Rest assured, I’m in agreement. I’m just joking that the dude who was the first to use an explosion to leave the planet might have some nerves that needed calming.
Trauma is an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, rape, or natural disaster. Immediately after the event, shock and denial are typical. Longer term reactions include unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships, and even physical symptoms like headaches or nausea.
While these feelings are normal, some people have difficulty moving on with their lives. Psychologists can help them find constructive ways of managing their emotions.
You do yourself a disservice when you just arbitrarily decide that your perspective is “right.” information isn’t right or wrong, there are degrees of accuracy. It’s important to just try to learn more accurate information.
The line here is always arbitrarily set, so you’d want to look up what it is at your specific company. At what point does your personal commute to work end and your work begins? Does it start once you sit in your chair? Step into your office? Walk through the door? How about once you park your car? If you’re available by phone, you can start working your day while in transit. Working from home blurs that distinction further. It’s all arbitrary and usually outlined as a company policy.
For example, my last company’s policy was “be onsite to punch in at a terminal by XX.” The previous company’s were basically “who gives a shit, we’re never gonna check. If not being present on time causes any problems, it’s on you to fix them. Be an adult.”
