Finally did. Scared about what I will be doing tomorrow night. I don’t want to end up with another hernia. Off 8 weeks recently because of it. I should have demoted myself before I came back. Scared of change I guess. Now my feet hurt. Factory job. 48 Male
Was an AVP in a bank moved to a different company to work as a software consultant with a 10% hike. I would be earning more than what I’m earning if I had stayed, but I’m happy now.
The company I worked for had installed software that tracks keyboard and mouse movements, it considers I’m idle if I don’t touch them for 180 seconds. Sometimes I lose more than 50% of the time because of attending meetings, it would report I was unproductive.
It always gave me a feeling like someone constantly standing behind my back and watching.
I usually work fast and complete things well in advance and spend time in the thought process of solving problems and enhancing existing process. Though I delivered more than what was expected from me, I was feeling insecure by someone gauging my performance by the amount of time I spent on computers.
