“Proof” of illness

My former boss accused me of lying about being sick when using sick time. I told her I have chronic GI issues among other things and she told me to my face that she didn't believe me and that they might ask for proof of illness. Cue malicious compliance. Every time I threw up at the office (which was every few weeks because GI issues) I would bring her the trash bag that had my vomit in it and ask if she wanted to see it to verify that I was actually sick. After the third time she flipped out and told me to just go home. Didn't have a problem with me calling out after that.

Doing the bare minimum

Does anyone else do the bare minimum even as they stack more and more work on? There are 4 people on my team who are all leaving by the end of April and they have told me that they are going to start expecting more out of me and all I can think is to continue to do the bare minimum or otherwise I’ll be doing 60-70 hours weeks trying to pick up the work of those who have left.

Use all my energy at work so no energy for my hobbies

Seriously, so much time and energy is spent on something I don't give a shit about and then I have no energy for my stuff. By the time I get home I can barely focus on anything so I just consume entertainment, really just on autopilot, and then get ready for bed
