This works particularly well if they’re in a service industry or have a private office but roll up with coffee and distract them! Obviously don’t do this if it would get them in trouble but if it’s chill, do it! It’s fun and makes work feel less hellish

💥when the post lunch slump hits at work I like to make an offhand comment that shocks my older co-workers like "y'know I have like 20 euro's in my checking account" or "I went to bed at 3 am last night"
their immediate worry and outrage fuels me (and it wakes them right up too, win win)

If you have an office or go to an office, bring a little coloring book and put it in the employee lounge. I love just sitting in between meetings coloring a little picture

🏭If you can, it's just a job. They don't care about you so you shouldn't care so much about them. If you can find mental space to let your mind wander, take notes for ideas you want to do or even sneak in equipment or a sketchbook for doodling. This obviously doesn't work for all types of jobs, especially if it includes manual labor or any type of person-to-person care. Work isn't family. Sneak in time for yourself.

❔I was going through the Ignatian approach to education today (adapted from the Spiritual Exercises for those keeping track at home) and this tenet is just so good.
St. Ignatius says that a person, “ought to be more eager to put a good interpretation on a neighbor’s statement than to condemn it.Further, if one cannot interpret it favorably, one should ask how the other means it. If the meaning is wrong, one should correct the person with love; if this is not enough, one should search out every appropriate means through which, by understanding the statement in a good way, it may be saved.”
This is very Hanlon’s razor (never attribute to malice what you can attribute to stupidity/ignorance) and I just feel like having a curious posture like this is a major slay and makes us better people

Like look at this shit. Just kinda sick tbh. The Eastern church invented maximalism which is just very slay for them (even if you aren't into God or whatever I feel like you can enjoy old buildings with tons of art everywhere)
