    I’ve tried really hard to get a job that requires as little from me as possible and still pays the bills.

    Life is misery, every week I start knowing I will not be allowed enough freedom to ever stop being a wage slave.

    I work to stay alive, and have no chance to plan for the future.

    I have nothing to live for besides the people I care about, and my work makes it so I have to spend almost all my time away from them or too tired to interact.

    Our world is dying and I can’t even be upset about it anymore, becuse whatever happens will be more fulfilling than this

      And does it make you a better project manager?

      I’m not sure how to phrase this without sounding like a condescending jerk, but that’s not my intention.

      The thing is, a job that requires as little from you as possible while still paying the bills is guaranteed to be unfulfilling.
