I aspire to one day be good enough to have imposter syndrome.
Don’t gaslight my imposter syndrome!
Bossman: “Hey jubilationtcornpone. We’ve got [XYZ] issue in production. You got any idea how to fix it?”
Me: “Hmmm… Yeah, we could probably [insert good and fairly well thought out fix here]. I bet that would work.”
Bossman: “Cool. Let’s do that.”
Three hours later…
JT Cornpone’s shoulder devil: “Hey buddy! You remember that suggestion you made to your boss? Boy that was pretty fuckin laughable. I can’t wait to see the look on your face when it completely fails and you get fired out of a canon. It’s gonna be legendary!”
Me: 😰
As a linguistically conservative person, I’d like to propose we spell it “Impostor Syndrome”.
Just curious… what’s the opposite of imposter syndrome?
God complex?
