Hace unos días este post de me pareció bastante interesante y me dejó un poco reflexiva respecto a un tema del que les he comentado muy poco, de hecho, creo que solo las personas realmente cercanas a mi saben de esto. Trabajo con redes sociales desde hace más de 10 años, pero incluso mucho antes ya estaba sumergida en este mundo. Recuerdo que a mis 7 u 8 años, por allá, a inicios de los 2000, mi tía me abrió mi primer correo electrónico (hotmail) para que tanto mis hermanos como yo aprendiéramos a utilizar Messenger, de igual manera, para esa época era lo que había, no existía todo un catálogo de redes sociales como existe hoy en día. Utilizábamos Messenger para comunicarnos, pero no era algo del día a día ya que no contábamos con internet en casa, era algo esporádico, una actividad recreativa que hacíamos junto a nuestra tía cuando nos llevaba de paseo al cyber café.
A few days ago this post by
struck me as quite interesting and left me a bit reflective about a topic I have told you very little about, in fact, I think only people really close to me know about it. I have been working with social networks for more than 10 years, but even before that I was already immersed in this world. I remember when I was 7 or 8 years old, back in the early 2000's, my aunt opened my first email (hotmail) so that both my brothers and I could learn to use Messenger, at that time it was what we had, there wasn't a whole catalog of social networks as there is today. We used Messenger to communicate, but it was not a daily thing since we did not have internet at home, it was something sporadic, a recreational activity that we did with our aunt when she took us to the cyber cafe.
around my 9 years old I fell in love with virtual worlds and in my pre-adolescence was born the wave of social networks that evolved to where we are today. At that time there was no Instagram or Facebook, but there were many others like MySpace and Hi5, which were really fun back then, although today with so many innovations they would surely seem pretty boring 😂 The truth is that I have spent most of my life surfing social networks. I consider that I am a person who values human interaction in real life, I like to go out, enjoy with friends and meet new people, but my work is focused on virtuality. My day starts around 6am and ends at 10pm, sometimes a little later, and I could say that 85% of a normal day in my life is dedicated to social networks. I enjoy my work a lot, but I have to confess that outside of work I don't enjoy it as much, to the point that I don't like to socialize in WhatsApp, telegram or discord groups, I don't answer messages that are personal on time and many times they are forgotten. People who know me know this and it has become an inside joke, I am “the friend who never responds”, despite spending 85% of my days on social networks.
Es un fenómeno extraño, de seguro tendrá alguna explicación. Puedo pasar 3 horas en una reunión on line conversando sobre un tema laboral y planificando cosas pendientes, pero detesto las llamadas personales, las evito, les huyo, la mayoría de mis amigos y familiares lo saben aunque ciertamente los menos comprensivos se han llegado a molestar pensando que no es una buena actitud, pero la realidad es que siento que he llegado al punto en el que simplemente no me gusta, me hace sentir incómoda. Existen dos extremos, aquellos que se pasan todo el día socializando en grupos de telegram y yo que jamás escribo, aunque a veces los leo 😂😂😂
It's a strange phenomenon, I'm sure it has some explanation. I can spend 3 hours in an online meeting talking about a work topic and planning pending things, but I hate personal calls, I avoid them, I run away from them, most of my friends and family know it although certainly the less understanding ones have become annoyed thinking that it is not a good attitude but, the reality is that I feel that I have reached the point where I just don't like it, it makes me feel uncomfortable. There are two extremes, those who spend all day socializing in telegram groups and me who never write, although sometimes I do read them 😂😂😂😂
Me encanta mi trabajo, de eso no tengo dudas, pero creo que el hecho de no poder desaparecer de las redes sociales me ha creado esta especie de resistencia a ellas y el tiempo que tengo fuera de lo laboral prefiero hacerlo alejada de las redes sociales, lo cual es irónico tomando en cuenta que vivo tomando fotos, grabando videos y creando contenido. Creo que por eso disfruto tanto twitter, porque puedo postear lo que pasa por mi cabeza sin tanto esfuerzo y sin necesidad de socializar jajaja. Me encantaría saber que opinan de esto, o si alguno de ustedes siente lo mismo. Con muchísimo gusto me iría unos meses a una isla sin cobertura, si me pagaran un sueldo, claro 😂😂 creo que sería la única manera de alejarme de las redes sociales, tomando en cuenta que es mi trabajo, mi vida y algo que realmente se me da bien, es una especie de relación amor-odio. Leo sus opiniones en los comentarios, abrazo virtual para todos ❤️
I love my job, of that I have no doubt, but I think the fact that I can't disappear from social networks has created this kind of resistance to them and the time I have outside of work I prefer to do it away from social networks, which is ironic taking into account that I live taking pictures, recording videos and creating content. I think that's why I enjoy twitter so much, because I can post what's going on in my head without so much effort and without the need to socialize hahaha. I would love to know what you guys think about this, or if any of you feel the same, I would gladly go for a few months to an island without coverage, if they paid me a salary, of course 😂😂 I think it would be the only way to get away from social networks, taking into account that it's my job, my life and something that I'm really good at, I think it's kind of a love-hate relationship. I read your opinions in the comments, virtual hug to all ❤️
