View submission: Being grateful for your job
There’s definitely all different pros and cons to any job, and agree to focus on the positives if that’s what is in your control. Even the positives lose their appeal and novelty over time
I’m generally not super thrilled with my current job but I was SO excited when I just started. Now I’m more jaded, less motivated, and realized I don’t actually have to work very hard. I end up being restless most of the day, not feeling very fulfilled, and not sleeping very well.
I used to work at a much worse job with a toxic boss, for a quarter of the pay and x2 the hours. There were days where I would cry on my way to work.. but it was the best sleep I’ve ever had in my life because my daily escape.
I’d say my bar has been raised considerably, but I still need to remind myself to be grateful every day!
There's nothing here!
