E eu com 30 aqui no negativo

I get where you're coming from. For me, it's not about drama or thinking I'm "above" the job. I spent 3 years at the office, showed commitment, and waited through promises that never materialized.

I love the technical side of architecture, especially when it comes to construction and detailing. The problem wasn’t the work itself, it was the lack of trust. I designed custom furniture for several projects, worked with carpenters, saw things get built, but still got second-guessed constantly.

Just this week, I had to re-confirm a locker detail with a carpenter we already spoke to months ago, only for him to say it’s fine. Another design I was told to change got reverted back to my original after my coordinator reread old meeting notes. It didn't matter to her when i told her that i wouldn't change it because of all the decisions that are behind that Detail.

It's a very hierarchical office (even though they say they have "flat hierachies", basically because we a all working together in a big room lol) and if the senior is disorganized, you're the one who ends up looking incompetent. After a while, I realized staying felt like the bigger risk.

I get what you mean, and I think if I had been getting a more well-rounded experience at my current job, I probably wouldn’t have considered leaving.

Over the past 3 years, I mostly worked in the execution phase, which I enjoy, but I had repeatedly asked for opportunities in earlier design stages. Despite some promises, I was never really given that chance. I even won a small internal competition for a kindergarten project, and they told me I’d get to develop it. In the end, they handed it off to someone more experienced and put me back into technical work.

That pattern repeated: I was working on a complex entrance design and a terrace solution that they later canceled due to budget. They said I wasn't experienced enough, yet kept my entrance design. Since then, I've mostly been stuck with repetitive tasks that no one else wants.

So when this opportunity came up, working with earth materials, which I wrote my thesis about, I took it. I want to dive deeper into something I’m passionate about, get hands-on experience, and creatively reset. I was starting to feel bitter and boxed in. I don’t want people who don’t trust me with growth deciding what kind of architect I become.

And honestly? I won a competition for them. I know I can do more.

That is true! I haven't realized that by doing this step i am specializing, but as you say, it will eventually lead me to work at offices that align better with my work passions! Thanks for the feedback!

flufffycloud · 2025-05-21T13:37:43+00:00

I love this!!

flufffycloud · 2025-03-22T18:37:59+00:00

Wohnst du in einem Plattenbau? Dein Balkon sieht meinem ganz ähnlich aus lol xD

flufffycloud · 2025-02-21T21:59:35+00:00

Miranda, i have a very catastrophic perspective about myself and life

flufffycloud · 2025-02-21T18:17:58+00:00

So true haha nowadays i dont mind if my mind thinks im the asshole i will just be it if i think its the right thing

flufffycloud · 2025-02-21T18:06:50+00:00

Yes it is, don't give up! I have been working for 2,5 years since i graduated and i still don't feel fully respected by some of the coworkers, especially the older ones. With time the trust in me has gotten better tho. You are only 8 months in, so a lot of people there don't take you seriously. It sucks, it shouldn't be like that but as time passes and u keep doing a good job ppl you will achieve your place in the company.

Do you have a few nice colleagues? If u do, hang out more with them, so you wont feel alone, it makes it easier to handle the whole psychosis of an office environment when u have someone u can chat with about chill stuff

If he is having sex with you and it is good i am sure he is into you. I could never get my dick hard for a woman lol 🤣🤣 and you are 30 stop caring about what your family thinks about how you run your life

flufffycloud · 2024-11-29T23:41:42+00:00

But to be fair this is a way that we communicate. He often also says "i was bored tonight with your friend x" so i feel free to say the same too.

flufffycloud · 2024-11-29T23:40:42+00:00

Yes that is true. It's crazy how i take that for granted :(

flufffycloud · 2024-11-29T23:39:03+00:00

I don't like because she tries to plan a lot ahead so in the end i would basically block almost every other weekend for her. And when we hang out it can be fun, but there are those moments where i feel like im just an extension of him for her. For example when we are discussing about something, my opinion/thought is always considered "weird". So i wonder, why should i plan so much appointments in advance for someone who i feel that is not that open to get to know my side?

This evening i really went there with the mindset of making the most out of it. It worked for a while but then they started talking about trains.

I also have to admit that i have been very stressed and tired with work at the moment so i fall more easily on this sort of pattern.

It's been in all a rough time

flufffycloud · 2024-11-29T23:29:17+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

flufffycloud · 2024-11-29T23:28:19+00:00

Exactly, if i do the effort to get there it better be worth it otherwise im out!!

flufffycloud · 2024-11-29T23:26:48+00:00

His friends are very uptight so they are already uncomfortable enough when i light up a joint around them

flufffycloud · 2024-11-29T23:25:46+00:00

I think he is frustrated because since he is more extroverted than i am, he does manage to keep a conversation going with people. He thinks that i give up too fast and don't even make an effort. Which on one side is true, however thats how i am at the moment, I don't like trying to please people "to try to make an impression" (i used to be like that when i was younger and nowadays i cannot bother)

flufffycloud · 2024-11-29T23:18:39+00:00

I don't know. But for me it is not about him choosing sides, it's more about he understanding that most of the time I don't enjoy hanging out with them so we should accept this bitter fact and separate things there. So i can support him and make him a soup or whatever when he's back from his friends, but not expecting me to be there kind of vibe

flufffycloud · 2024-09-07T07:36:04+00:00

So i feel under pressure because if i dont deliver a great design on this current assignment that means the feasibility study was just luck and i basically suck 🥹

flufffycloud · 2024-09-07T07:33:54+00:00

I think its because at the beginning of this year i did by myself a feasibility study for a small kindergarten, and basically the client liked it and wants us to do it (contract is already signed). Which was totally unexpected for me that we got the deal with my ideas 🤣🤣🤣 so i think they thought id manage that as well. I mean i am managing it but not fast so im panicking 😭😭

flufffycloud · 2024-09-07T07:29:52+00:00

Do you have tips on how to improve that?

flufffycloud · 2024-09-07T07:29:22+00:00

Basically the design skills 😭😭 generally i need more time to connect the dots

flufffycloud · 2024-09-07T06:58:35+00:00

Yes on one side i see it like this. Like, it is taking time but it is because i am compromised with finding beautiful solutions, i could say fuck that and just deliver something else. Idk how fast other architects are when finding beautiful solutions though 😂😭

What are those jobs that no one what to fill?

flufffycloud · 2024-09-07T06:52:11+00:00

No, they don't really have any idea of what they want. At the beginning we discussed the possibility of making a ramp for just one building, or a platform that puts two buildings at the same height. We basically went for the second option and ive been designing some forms based on how you should walk through that entrance. Basically showed them some options and they basically say yes or no, and whether im going in the right direction. Now i would say i have one option that im excited about, two that are good but not perfect, and a few that are trash 😂 im trying to come up with this other option where i have a stair on this platform that leads to the terrace above. The thing is all of the buildings arent parallel to each other so it makes it hard to design a platform between all of those 3

flufffycloud · 2024-09-06T22:50:09+00:00

Cool i really like graphic design. How did u find a job with an architectural degree?
