been here a month this Friday and Im already sick of it. extremely tedious and menial shit. just staring at fucking excel spreadsheets all day for a bunch of mind numbing bullshit. i honestly have no idea how people do this for years of their lives.

i should have just gone to trade school instead of taking this job.

You could think of it that way. I choose to think that my boring ass tedious job is just what I need to toil away at so I can fund my own personal lifestyle and enjoyment. I decided to give up on career fulfillment and understand my job is just a means to my ends. It makes it less difficult to get through a day lol

So not trying to dig at any wounds or anything, but I would seriously consider how much you're making vs your overall happiness. Don't stay at a job you're miserable at. I did that for three years and immediately ended up in a better place after the fact.

Could be worse. Be thankful you dont have to deal with customers belittling you all day and management telling you to take it up the ass from them.

Could be even worse. Maybe you don't have a job and trying to get one suitable is like banging your head against a brick wall.

Hopefully you start to like it or find something better. I'm overwhelmed by my new (2nd) job but I am liking it

I got 2 degrees before I figured out college wasn't going to change the fact that I wanted to be a truck driver since I was a kid. My parents were always uptown Charlotte and kinda snobby so you can imagine they didn't support that. University probably cost over 100k. It only costed me $3800 to attend a good driving school.

Sure I have things to fall back on, but somewhere that kid always knew me better than my brain ever could think through it. I knew it the minute I saw Over The Top as a kid.

Just found out my sister in law that works in HR makes 150k a year. I knew her and my brother in law made 6 figures but I didn't realize they were comfortably over 6 figures. They're nice people and I'm happy for them but it also made me feel a little deflated with my recent salary increase. I live comfortably but damn. And yeah, my job sucks too

I definitely think my brain is being rotted by sitting alone staring at a computer screen all day for work, but since most other jobs don't pay a living wage nowadays I guess it is what it is
