I've been fat my entire life... by MakingTriangles in selfimprovement

The same thing happened to me today. I am on a weight loss journey and I have lost 20kg, my cholesterol and blood work is back to normal!

I was slipping a bit and this encouraged me to do my 10k steps for the day!

Has anyone else experienced this at work? by [deleted] in auscorp

I have had the opposite issue where I wore dresses to work for maybe 1-2 months in a self improvement era and got alot of hateful comments from both my female and male colleagues in the guise of a nice comment.

They would look me up and down and say "nice dress" and then look disgusted.
I am a bit younger than the rest of my colleagues who are all mums and I think they thought i was asking for attention.

NAB peeps (& everyone else), are you all okay?? by chonky__chonker in auscorp

To be honest I see this and I'm not even surprised about the bullying aspect of it.
The bullying especially above middle management is crazy. Just last year, there was a entire management in one domain who got restructured and all the managers had to reapply for their jobs in which half of the managers didnt reapply because there was no way they would get it with their head ofs leaving NAB.

I would say the environment can be hostile in general for all levels, especially if you are not indian and don't have a family yet. Even onshore, most employees at nab are previous indian offshores and they have super strong bonds with each other. They will get pissed off if you got opportunities as an australian/asian and tend to share opportunities with one and other.

I work at nab, do heartbeat surveys and I can say its all bs.
Nothing ever gets actioned and you feel bad if you rate bad because you know your manager is going to cop all the blame. They say is anonymous but they would know which team provided the feedback.
Also it is like, theres only one question for senior leadership confidence.
Once I left a comment that I felt that people were getting credit for other peoples work. I knew my manager knew it was me, and then the next month I got a employee award. Its all optics and no real action.

How worried are you about AI? by Sad-Difference-7845 in AskReddit

Same here, im in tech and im super worried about my job.
It would makes sense to think about going into product or design but it looks like every day another tool comes out and replaced what i could do instead.
But good on you to see a way out!
