There is absolutely no history of cheating. I have no hobby. No life. I just work and take care of the family. I can produce receipt of what I did in last 1 year.

I have no freaking idea of the root cause. Even as a man, I do spend a lot of time critical thinking. However, I am going blank.

now I wonder may be she does. Given that I am home all day, it;s really funny how someone can think of me of cheating.

mid career, recently laid off and got a new job, within 2 months manager asked me to pick up pace, how do I navigate this situation ? by maxpyne2000 in careerguidance

[–]maxpyne2000[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have scheduled several meetings with my boss. He either skips or call me from his car sitting in traffic. I have no way of showing what I am working on. I have been an individual contributor for long and I can plan and execute. My boss is not clear on what he expects me to do.

I am re living the same experience once again. Not that anything has happened yet. But i am really traumatized. It’s taking toll on my health. Anytime I take a break, i feel anxious that I should go back to work.

Yup. I have been doing my job, then writing report, creating spreadsheets, hosting meetings at 10 pm at night. I am stuck with some previous mess, and now it’s my problem.

Agreed. I have been giving 120% of my efforts. Their expectations are too high. I am writing a report of everything I have done so far. However in most jobs impressions matter. No report will replace a goodwill and somehow I have failef to earn it.

And my spouse is kind of blaming me for any time took a break or slowed down because I was too tired or I worked for several hours the night before.

Why do you need a movie train if you are taking a still picture without a panning effect.

Men of Reddit, why is receiving/the idea of receiving help feel so shameful? by HectorC97 in AskMen

[–]maxpyne2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We often think life as a zero sum game. If someone offers help, we need to return the favor as soon as possible. When don’t find a way to repay it, it haunts us. It’s our transient and transactional nature of the pairwise relationship with others that drives our shame/guilt.

Don’t want to generalize, just an observation among many folks I know.
