SHOW NOTES:
Did people whine as much years ago as they do now?
They won't let me succeed at my job. They won't hire me anywhere else.
Maybe "toxic workplaces" are caused by toxic employees? Maybe terrible bosses are just leaders expecting employees to meet deadlines and fulfill assignments?
The fault is with the "Boomers" or GenX because they took advantage, they led great lives, and left nothing for us! Nothing but a healthier, safer world and the last decade of constantly improved living standards.
I'm not valued! Maybe because you don't create much value and you don't make it visible.
Take some accountability, and stop immersing yourself in the internet for that good old confirmation bias from other people who don't take initiative.
If you're unhappy in your job, change it or leave it. There's plenty of work out there that pays well, isn't threatened by AI, but does require responsibility and ownership.
But just stop whining, stop yelling for your Mama.
It ain't your mother's fault.

SHOW NOTES:
There are myriad claims on social media that are justified by the author observing (or being a self-proclaimed expert in) "body language." I have always thought this was ridiculous, sort of a faux psychological claim of expertise. Of course, the French have long studied graphology (handwriting) to determine behavioral traits (hard in a world forsaking cursive), and scapulimancy, the study of old, burned animal shoulder bones, has been used by various cultures to contact the gods.
"Body language" is a similar myth. You don't believe me, here's what Psychology Today has to say about it:
"Every day, we get queries from around the world about non-verbals and invariably about detecting deception through body language. The biggest takeaway from the hundreds of messages is that despite the undeniable importance of nonverbal communication, many myths and false beliefs undermine its importance, relevance, or utility. So, we decided to pool our resources and comment on ten myths about body language that are currently trending, and you may notice some have been trending for a long time."

But why trust me or science? After all, who knows what my body language looks like right now?
