>new employees have to send emails about themselves when they start at the company
>get emails every week
>feel so jealous and competitive about every little thing
>e.g., they say they like reading and I instantly worry that they read more patrician books than me and are smarter
>they mention travelling and I worry that they're richer (90 % chance they are lol)

I can't even convert my bitterness and jealousy in to hard work. Hopefully I will.

In todays hyper competitive world alot of people no most people are so obsessed with self improvement and being amazing that its cult like and vain. And its all because of social media.

Your just picking up on the bullshit people emenate, just surround yourself with normal grounded people who do everyday things and ignore/ostracize the douchebags who are trying to maximize their self image.

"I'm sorry Anon, but we're going to have to let you go. Technical skills are just a small part of a job. There's also communication skills, empathy, and leadership."

Although honestly, there's no penalty.

You sound like you're personality disordered so if you're older than 25 you're totally fucked.

Prepare for this >>16055840 in 6-12 months and better luck at your second job.

Men and women working together has slowly but surely converted the workplace into a high school where being Chad is about as valuable as being a top performer. Spergs in the workplace are doomed.

Nothing wrong with the system here, just another weakling being weak. Evolution will sort out your line eventually.

Except everybody is maximizing their self-image by pretending to be kitsch. The world has grown into hyper-cliques of behavior that people are convinced is correct because they curl themselves into whatever social group matches the influencers they're paying attention to - print, media, or whatever.

The deeper problem is the essence of advertising, which is really just a business case for sociophysics. Even in its nascent state, its an extremely powerful social tool that televisions magnified to an absurd extent by placing it ten steps and one click away, only for laptops and phones to double down by taking away the steps.

If your vision of the future is anything other than people living in a specialized room with an individualized sex bot / personal helper and their own personalized, deepfaked entertainment, with their own personalized quick-prep meal, I don't know what to tell you. The shit's scary and it's not gonna start going in reverse all of a sudden because you find Dave who buys John Deere tractors instead of Marcy who watches Kendall Jenner makeup tutorials.

How have you not suckered them into investing alongside you or starting a business with you?

It's so easy to meme friends into giving you money. You really want to sweep the rest of your life?
