I sometimes feel guilty for hating my job when many can’t find one or are losing theirs…
In all honesty I never enjoyed my job, I never once woke up feeling excited to go to work even when I moved to a different company. The stress and working full-time are the main factor in all of this.
Yet with this, I feel incredibly guilting of feeling this way whenever I hear people struggle to find a job out there after sending endless applications for months, or people who do have jobs but find themselves being told the company will be closing down or laying off employees and now will face the same endless cycle of applying and getting rejected, or be forced to work some shitty job just so they can support themselves.
I don’t really know, but it’s like things have taken such a wrong turn that we’re all just here living in fear, not knowing when we’ll be next.
So yeah, I just feel bad that me not liking my job, advocating for better work boundaries, wanting better work life balance, supporting shorter work weeks when others have it worse makes me seem ungrateful. source
