Due to me having a kid.. I STAND DOWN on a lot of situations & people! Pls don’t ever confuse me walking away or standing down as being WEAK or SCARED. The ONLY thing I’ll ever be scared of or weak about is being away from my kid.
Seeing your baby hit milestones is such a bittersweet feeling… 🥺 Yes they’re getting smarter, learning new things & growing into their own little person, but at the same time, they’re getting bigger, more independent, and slowly needing you a little less. It’s beautiful… but it tugs at your heart all at once. 🤍
A coworker died yesterday morning😭.
HR knew by 9 :00 AM, but they kept us working all day. They finally told us around 4 :30 PM, then had the nerve to say, "You can head home early if you need to"—knowing we all finish at 5: 00 PM anyway.
This morning, it’s back to "business as usual." Some of my friends are literally sobbing at their desks, but they’re expected to work and be productive. No time to grieve.
It’s a cold reality. Within a week, the company will have his job posted online. Within a month, someone else will be sitting in his chair.
But his family ,his children will still talk about him every day,they will ask where is daddy , His wife will mourn him for ages ,he was the love of her life .
At work, we are just a "resource" that can be replaced in a week. At home, we are the world. Stop giving your best energy to a desk that will forget you, and giving the "leftovers" to the people who never will.
