Date: June 21st, 2026 9:48 PM Author: AI has never started a F500 company I'm a software engineer. I found out last October that I was being laid off in April but I didn't start applying for jobs right away so I could get my "transition bonus"
then my layoff date came. I applied for a couple weeks, got through a few rounds at some companies, got discouraged and am now traveling with family and CHILLING and POASTING. |

Honestly so much work is just fraud bullshit, so it's understandable that you aren't chomping at the bit to get back to it. |

I have about $50K in my bank accounts and $400K between two 401(k)s. no assets, not even a car.
yeah exactly. I've never been a high-intrinsic-motivation person, and - as is probably the case for 95% of poasters - I've never had to put "effort" into anything to perform well, so I never learned to. for my first job out of college I only sent out like five apps and pretty much immediately got a job. for my second and most recent, it was about a two-month process but I was employed while searching so there was no rush. |

Date: June 21st, 2026 10:22 PM Author: AI has never started a F500 company well when I'm genuinely interested in something I can put tons of time and effort into it. but I don't think that's ever happened professionally (and it was never necessary academically). you?

|
Date: June 21st, 2026 10:29 PM Author: icanseemyneurons same i dunno. i get myopically into things in private but still step back and dont understand why/what im doing. so i just let that fly professionally. if there's a problem to solve at work i can get pretty obsessive about solving it regardless of what it is. i guess my specific motivations are usually pointing thing out I think people don't see. in general i hate superficiality.

Date: June 21st, 2026 10:38 PM Author: AI has never started a F500 company can you explain the second sentence? I relate to the latter part of your poast. although your version of that is probably more profound - at my job, sometimes that just means coming up with a thorough and systematic approach to something other people may have approached in a less organized way.
I forgot to mention, professionally what motivates me is time pressure. I'll procrastinate something for a few days and when it gets to the point where I calculate it'll look REALLY bad if I don't finish soon, I'll put in a really long day or two and bang it out. and then I often receive praise for the quality of my work - which is funny because I think I only half deserve it and the other half is that people are primed to be impressed by it because it took longer than it was supposed to. lolol |
|
Date: June 21st, 2026 10:43 PM Author: icanseemyneurons yeah exactly. i relate to the time pressure thing but sort of self-impose deadlines, so i finish early and i think people don't have the same reaction. which in your case is incredibly strategic lol.
i think thats what i meant with the second sentence. i just like the feeling of tunnel vision for its own sake. its probably feeding some need for grandiosity, where i feel like im staking everything on this 1 project and i need to ignore everything else and commit everything to this.
if im reading you right that's kinda what you're saying around coming up with a systematic approach even if it might be overkill. its something about feeling like this problem needs an urgent, systematic solution and everything else can wait. love that feeling regardless of what it is. |

one thing normies are definitely better at is struggling and settling. xo poas and pumos just don't get it.
|
|
Date: June 21st, 2026 10:32 PM Author: AI has never started a F500 company failure/rejection: I get emotionally attached to things sometimes and rejection hurts in that sense. like when I get through a few rounds of interviews at a company that genuinely seems like a good match, I kinda get my heart set on the job and get pretty bummed when I don't get it. but I don't take it personally or let it affect my confidence or anything. well, maybe for a day or so but I think that's pretty standard.
adversity: I've never had to face anything difficult in my life :/ |

You rob and scam people, isolate their perspectives, and then call it "schizophrenia". And in this case there are a lot of torah and other type jews on my side wondering why this guy who made stuff they liked suddenly isn't (making it) anymore And then they listen, and they find out for themselves, and this business regarding a simple and caring "mental health" safeguard we have in place being abused by people too-skilled at abusing it becomes apparent I will have no problem dropping this garbage and returning to normal but I'm not going to do it until my complaints have been addressed and rectified |
