So much so that I have no energy to do anything but work and sleep, preparing for interviews is out of the question as I do not have the mental bandwidth to put in a 12 hour day and then come back to study.

What is the best way to either get laid off or force the company into giving me some kind of paid time off so I can figure out what to do next?

I’ve heard that getting fired for performance is not ideal because it may effect future employment opportunities if they find out so the advice I’ve been given of just becoming incompetent and not doing my work for long enough doesn’t seem to be the best way.

I will not be able to get paid time off approved because we are so far behind schedule at said company I work at currently.

Please help me…","time":1749087041,"title":"Ask HN: Best way to get laid off","type":"story"}],[44104841,{"by":"chihyeon92","descendants":5,"id":44104841,"kids":[44105071,44110023,44106080,44130602,44104860],"score":3,"text":"$18","time":1748332629,"title":"Is Saying \"I'm Leaving to Do What I Love\" a Good Reason to Quit?","type":"story"}],[42282717,{"by":"Kinrany","descendants":149,"id":42282717,"kids":[42283973,42284234,42283830,42283606,42285124,42284849,42284102,42283500,42283620,42285127,42284298,42284550,42284954,42284000,42283595,42285933,42283786,42285025,42283635,42285096,42286100,42284884,42285290,42286492,42284027,42284897,42284103,42284185,42288950,42291062,42286170,42284824,42283351],"score":245,"time":1732987167,"title":"You must read at least one book to ride","type":"story","url":"https://ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/you-must-read-at-least-one-book-to-ride/"}],[42234237,{"by":"tosh","descendants":61,"id":42234237,"kids":[42236744,42235017,42236232,42236475,42237790,42238121,42237377,42235814,42238139,42235685,42236595,42237622,42236590,42237067,42237579,42236583,42235160,42237402,42238262],"score":22,"time":1732522531,"title":"Apple iMac M4 review: who is this for, exactly?","type":"story","url":"https://www.theverge.com/24303351/apple-imac-m4-review-expensive-beautiful-niche"}],[41543666,{"by":"askHN2024","descendants":327,"id":41543666,"kids":[41555366,41551621,41552844,41550278,41551857,41550001,41556529,41545082,41551761,41552982,41550367,41544737,41554307,41550729,41547934,41548690,41553318,41550559,41550246,41544705,41550688,41544183,41545121,41551331,41553202,41551446,41547276,41562290,41550790,41552529,41551585,41545416,41554672,41553114,41547834,41553250,41551302,41557181,41562027,41556577,41552651,41554235,41544908,41565749,41544375,41554048,41545392,41550443,41550078,41588520,41547359,41555603,41554163,41553043,41555249,41550749,41545963,41555909,41554441,41560937,41555870,41554382,41613126,41554417,41591504,41576116,41554406,41554733,41551450,41552245,41557427,41554397,41550960,41551136,41554510,41558926,41571817,41553795,41551882,41547085,41551623,41551940,41559822,41550241,41552097,41552247,41560609,41554908,41556326,41553261,41546880,41553560,41556574,41555435,41544683,41555651,41544692,41555698,41546757,41558294,41557232,41554933,41562398,41544967,41554161,41552461,41551920,41546415,41550299,41558715,41546645,41556343,41553803,41550223,41555584,41549238,41556619,41554158,41553760,41549916,41543818,41553743,41560518,41552321,41552876,41547169,41550620,41552092,41551549,41550324,41551534,41592878,41560098,41551736,41556148,41552457,41555283,41556569,41554442,41554159,41558846,41550063,41554083,41544640,41613770,41545661,41551580,41559216,41551779],"score":375,"text":"For various life reasons, I developed depression, and I am autistic and have ADHD (diagnosed, treated).

The point of this Ask HN isn’t to start a pity party, but I am just getting some data on how others like me are doing.

I have an ACE score of 6. Currently, I look accomplished to people, but I don’t feel accomplished. My estimated networth is maybe 300K or more with home equity. My biggest concern with my quality of life is I don’t feel safe (don’t ask).

So what’s your ACE score, and how satisfied are you with your life?
