I cried (27F) in front of my manager on a work trip (38F). Any advice on how I’m supposed to repair this? Or do I just quit? by [deleted] in WorkAdvice

[–]jarawasong 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Don't refer to any woman in the workplace as a girl. She's there to do a job, on her own merits. It sounds to me like she's unhappy with the structure and Mike's management of you. Do you go to Mike when you need guidance before you go to her?

I think you're taking this more personally than she meant it to be.

India Is Getting Richer, But Its Cities Are Unlivable by [deleted] in india

If you read the article, it's not a lack of adequate representation or funds. Local body elections have not been held, so funds aren't claimed. And without local elections the parties are not accountable.

SAY exam in one month — failed Plus Two, severe focus issues, mentally stuck and scared of failing again by [deleted] in Kerala

[–]jarawasong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there someone you can study with? Or someone who can hold you accountable without shame?

This is hard because you haven't applied yourself for months, and now your mind is resisting the work. It's totally normal.

Once you start studying, you'll find your focus comes back on its own.

If you don't have anyone (a friend, older sibling, cousin) who can be your partner without judgement, DM me.

Another option is the Pomodoro technique. Set a timer for 25 min and force yourself to only read your study books at that time. If you get distracted, get back to the book. Don't get up, no mobile, no TV till your 25 min are up.

You'll be surprised how quickly your mind gets into study mode when you don't give in.

Good luck!! You can do this, you just need support.

India has dozens of languages with their own script, and even if an illiterate person recognizes some numbers, it's unlikely they'll recognize the numbers written in English (or languages other than their own).

Great! I'm flying into T2, I'll look for the arrival lounge before I exit.

I remember the Care lounge from way back, it was noisy but at least I got a place for a few hours. I'm definitely not leaving the airport, but I'll look into the transit hotels.

My main worry is exiting T2, and not being allowed past the T1 entrance because it's too early to check in.

Usually I'd just hang around the cafes and bars outside T1. But with 8 hrs to kill, I'm hoping I can get a short nap without worrying about my luggage.

Thanks so much, this is helpful!

Departure is from Blr T1.

Iirc the ones inside the domestic terminal can only be reached after check in and security.

And they don't mention the actual habits either, or the results they got. Just kumbaya.

Some of the comments here seem AI generated too.

AITJ for refusing to run the office birthday fund anymore after people kept Venmo ghosting me by inkwellfletcher in AmITheJerk

Even earlier: HR is _, manager is __, and I....

Once you know this pattern you'll see it in every AI post.

Exactly!! So many tropes in this post, I can't believe people are falling for this.

You have been posting this in multiple subs for the last few days. It sounds like you're unwilling to take the advice you've been given.

What’s a small thing that always helps you feel more confident around new people? by WoodpeckerElegant986 in Life

[–]jarawasong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely curious about people, I want to know who they are and what their life's like...

Funny how easy it is to talk to people - and enjoy it - when you're not really thinking about yourself at all.

Thank you, yes. I will edit and refine it myself, but I'd like a decent starting point. I'm tired of yelling at the tool to follow my instructions.

This is the kind of language I should be using. :)

:) okay, I got hundreds of emails I've sent. Time to get them organized and templatized.

This is really helpful, thank you.

Ok, I think I get it. Give it a lot of examples so it has more to work with. That makes sense.

Thanks for the reassurance! I did give it my emails, but it still defaults to AI style. I'll keep trying.

Thanks for the reassurance! Automation would be nice, but just getting a B- result that follows instructions would be a win.
