used to be really good, I’m no longer any good. I’ve tried to wise up a little recently

9 at the job I’m supposed to do. Lower for the rubbish they try and get me to do instead. They know this too.

we are going on what you know to be true in your soul

#8

a solid, reliable 7 at my usual job, 9 at the system implementation stuff that’s taking up loads of my time rn.

#10

not the best not the worst and occasionally I curse
to get my point across

#11

They had an analysis challenge week and I won it so am objectively the best, also got to pretty much invent my own role when I got promoted so only do the stuff I’m good at (and never going to an assertiveness or presentation skills course ever again)

only 2 out of 23 people are below average apparently

#16

I’m unemployed

#17

think I overrated myself and am feeling a sudden burst of self-consciousness

Dunno how to put a number on it. Currently self-employed, so the only person rating me is me. Not making as much money as I’d like, but also don’t have to do anything I hate. The current things I’m working on will make me money once they’re finished, but the whole working on something but not earning any money until it’s done + also the client being you with no external motivation means you have to rely entirely on your own internal motivation.

#19

are 19 people bang on average and 2 above?

#20

average should be 5.5 assuming a fixed interval scale
maybe disers are just great employees generally

#21

#22

There’s a difference between being incompetent and not being arsed to be competent
It’s not a huge difference, but it’s there…

Place would fall apart without me if I’m honest

Adult colouring book + sewing kits where you cut out the item from pre-printed fabric + a load of repeating patterns for textiles + some articles for stuff + reprinting/relaunching children’s lit articles zine

I actually feel like I’m being really cynical about doing the colouring book, because I’m not into them at all, but they sell, so…

Won’t be able to put the sewing kits into production until after Christmas though, because the whole combo of the timeframe from the printers + christmas shopping/shipping timeframe + not being able to do good product shots and instructions photos with styled interiors until I move house. Better to start next year and do it properly and have really good promo shots/packaging/free samples for magazines, and be able to ship fast than have a load of disappointed customers who didn’t get stuff in time for christmas or find I have things I should have ironed out rather than rush for Xmas. Basically do it properly and well, as you can’t buy back good will if you’ve lost it.

Part of the reason I fuck around on here all day is that I can get the same volume of work my colleagues manage done in a fraction of the time.

I’ve been doing this job for ten years and I am veritably a legend in my own lunchtime.
