Here’s mine, Care deeply about any work that you touch, give your best and more.
The effort really shows, especially when you can solve something better than what they hoped for.
Contradictory to your lesson… I learned not to get too attached to your code. Bcoz it might just get scraped.
Avoid office politics and gossiping the most. Imo it doesn't really help and nobody is a friend in the office. Stay away from all this shit, maintain a good solid image of your work and professional integrity. Rest is moh maya ;)
Mine is to stay detached from the projects I work on at work. And always keep working on some personal project and allow myself to stay attached to these projects instead of the projects at work.
This gives me a fine balance to handle work and grow.
@TookTook and I could not agree more to this.
Karm pe focus karo, not on Outcome.
Love this advice!
Whatever maybe the case, don’t burn bridges with anyone in office(even be it someone whom you hate to the core). It’s a small world and a long career(4 decades). You never know whom you bump into in the future. Better stay on neutral ground than being on the enemy side. Will save you a lot of trouble and open to lot of options. This is called being diplomatic in corporate.
Yours is positive. Only thing I got positive from work is credit in account.
My learning- Be detached. The company will survive without you. Stop being there for work "emergencies" at 11 pm. It can wait.
@BiryaniEnthu Damn now that is something crazy.
The idea is to take "work" as "work". There is a whole life outside work
Don't bring any kind of feelings to work. Gossips/being angry/favouring someone etc is just complicating your life.
You're only lending your time in return for money. Care only about what will help you make more money or what will help you learn which will help you make more money.
Hello good people of grapevine,
I have recently started my full-time job as a software engineer, and wanted to start my journey into investing.
After doing a bit of research, I feel SIPs in mutual funds is the way to go forward at this...
I know it’s early, but it’s an extended weekend 😅
Share an article / post that made you go ‘Aha’ in the recent past.
Let me start with one - would love to hear opinions on this.
Amazing share! Climbing the wrong hill https://cdixon.org/2009/09/19/climbing-the-wrong-hill/
What is the one advice you would have given to your younger self when you were just about the start your first job straight out of college? Grapeviners experiences would really come in handy :) Cheers!!
