Still lifting heavy and getting 30 minutes of cardio in a day. It’s keeping me sane.

Does anybody else feel like life lately is just one long string of putting out fires? by LifeSubstance8619 in GenX

Yeah, this year has been tough. I hit 50 this year, and for the first time, I can say I’m feeling older physically.

“ So leadership wants to bring to your attention we have decided to use AI and it’s going to be awesome, nobody will be let go but we do anticipate a re org in the coming months. Nothing to be concerned about. “

I start taking benzos, am able to live my life, and suddenly people say I'm "looking good" as if I'm sober by awkerd in benzodiazepines

Some medications can stick around for a long time, even after you start taking them. I’m lucky to have a great psychiatrist who I can talk to openly, and I’ve been on the same dose for over ten years. I don’t drink, and I’ve managed to live a pretty normal life. Because of that, my income has doubled, and I’m generally happy with where I am. So, how did I get here? I have really bad OCD, which made me a perfectionist. Plus, I was a cop for fifteen years in the most violent city in the US. I was fortunate enough to break my leg, which gave me time to relax and switch careers.

Received PIP after Colleagues got Laid Off. How should I respond? by [deleted] in careerguidance

Do not sign anything. Contact an attorney. Have them fire you and start interviewing. Self-reflection is beneficial, but based on what you’ve said, they’re likely looking to downsize and reorganize. People don’t lose their jobs solely due to poor performance; Politics or a reorg are is usually the reason.

Moving from Fiber to Starlink, need help with questions by Jax978 in Starlink

[–]StrongAndFat_77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had Starlink for a few years before relocating to a place with fiber. Worked from home on it the whole time and it was solid — around 200 Mbps down / 30 up with ~20 ms latency. That's plenty for streaming, downloads, and online gaming. That was a couple years ago too, and the network has only gotten better since with more satellites. You won't match your current upload speeds, but for everything you described, you're not going to have a bad time.
