I have just had a rough week at work due to some difficult deadlines that none of my senior managers are willing to hear out, and we lost some additional developers due to a layoff. I’m really stressed
Image alt text: A cat sitting beside a stack of hot dogs, looking curiously at the delicious food. There is additional text at the top of the image that reads “After a life of hard work I finally have all the hotdogs. Yet I still feel empty inside.”
That’s because cat wants cheeseburgers, not hot dogs
Gee, Billy, why does your mom let you eat all the wieners?
If you feel empty inside after eating hot dogs then you are nae true hotdog lover. No biggie. Not everyone can handle all beef franks, a dollop of chili, chopped onions, and mustard on brioche buns. Maybe you are a BLT lover instead, or perhaps a chocolate lover? Maybe those would fill you up and temporarily make you forget all your occupational drama, if only briefly. You can always make up for it by spending a little more time working out or exercising the next day, which is also good for dealing with stress. Win-win.
What if it is just a coping mechanism for trauma? I… my stomach is full, but I remain empty.
Sounds like you work for business people. Find a company run by engineers.
You ever have the thought come into you’re head that “I can’t wait to get home” even though you’re already sitting at home
the endless cycle of samsara
Cuz you haven’t eaten them
I think you’re missing the last step where you put the hotdogs inside. Then you will not be empty.
