New grad navigating isolation at work

I’m a new grad and one of very few POC at my company. I’ve experienced microaggressions from my onsite team, I don’t feel comfortable with them due to this (I work with ppl overseas tho so I don’t work directly with them) so I’ve kept my distance, focused on my work, and built connections elsewhere in the company instead.

Now people are telling my manager they never see me and I’ve been confronted about it, even though I show up to the office on my hybrid schedule and I’m doing my job well.

It’s not part of my job description to socialize with specific people. How do I navigate pushback about visibility when the environment is part of why I distanced myself?

Does tutoring help?

Hi everyone!!

I originally had my test scheduled for 5/22 but I’m gonna be pushing it back to 5/30. I got a 504 on my last FL 2 weeks ago (125/127/125/127). I’m hoping to get at least a 510.

I’m wondering if tutoring helps. I have 16 sessions scheduled for this week alone drilling on all my weak points.

Has there been any success stories and any advice on how I should utilize tutoring?

Hi kiddos,

I remember being a neurotic sophomore anxiously waiting to escape my college and transfer on this subreddit. I’m here to share some words of love and advice for anyone who didn’t get into their top schools! It isn’t too late you’re all hopefully going to be fine <3

I ended up transferring to a pretty good school, went through some grief, failed a semester and went back to my original school.

There I graduated with a 3.95 gpa summa cum laude, 4 research projects, and a certificate in baddiology (hehe). Now i’m going to harvard for graduate school!!

This is hope to you all. If you’re having a hard semester or didn’t get into any of your transfer schools you wanted don’t worry. You’re all highly ambitious people who want what’s best for your education and graduate school is still there waiting for you!

My tips to anyone who didn’t get into where they want: continue to excel at where you are, try to graduate early, do internships / research out of state at prestigious institutions, and have fun💗💗

OMGGGG i’m so glad I got housing, I literally had to fight an entire war on that website this morning. I opened one unit, gone, another, gone. I wanted to die but in the end I won and i’m not gonna sleep on the library floor between the stacks (that was my literal emergency plan)😎

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR!
