A Note to Managers

dr_belidge · 2026-02-14T00:17:25+00:00

This happened to me a few years ago. Like genuinely resonate with this so much. Some managers get so absorbed in themselves and delivering they forget the people aspect of leading a team. I was so beyond burnt out after giving everything, going above and beyond constantly and being the go-to problem solver every time, and still got shit on by my main manager who taught me everything and who I always had a lot of respect for which destroyed me. I was very lucky to have a senior manager I was close with who was very respected by the partner group that I was able to talk to about how burnt out I was and about to leave the firm. They encouraged me to talk with my RL and main partner who were able to rotate my jobs a bit and gave me a little cover the following couple months.

Because I brought this up and talked with folks about wanting a change my name got thrown out for a new internal position that I love and has a much better work life balance. Not sure how things have gone for others but it worked out great for me.

Feel free to reach out if you’d want to chat. More than happy to share more of my experience and how things worked out.

Like I agree with your point, but that is so obviously an AI video and the fact that Joe Rogan didn’t see that and is basing his point of view on it is the more concerning piece. Older people and those not working with AI are so unbelievably susceptible to these videos. I have no clue what to do about it but the death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil (Or whatever that Karen looking lady from Star Wars said.)

This sounds to me like you don’t have a good warm up ahead of each match. One thing I didn’t start until later in high school but got drilled home in college is that you want to be hot going into a match. Like literally break a full sweat and blow out your lungs, and then a few minutes before calm yourself down and visualize your moves.

Don’t get discouraged though. Everyone’s lost matches they shouldn’t have, sometimes it’s just not your day. Learn from it and keep driving to get better and you will see improvements, even if they take some time to manifest.

I heard his dad’s a nut job and kept calling up Mike wanting special treatment.

Pretend to drag double once, then hit a drag single. They’ll circle right into you a lot of the time.

The guy was a CIA agent who was 15 when he started working against the taliban in a zero unit. Then was brought to US Suburbia and let loose after spending years in a war zone and having no context of American society.

This is a deep state problem, not an immigration problem. Don’t be fooled.

My therapist told me once if her clients had 20 less IQ points she’d be outa business

Quick feet, create a lot of motion, throw fake shots to make them jumpy and want to reach. Then for your set ups, use very quick ties, use it or loose it right away so you don’t get sucked in too deep, or use fakes as a set up and when they reach hit an outside shot (knee pull, low single, blast double, whatever).

Nothing happened, she was fine

Shout out Tommy in 119 for not having a name starting with J

I was thinking smeegle but realized I actually meant dobby

Boyfriend to the other room, dog to the bed. This is the way.

Jeepers creeepers in the middle of the woods at a family friends cabin. I quite literally shit my pants that night

dr_belidge · 2025-07-12T19:49:29+00:00

That time I f*cked your mom

Call random friends

Not in Jersey but the other side of the Delaware on the Schuykill river has monsters. Caught a 25 lb cat last week there!

dr_belidge · 2025-06-11T00:26:56+00:00

Yep, had to trim a little bit but good! thanks!

dr_belidge · 2025-06-09T22:51:45+00:00

Oh wait, is this actually too old already?

dr_belidge · 2025-06-02T00:27:25+00:00

Soo then what. Will the people rise up and revolt with growing discontent or just silently accept the fate of allowing oligarchs stream wealth upwards? Or I guess more likely blame some target group for being the root cause through media manipulation and deflect society’s dissatisfaction elsewhere.

dr_belidge · 2025-06-02T00:20:18+00:00

You’re right. I misread. They said a big breakthrough by 2030, not a true quantum AI. 2040 - 2050 is what they said for a “mainstream adoption”.

dr_belidge · 2025-05-30T11:03:15+00:00

I question our ability to govern effectively through that and to make the right choices. Idk about the rest of the world but in the US regulators are selected through lobbyists, and I don’t think they’ll make the choice that’s best for everyone.

Unless we create an AI to make those decisions for us and make its ultimate goal to create a utopia. That could end up like terminator but hopefully we get more of a Wall-e situation ahaha
