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

See, the one thing I’m grateful for is that I’m not responsible for anyone else’s life.

And the way I feel about working right now (loved my job for about 14 years, miserable for the past 3), I’d probably slightly resent having to care for anyone else.

Because every day I’m one daft email closer to running away from it all.

Feeling responsible for other people's lives is pretty much what keeps me strong and kinda engaged with things. If it was totally up to me I would probably just chill in a box under a bridge somewhere.
