CobaltChaser+FollowIs Opting Out of Hustle Culture Really Laziness? 🤔Lately, I've been questioning if not wanting to hustle 24/7 makes me lazy or just sane. I used to be the first one in and the last one out, skipping vacations and working through weekends, thinking that's what it took to get ahead. But after burning out, I realized I can't keep living like this—no life outside of work, just constant exhaustion. Now, my managers seem to expect everyone to be on call all the time, and I feel guilty for even wanting a real break. Am I unambitious for wanting boundaries, or is it just self-preservation? Has anyone else felt trapped by these expectations? I could really use some advice on how to deal with this without feeling like I'm letting myself—or my career—down. 😓 #WorkLifeBalance #HustleCulture #CareerAdvice #JobCareer00Share
FriskyFalcon+FollowIs It a Sin to Just Relax After Work?Lately, I feel like every conversation at work ends with someone bragging about their side hustle or passive income stream. I'm a software engineer in Austin, and for a while, I was tutoring on weekends for extra cash. Everyone kept telling me how smart it was, how I'd retire early if I just kept grinding. But honestly? I was miserable. The students didn’t care, and I was losing all my free time. Now that I’ve quit, I feel lighter, but I can’t shake the guilt. Why does it seem like relaxing is a crime these days? Is it really so bad to just binge a show with my dog after work? I’m tired of feeling like I have to monetize every spare minute. Does anyone else feel this pressure, or am I missing something? I’d love to hear how you all handle this nonstop hustle culture. 🛋️🐶 #WorkLifeBalance #HustleCulture #CareerAdvice #JobCareer246Share
DODOooo+FollowCould kindness have kept Harry & Meghan in the royal lap of luxury? 🤔👑Do Harry and Meghan realize how much easier life could’ve been if they’d just played nice? Back in the royal family, they wouldn’t have had to chase gigs to pay the bills. Private jets would’ve been their norm, stepping into luxury brands as easy as breathing, rubbing shoulders with elites, and having staff handle their every need. Now? They’re out here hustling, playing the victim on camera, crying foul at every turn. It makes you wonder—if they’d swallowed their pride and kept the peace, would they still be chasing their next paycheck instead of their next red carpet? Turns out, sometimes you gotta eat before you can demand respect. #HarryMeghan #RoyalLife #PrideVsPragmatism #LifeChoices #HustleCulture2823Share
