Working hard doesn’t pay off

You know what? I’m a contractor based in Latin America. I can say that working remotely would be wonders for some people here (it was for me) until they decided to move me to another department. Let’s say they aren’t paying me “badly” but no as much as I would like. Then, why do I say working hard doesn’t pay off? Well, hear me out.

I never thought this was true, I thought “if I stand out at my job they can give me a better position” wrong. They ofc gave me another position but with more work to do and the same payment, is it my fault?

You know, in my previous position I was chill all day long, now a coworker took my place, I’m sure she’s having a nice time. It was so simple, maybe because I made it seem simple they took note of that and decided to throw me at this other place? (I’m sure hell looks like this).

The new position is so painful, you don’t have idea. You have to figure out what customers want, they ask what they want. Yes, at least I don’t make phone calls, but there are deadlines to meet. The worst part about it it’s that there are no reliable workflows, you always end up doing something completely different from what it was stated before.

I think I’m gonna get fired in the next couple of months, I’m not keeping up tbh. And I think I could keep up, do I want though? Not really, I feel like I’m wasting my time and I’m not building my career.

Thanks for reading my rant.

Ayuda con paquete equivocado, casillero

Compre un monitor por amazon y cuando veo la imagen que ponen cuando entregan el producto es algo totalmente distinto. Uso intelliship. A alguien le ha pasado estas cagadas? Que han hecho? Ya lo tengo reportado en Intelliship, y en Amazon tambien he hablado pero dicen que “devuelva el producto”. No se que carajos hacer.

Hoy fui a la cita de la visa

Rechazada. No me sorprende. En parte mi mama queria que fuera con ella, en lo personal no me parecio la mejor decisión, pero ya que, me estaba pagando la cita asi que acepte.

Les quiero hacer una pregunta, ustedes en realidad creen que ese proceso es totalmente “transparente” y que no depende del consul?

A mi me da risa que iba saliendo una familia y dicen que solo entrevistaron al niño, que llevaba una camisa de pokemon y la consul les dijo que era fan y les dieron visa a todos jajaja.

Entonces, por que siempre hay gente que siempre te dice que es tu culpa por no llenar bien las cosas? O por no responder bien? Cuando mucha gente hace eso, estoy incluso segurisimo que hoy fue gente con mas plata, terrenos, vinculos mas fuertes aca y se las negaron 🤣 pijaso de gente que salia con el boletito blanco del 214b

I’ve been a PlayStation guy my whole life. Got my PS5 in October 2023 and genuinely enjoyed it but somewhere along the way I started doing the math, and it’s not pretty.

Over $1,500 in games and subscriptions since I got it for me. The thing is, I’m the type who finishes a game once and never touches it again. One playthrough, move on.

A friend with an Xbox kept pushing Game Pass on me. I brushed it off until I watched the Xbox Partner Preview a couple months ago and honestly, it hit different. Most of the games I paid full price for on PS5 are sitting right there in Game Pass. That stings.

On top of that, most PlayStation “exclusives” eventually land on PC anyway. And with Xbox, if you buy a game, you can play it on console, PC, and other devices.

I know this won’t apply to everyone, but for someone like me (a single-playthrough, move-on type) Game Pass just makes more sense. Selling the PS5 in the upcoming days and going Series X + a year of Game Pass Ultimate.
