Well, I just got diagnosed with ADHD and instantly got Concerta. So I guess I'm one of you after all?
Oh and I burned out at around 28 I guess. Stopped keeping up with my riggid, cruel job.
So my real self is just less efficient, pisses people off constantly, and is utterly alien to everything I built to do.
Put in that 60% and clock out. That is all they are paying you for.
Yeah, I stopped trying, I know it won't earn me more money. I just do a decent job, no slacking, no rushing. I don't run around anymore, got yelled for it anyway.
