One of the worst things that happened to me in my last job is that I became important in the mid-level at work. Suddenly, I was expected to be at work earlier, be ready to rock at 8am, knocking meetings out and making decisions. I ran on fumes for years.

A few times, when critical bad shit happened after 5pm and I had to stay at work until midnight, I felt like I was the competent and motivated person that got me into that position to begin with. There was no way my bosses were going to let me saunter into the office at 1pm, after all the client meetings had already wrapped up... I definitely tried to convince them though lol
