This is what I do now after trying and failing at "doing my best work and hoping to get recognized".
I'm bad at communicating when I've worked on something challenging, so now I realize I should never give more effort than can be noticed. You may think that's cynical, but this is a business and I'm paid not on what I actually do but what the business perceives me of doing.

- jupyternonuser 6y agoIn another comment you say you find the lying and mindgames to be morally offensive. How do you not find this morally offensive as well?
- giantg2 6y agoI read this as not giving any extra effort, which I think would help reduce the reliance of my self image on my work success. I wouldn't be lying and I wouldn't be playing head games.
