The lowest my self esteem had ever been was when I was religious. I'd avoid porn and masturbation for months on end, 6-8 etc, but eventually I'd get a little too turned on and "succumb" to it. I remember hearing peers discuss it as something disgusting, and I considered myself too impure to consider having a relationship.

I won't say my self esteem is amazing now, but I feel much better about myself, and don't think of myself as some terrible sinner who doesn't deserve happiness.

Same place I learned about her.

As a person who plays Final Fantasy, the only character with an ass that big is Byregot. Maybe she's got his blessing.

Hmmm, I know Savitri Devi hated just about everyone, but can't recall if she was sexist.

I don't know for sure, but I'm paid pretty high here comparatively for the company (I get paid less than I should for the actual experience and position, but it's a smaller company that pays everyone less), and I know I got paid more than some of my previous managers here while I was under them. I was also paid like 20k more than someone who started 2 years before me.

It's more the previous owners negotiated directly with each hire and I knew what I was worth more than they did.

Ah, I remember that, but since I never watched it i couldn't recognize a scene.

Definitely fair, and no argument against. Though, in both instances that I got laid off, it was on the 5th round of layoffs, and my bosses (who I got along with both times) got laid off before me in the 4th round. In addition, at one of the companies I was friends with the person who cut access and all, and they kept it secret from even her until the day after taking her phone and keeping them in a locked room. Both times someone either way up the chain or from HR delivered the news, so not sure the bosses would have even came into the convo, had they not already been canned anyway

Hmm, what's your definition of quiet quitting? The definition I understand is doing your job as it is described to you, but not doing any of the "going the extra mile" for free, or putting in extra effort beyond what the job description entails.

I'm also curious if those replying to you also have the same or different definitions, since conversations only work if we agree on the definition of terms.

Oh, Sugi didn't make that up? Interesting...

Eh,my current manager was under me prior to a change in teams. I didn't go for that position because I hate management. He's still a great guy who largely lets me work however I need to, and shields me from upper management. I like having good managers who can be a buffer between me (tech) and upper management who don't exactly understand what I do.

I'm a baba ganoush fan myself...switch out roasted eggplant for the chickpeas and the recipe is pretty similar.

Dying might change my mind, yes. I seem to be allergic to both kinds of bugs
