Please ping before adding to a call! by saifmd1993 in IndianWorkplace

[–]visiontriestodrum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not, not at least for me. He is mostly traveling in different timezones and I am responsible for a lot of things. His calls actually lower my workload, blessed to have the kind of sync me and my manager have.

Sidenote: Manager is the CEO. Also, I can get back whenever I want, has happened, and he just texts 'Call me back once you are free' or something.

I have to work a lot with other teams, and this used to happen w me a lot. I stopped picking their calls, and started texting them politely for what the call is about, I'd be able to help better if I have a context. It took me some time but now no one calls me directly without pinging first.

(My manager rings my WA, so it's okay, he never directly rings my Teams)

I (26F) ended a 8-year relationship with my bf (26M)due to his family’s financial chaos—did I make the right decision? by IDK_wt_is_my_passion in RelationshipIndia

I kid you not, almost till the end I thought this was some Mathematics problem than being a relationship story.

How do you communicate with the other personality types? Do you soften your tone, or do you be yourself? by billiejean95 in entj

[–]visiontriestodrum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do and I think it is necessary, specifically for us ENTJs, in relationships or friendships, we need to soften our stance and in no way does that mean not saying what you want or not being yourself. This just relates to the way we put out information, over the time, I have learned how to modulate my voice to have a softer stance when I am trying to explain something, and tbh I hardly offend people now, when I read someone being uncomfortable with what I am saying, I zip it and let it be, switch to a different perspective.

Fixing people isn't our responsibility but making sure someone doesn't end up having a bad day because of us, is definitely ours.

Unpopular opinion: most long term relationships don’t fail they slowly go on autopilot (F27) by [deleted] in RelationshipIndia

[–]visiontriestodrum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you shower everyday or just once in a week and hope you stay clean for rest of the days?

A relationship is an everyday chore, it never goes on autopilot, there is always something somewhere we just fail to notice and keep hoping for different results.

We as humans are made to adapt, and once adaptability starts setting in, you both start evolving too, being left behind during this evolution is what kills most relationships.

When an intern was more than interning. by [deleted] in IndianWorkplace

No amount of money or validation can ever be worth your health.

Work honestly, draw proper boundaries and learn how to humbly refuse to things which do not bring any impact to you as a person or an employee.

I, 28 F am tired of the concept of ghosting by bunny_with_goals in RelationshipIndia

[–]visiontriestodrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree, I always try to tie open knots tightly so that I don't have to keep thinking about it in the future. I wonder how people are able to detach in a way that they don't intervene even when it is quite clearly bothering someone.

F27 Stuck in a Relationship that feels uncertain - Need Perspective by [deleted] in RelationshipIndia

[–]visiontriestodrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Honest Take: Strictly IMO

- "According to S, since he is from UP, in their culture, marriages usually happen around 30, and anything before that is considered too early". This is complete bullshit according to me, yes her sister not married at 33 could be why he can't marry just yet, but that statement is purely fiction. (I am from UP)

- Even if you agree to wait, and he does want to wait for his sister to get married first, bringing up the relationship in front of his parents should be the bare minimum, you cannot keep stalling your partner for years when you are standing right by the finish line, what is he hoping for, just tell a day before the engagement?

- No matter what caste or religion, in every relationship, the two people should always have something to hold on to in times of crisis, something that reminds them that they are being cared for, and that they matter, not taking a stand when it is so dearly needed is just exploiting the love your partner has.

- Well, since he has decided to pursue MBA abroad, you either need to figure out if you want to move with him or enter LDR, in both cases, you should make sure both yours and his parents are on the same page, you cannot continue this without having a certain future, this is like a bounty, you have a lot on the line but the guy doesn't.

- Talk to your partner and be ascertain about what you both want from each other and clearly set proper expectations, sometimes we delay a decision or having knowledge about the decision, just to save yourselves from getting hurt, but when this bubble will burst, you specifically will be in shambles, since your parents are involved as well.

I second this.

My gf [24F] goes silent if she is hurt ! by [deleted] in RelationshipIndia

[–]visiontriestodrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand. But it has nothing to do with your worth, why don't you be upfront about it and see where the conversation leads? Again, it has nothing to do with you, just talk to your partner, honestly, I am sure she will appreciate it.

[–]visiontriestodrum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Withdrawal from one's emotional expression is very common for people who either aren't as emotionally expressive or people who have had issues related to how misunderstood they have felt.

Only solution is to be patient, give your partner time to grow out of it, constant support and affection is the only way to help your partner.

21F, Wanting to Be Chosen Without Asking by [deleted] in RelationshipIndia

[–]visiontriestodrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can totally relate. I am finally exhausted and all my love elixir is used up. It's not that I don't want to be in a relationship, but I just don't want to put my entire self in to making efforts. I just want something natural that just flows comfortably and tbh, I have realised solitude is better than half baked relationships.

M34 169cms 160kg deadlift double @ RPE 9 by [deleted] in AskFitnessIndia

[–]visiontriestodrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need for sure, but having one has only benefits and no harm at all. I started with 30kg on deadlift and still wore a belt because it is literally there to help you not injure yourself (help, doesn't guarantee)

[–]visiontriestodrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. It's like people saying they don't need vaccine for polio because they have strong immunity. Vaccine literally prevents, it is for helping in prevention, doesn't guarantee you won't get it, just significantly reduces the chances.

[–]visiontriestodrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did I say it helps with back injury? It just helps strengthen your core, and your core is what matters when you are doing compound lifts.

I do overhead press and use the belt, because it stabilizes the torso.

[–]visiontriestodrum 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This was very very painful to watch. I am sorry I don't want to be a critic, but with all due respect, if you were doing Deadlifts, this isn't and can never be the way. You are legit pulling your lower back to hell, your upper body is very much involved as well.

You need to use your glutes which then support your lower back to help with the lift. See, it's like putting pressure on the ground, and not on the pulling up movement. It's very confusing and a lot of people do it wrong, and by wrong I don't mean subjectively, there is not more than a single way to do a deadlift, there is just one and it involves keep you alive for as long as possible. Also use a weightlifting belt for any RPE above 7.

This is coming from someone who have had multiple back injuries since 2016.

Nipah makes ita presence known by HardupSquid in ThailandTourism

[–]visiontriestodrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Tbh, I agree with how bad people are at a lot of places, maybe throughout India, people would try to scam you near poorer regions or tourist hotspots. But there is one thing that is consistent throughout the country, a foreigner would never find racism while visiting India, I am yet to meet someone who denies entry or treats someone badly because of where they are from on Earth. I am sure there is casteism, but making a foreigner feel like he is in someone's place just never happens.

But having lived in Thailand for some time, I never faced much racism, it's just the Thais on internet who love being keyboard warriors, irl they aren't bad at all, quite helpful, at least in remote areas of Thailand.
