Help me get rid of my positive work ethic!

Aug 27, 2021 9 Comments

This is probably a result of my upbringing.

In my fantasy land, I am great my work (genuinely good not fake good), get promoted, and get lots of TC.

Instead I'm great at my work (I am the single point of failure for my team), promo is slow as fuck and TC is ok for now but cliff is coming.

I'm not good at LC and have been spending months brushing up and still can't clear my tier 1 like #google #apple #facebook. Blinders would say chill, take my TC of $300k and get paid to leetcode. Why r u upset? But I get upset. Because I'm not doing my work well.

This year I get the same rewards as the last few years for putting in less efforts. It's clear the TC winners are doing work that is good enough for 'govt job' and keep LCing and keep jumping ship.

I know how to play the game I know the rules. But I still am unhappy. Maybe it's because I suck at LC? Or maybe it's because I like to get real work done to do real shit?

Blinders please brainwash me so that I want to be LC parasite (people who do enough to be average, keep LC and jump ship).

L63, $300k, 7 yoe.
