What's Bothering You?

What is bothering me and has been bothering me for a while now is that at my job, the workload distribution within my team is really imbalanced due to favoritism. I’m doing a lot of the work, sometimes not even appropriate for my level, and just literally buried in all these super operational and non value adding work, while boss sings a team member praises to the heavens because that person really understands the business and does great strategic level of support... lol of course! Because the said person never need to be sidetracked by all these other stupid projects and ad hoc work, has 10 times more time to be involved in these more important discussions and have time to actually do learning and attend all these workshops.. and when the said person do get one “unimportant” tasks as an assignment, boss ask us to thank this person for taking the bullet for the team.. um... excuse me?
I actually have no beef with this team member and we are good friends at work, and initially I did not really minded and took boss comments most times as a light joke, but I feel like over time the favoritism is just way too much that it makes me a bit resentful for unfair treatment at times.
 
I suck at Ace Attorney lol

though tbf today is the first time I've ever interacted w this series outside of my friend talking about the hilarious characters and their punny names.
 
I think I already upset my new boyfriend due to a bad habit I might have started. He's worried I'll keep the habit up,, I wanted to be like him and do bad stuff like him but he's worried about me now and wants me to chill though tonight he basically went **** it do what you want,, ;-; aaa
 
@Midoriya I’m so sorry. From your description of her she sounds like she was an amazing person, and although I’ve never met her, I think she is the kind of person who loved everybody and is the kind of person who truly makes our dim world just a tad brighter. My greatest condolences go out to you and your family, and my prayers are all for her.
@Katzenjammer, sending you and your parents positive vibes. ❤

@Midoriya, my heart is aching for you. 🥺 Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need a listening ear.
Nooo that's horrible news. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom, I know she meant a lot to you. May she rest in peace. I feel like I could cry on your behalf but I'm sending my strongest vibes to you.
I'm so saddened to hear of your loss. It sounds like your mother was a wonderful person. :( <3

Thank you all so much. I really do appreciate it. :cry:
 
Sorry about your mom man. I just lost a great uncle to cancer as well..

Thank you, Milky. I’m sorry to hear about your great uncle. </3

@Midoriya very sorry to hear. I believe you can get through this, but take as much time as you need to grieve... cancer is so horrible and so unfair

Thank you. Yeah, I’ll get through it. It’ll just take some time. I appreciate it.
 
I am so sorry and devastated to hear... Your mom sounded like an amazing, kind, and loving person. You were always there for her and helped her very much this year and I know that definitely meant the world to her.
That's sad, sorry to hear about your mom passing away.
Hopefully everything will get better soon.

Thank you both. I really do appreciate your kind words. < 3

I honestly can't really relate to the pain you must be going through right now. Just hope you're doing somewhat alright, at least as much as one can be in a situation like this. From the posts I've seen she sounded like an amazing person.

Thank you, buddy. You don’t have to be able to relate to it. I appreciate your kind words, and yes, she was amazing. :)
 
To all those who sent kindness my way about my grandpa being sick, I really appreciate it.

Unfortunately, his condition has not improved enough and he has to receive medical treatment at another facility. One of my family members has volunteered to go so he isn't alone. I'm at a loss for words.
 
After around a ten month battle with gastric (stomach) cancer, my mom passed away today. It is the saddest and crappiest day of my life. I cried a bunch and others did too. My mom was the most positive person in the world, and I would think that even if she wasn’t a parent of mine. Always putting others before herself, doing great things, self-accomplished and self-driven. She brightened everyone’s days whenever she appeared. There was, in a sense, no one quite like her, and I don’t think there ever will be again. I loved her so, so, so much and it’s still sinking in that she’s gone. Let December 1st, 2020 be known as a pretty bad day all around and I seriously can’t wait until this year is over.

oh my god. riley, i am so, so sorry.
