Osheaga 2018




I’ve always wanted to go to a major musical festival and, this summer I did! I went to Osheaga which is, by a stretch, our Montreal version of Coachella. Ok, really by a stretch. But to give you an idea there were 45,000 attendees per day for three days.

And I was one of them.

My friend and I bought the tickets on a whim. We were on a terrasse, having a beer, and one of us said: “I’ve always wanted to go to Osheaga”. We both thought, well, why not?

The Scare of Underperforming



N.B.: This was written a week after my salary increase. I just never got around to posting it.

———————————

As some of you may know, I got a salary increase. I did not ask for it. It was a merit-based increase. I was told that I went above and beyond my required tasks.

I was ecstatic.

However, right after the increase, I got scared. I was scared of underperforming. I was scared that I wasn’t good enough for my new position.

And... I started making stupid mistakes.
