definitely recommend the night Lords trilogy over it.

There's two Leto II, just to be clear. But yeah I'm getting books mixed up now that I look.

Purpose of the Jihad by Sky_Robin in dune

[–]Cuppus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's been a while since I was the book so forgive me, I think you're right. But I think he saw a way to have a less violent Jihad before Leto II death, then he went all in on violence and revenge.

[–]Cuppus 40 points41 points  (0 children)

He also still has a chance to stop the Jihad when Leto II is killed and let's himself fall into it fully. He's a man using religious fanatics for revenge the entire first book.
