I think this is not OT at all. This is the answer to most job related should-i-stay-or-should-i-go or what-should-i-do questions. It. Is. A. Job. If you can't accept that you're in a job and the feeling of entitlement shines thru, that would just be whining in my book. And yes, HN, lots of that in here. |

I recently changed career to become whatever I found honest just in case it would make my life different.
Well, being a human beings seems to come with a handicap we almost all have moral compass. And most of my job in IT have been in the dark side of my compass recently.
Right now, I maybe risking my body moving heavy loads with poor equipment and security, commercial making occasional mistakes forces us to do 12h continuous loading of trucks else the company bankrupts and none of us are paid BUT from my perspective it is a great improvement.
Customers are sometimes saying thanks. Coworkers are sometimes saying thanks, and boss too. We are working as a team and when everybody does his/her job correctly we have satisfactions.
A satisfaction I was missing.
And when the day is over, the job is not in my head anymore.
I can once again live a normal life, we don't scam customers, we don't break their goods, we are the most honest we can giving the stupidity of some regulations and of some dishonest customers.
And fuck, being able to feel proud again is worthy the quasi state of misery I live in.
Sometimes, money does not matter as much as feeling you are not wasting your life doing something that makes you something you will come to despise.
Feeling an honest human again worth every single $ and all my savings I lost in the conversion.
