I'm starting to think that working in a large company requires a level of normieness and oversocialisation that I may never have. It's like my manager is expecting me to read her mind when it comes to my supposed level of involvement in various processes.

cool blog bro. that's just life? you can do whatever the fuck and they'll still bitch at you. I've been in other places, where they don't do that and I got paid more. Just move?

I used to struggle with similar things until I learned a critical skill: not giving a shit. I simply stopped caring about what happens at work as long as I don't get fired. If they want me to go to time wasting meetings, sure I'll sit there. They're paying me by the hour so I get paid to just sit there. If they ask my opinion, I just say OK and go along with whatever they want. I just maintain a few things to show them I've made progress any time they ask, even if it's tiny shit that only took 30 minutes. They're so disconnected they don't know how much I do or don't do.

What the fuck does that even mean
Is this a burger thing?

I understand asking retarded questions in customer meetings then I'd be pissed at you too. But what the fucm does your sentence mean?
