Almost every single time I hear someone saying this, it's impostor syndrome talking.

Making you feel important is the lie...

They will replace you in a heartbeat if you start having requirements

When I train somebody new and I have to remember the actual rules and SOPs instead of all the ad hoc ones I made up.

Same, girlie

Just answer everything with, “How about we- AHHHH SNAKES!!!” And this will get you out of trouble.

Yep.

I’m now old enough that I’ve been here longer than the really eager and overachieving youths who did the management pipeline.

I have become a fixture, my name is now a role.

Oh this is very much me. People seem to expect me to know things, and I keep just kind of making it up as I go along, and no one seems to have caught on yet that I'm usually just papering over bullshit with a couple of graphs and a pretty slideshow

Sometimes I say things that people misinterpret as me knowing very much. It's always so damn frustrating.

Time to ask for a raise.

You just have to know more than your fellow employees who know less than nothing.

This picture is of Elizabeth Homes. "In 2018, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charged Theranos, Holmes, and former Theranos chief operating officer (COO) Ramesh "Sunny" Balwani with raising $700 million from investors through a fraud involving false or exaggerated claims about the accuracy of the company's blood-testing technology; Holmes settled the charges by paying a $500,000 no admit no deny (NAND) fine, returning 18.9 million shares to the company, relinquishing her voting control of Theranos, and accepting a ten-year ban from serving as an officer or director of a public company." There was no "Accidentally", it was intentional to get money they didn't deserve.

But to those of you who think it's a relatable meme about imposter syndrome using a random image of an average person in an office environment... yeah the world feels complicated. If you've been completely honest to others though, your very presence in that role is the only proof you need to show you actually do know enough.

Relatable
