Slack Separation Anxiety

The anxious feeling you get when you should be working and online but are in fact not actively working, namely that someone might be trying to reach you via Slack and you will be unable to respond to them or provide what they need in that moment. Which, of course, will immediately get you fired.

Common symptoms: Ghost phone vibration, thinking you heard a slack ping, etc

Anxiety

No. It isn't a manifestation of the mind. It's a thing you're doing deliberately.
Hym "And that anxiety bullshit sounds like it's downstream a Dr. JeepJorp's nonsense."

A retard "Uh, um, well, aren't WE ALL like a Truman Show? Right? Guys?"

Hym "No. No. We aren't. They're just going to keep stabbing your fucking kids guys. YOU NEED TO PAY THE PIPER. STAB-PROOF BABY-WALKERS- No! Wait, what are those fucking called? The things you push them around in? Fuck. I can't think of the word. God, wow, but no. This isn't a 'We're all kind of a Truman show' thing. It's a 'This was a stupid fucking thing to do and if people are dying because of it it's because we aren't as smart as we thought we were.' Thing. You are the meat-shields people like Jordan Peterson have been using to keep themselves alive since the dawn of civilization. Jordan and Robert alike. And you're only defending them because 'Insert sunk cost fallacy.' "
