All the good vibes sent your way.

@silverfox

You can re-bind them pretty easily too if you wanted.

We know I have thoughts and feelings on my current job. It's stressful with 50+ work hours, no respect, etc.

I mean, I'm not quitting yet. I have dreams of it though, happy dreams.

I do however have an interview at 10am on Monday (EST) for a new better job. So good thoughts if you have a moment to spare.

I got my Esme cat!!!! I'm soooooooo excited. It's my first ever anything related to a char I have played. I just again want to say I'm super excited that I have one.

I also don't have a scanner, so can't share (but it's okay if @Crawfish wants to). Thank you!!

@saturna Okay explain to the old person, what is redbubble?

This does make me curious to know who else has an etsy shop.

@yourmamasayswhat

I'm always excited for someone's happy. OVERLY excited. I will squee for you. I have two settings sleep and kitty freakout. There is no in between.

Where is this link to order things when ordering is allowed?

@macha said in The ADD/ADHD Thread (cont'd from Peeves):

I had heard it is a common ADD thing? I mean, having music in one ear while I was in class let me function in college. And lets me get through work super quick

Wait. Is this an ADD thing? I use to have to study with music going. I had to split focus to focus, if that makes sense.

@wretched

THIS.

So in life I'm pretty optimistic and bubbly. I feel like that's the word they use for controlled (?) chaos. When I get in an emergency situation, it's like my brain slows down but in reality I think I'm just processing everything and handling it. HOWEVER - when the emergency is over and I feel I'm in a safe place/everything is handled. I lose it then.

That moment that I am literally tapping my fingertips together and clicking my nails as I think. It's a nervous habit. I have people in my circle and around my circle IRL and online that are not having a good time right now. No matter how removed from them I am, I can't help thinking if I've done something. Now. That might be fine, but here comes my stress.

My brain:
Do I ask them? What if I am the issue and I ask them and they didn't want me to. Then they feel harassed by me for asking even though I'm not sure if I'm the cause, but I could be the cause right? I mean it's possible. People say if you think its you, it must be you. So do I write them off and never talk to them again? I mean, I guess I sort of have to.

Also my brain:
But.. what if... hear me out. What if you are not the reason, but by not reaching out you are making them feel like you don't care? However, they aren't going to tell you that they feel this way they will wait for you to ask, but you arent asking because it could be you. How do you ask without asking? What if you are adding to their feelings of (insert issue here) because you aren't asking? Does this make you a bad person? You should really reach out.

Also my brain:

But.. wait for this.. what if you were originally right and it is you and you reaching out is resurfacing what they are feeling and....

Does anyone else do this? It's exhausting. Is this normal? Is this just me?

Thank you for all your feedback.

Raises are out of my hands as they are union set and by their voted in raise guidelines.

Benefit packages are also over my head, however, it doesn't mean I won't try to influence that.

We do have keriugs (spelling?) and free 'pods' of all types not as cool as a cappuccino machine. I tried man. I tried.

I also have a GREAT team. They are amazing. I have an open door policy and I stand by it, for everything. If it's just they are having a bad day, etc. They are always free to come in and I try to empower them more than not. It has been a ROUGH year for everyone. I'm looking at ways to make it so they want to come to work, not just check a box. It's not that I have high turn over, it's just I want to do stuff within my power to appreciate them.

So maybe another question?

What has made you feel appreciated at a job you have worked at, currently, previously, or hopefully?

I have been thinking of how to get my team at work to be more excited to work. I'd like them to be more productive as I'm a manager and that's a goal. However, I really just want to boost morale. I want this especially after the last year we have had dealing with everything.

My team has worked through 2020. It's a customer service division. I have around 100 on my team right now. So this is what I'm coming to all of you for.

Tell me what in your job made an impression on you. What would you have liked to see your first day on a job? A welcome? A map? Etc? What would have motivated you or helped you have fun?

There is no right or wrong answer, I'd just like some 'this was cool' or 'this made me feel cared for' or 'this made me want to stay at my job' ideas.

Thanks to any that assist!

When you are in a bad headspace because of life, so you aren't playing your uber happy char. When you login to check in on what you are missing. You get 'hey you were missed' pages without any guilt or without anyone trying to pull you to scenes. Just letting you know they are here to pick up when you come back.

@TiredEwok said in Things Coded in Firan:

It has been 17 years since I RPed there.

Why? Why did you have to go and throw that out there? We were all getting along and now I feel attacked.... and old. Old and attacked.

@silverfox

I don't discord. Much to many annoyances when I respond to that. It's not me being shady or anything, I really don't use it. I don't use many out of game communications with people

I am sad I am not witnessing this char.

You could be...

totally could be.

Oh.. how can this be? Tell me more.

I am sad I am not witnessing this char.

I have all this housework to do... like a lot of it.

I'm just like... meh. Pretty sure this is my hello depression my old friend moment.

I mean, I'll do it, but.. meh.

@faraday

So I watched all these videos. I forgot you/someone had directed me before. I had them bookmarked and just didn't circle back (irony). So I played a game on my phone, while watching them all.... then I went back between wanting to cry, feeling called out, and being like OMG.. it's.. normal?!

Then I did the 'through your child's eyes' thing for attention disorders. It was like being back in school. I could feel all the stress and all the yep this. --- I may have chuckled at the college degree thing too. Where I barely have my associates, but I have like 600 level+ psych classes because I was interested in it.

So um... thank you.
