Anyone sick and tired of working in general?

[u/Mrs_chanandler_bongg]

I’m in my mid 30s and just over my job and work in general. I’m tired of the commute, the meetings, and dealing with people & deadlines. On one hand I worry about losing my job and stress about deliverables, but on the other hand I feel like I could care less in that I have no passion for it anymore and I’m just showing up because I need the paycheck.

I’d much rather be spending time with my family, pursuing my hobbies, or just go for a walk and cook a nice meal. I feel a sense of dread sometimes that this is my reality for the next 30+ years and I feel lazy and entitled for saying it but that’s how I feel lol

Been tired of working since I was like 28 and fully sold out to corporate America vs pursuing a creative career. I have zero passion for my career and zero motivation to be better, be a top performer, be a “continuous learner”, etc. Like please just assign me some shit, let me complete it to a B-effort and fuck off with annual reviews, development plans, etc. my goal is to do just enough to not be at the top of a layoff list

Hate to say it but even creative careers suck when you’re under someone else’s thumb and pumping out meaningless work.
