Oh, you hate your job? There's a support group for that. It's called everybody and they meet at the bar.

Most work is unfulfilling. You're in a unique position just to have the possibility that it might not be. You can find jobs that are rewarding, but as a rule of thumb the worst place to look for them is in places that advertise themselves as important and rewarding (and be conned for a second that this doesn't include Musk's companies).

It's more attainable to find reward in the rest of your life, and set your sights on finding a job that doesn't pull on your soul in a way that negatively impacts your private life.

Yeah, but lately it has been easier for me to find remote work without degree at all and non-us (way less chances) earning a f lot, than to develop a life worth living. That's why I think I am trying to just find a meaningful work. Because thought work hasn't been easy, I am in a very good position can't complain, but my life sucks. It's just plain boring.
