I am not in a comfortable situation in mine. It is a bit toxic tbh. The rest of it seems normal - so many meetings, everyone fumbling around trying to meet the goals that shift around. I do like the parts where I get to write code though:-).

Nobody enjoys 100% of every day and every activity. But do you enjoy your job... mostly?

I mean, it's a job so no, but it's the best I've ever had. Pay is bad, but i come in, do what i need to do and leave. Occasionally i get paid to hang around or go shopping while i wait for deliveries, but i mostly get off early (to the detriment of my paycheck). I'm definitely going to have to get another job eventually, but I'll hold on to this one as long as i can make it work.

I feel this so hard. It's hard to put a price on freedom but then yeah groceries and rent have a way of doing exactly that:-|. I'm glad you are okay for now.
