Hiya! I'm a fellow public servant in SG as well. Ironically speaking, the "high potential" comment from management always meant additional workload being thrown into our direction, which result more than what we can chew. I was recently told this as well, being into appraisal and stuff... It's suffocating and drains the life out of me.

I hope you are able to eventually sort things out! There is no further advise I can potentially give as we deal with issues differently. You set your own pace alright? A part of me is genuinely sad that you won't be continuing the fic, but you know what; your health precedes everything else.

wa another singapore resident! hahahha. yeah actually that’s the part that sucks. that people who have potential are then punished by being given more and more work because that’s what it’s supposed to be like evidently. makes you wonder why anyone would want to climb that high. my bosses all work like they have no life and it’s awful. appraisal is another one—how do i have time to sit down and consolidate my achievements if i can’t even finish my work within the usual 9to630 lol.

i may continue some of my allechant fics in the future because i think it is possible to transfer them over to another account (i think…) but only after i settle into my new account first! i don’t want to do anything too early and have it lead to expectations.
