No matter how important you are at your company and how much money you rake in, you need to have other things to occupy your time. That might be art, dance, music, athletics, travel, or absolutely anything else.
You might want to consider using some of your days off to go on a proper vacation. You can use that time to recharge and remember what you enjoy in life, other than making strides in your career.
And when you get back to work, ask for a raise, join a union, or consider looking for better opportunities at other companies.
At the end of the day, it’s time spent with our loved ones that matters more than what’s in your bank account. That might sound cheesy, but it’s true. Research has unequivocally shown this. An 80-year study from Harvard has found that it’s our positive relationships that make us happiest and healthiest. So it only makes sense to prioritize them instead of leaving them on the back burner.
The ‘Eff Workipedia’ account was created in early 2020. Over the past 3+ years, the page has garnered 61.8k followers on Instagram.
The curator describes the project as a collection of ‘antiwork’ memes, referring to the movement that is incredibly popular on Reddit. People who embrace the antiwork mindset generally want a new way of looking at work. As something meaningful, purposeful, and lucrative, not just based on exploitation and fear.
Which of these work memes did you relate to the most, Pandas? Which ones made you laugh the hardest? Did you send any of them to your colleagues while they were busy with their work deadlines? What would you change about your workplace culture if you could? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section. And remember to take some time off!
