Had enough really. This world is bad enough, I hated working enough. When someone has a meltdown at you and tells you you're a piece of shit at your job, simply for being honest about timescales and practical obstacles. Sorry I'm not a fucking magician or miracle worker. It seems that's the only thing good enough for people these days. Be better off off this fucking doomed planet.

Once again the fact I wasted everything with my wasteful cowardice while I still could be at least partially alive.
At the "now" that tunnels me to interact with what I see around me, if I have to say I even see it, I don't want to try "living" now that it's too late and I'm irreversibly dead. Because of my cowardice and overwhelmingly stupid choices

Exactly as seabird says. I don't blame you one bit if you're stuck, but if you decide you want to quit or take a *long* vacation, I for one support you 100%. I am wasted now largely in part because I refuse to draw the line and quit a toxic job (until it's too late for me to get my life for myself when I at last do so). Don't be afraid to be above me in this way.

Thanks @seabird
Just first day back in the office as well (was WFH yesterday). It's not exactly how you want to start a new year. I won't do anything, I just feel deflated and defeated at the moment. Yeah I know that. Could have just done without it right now. Am sure I'll forget about it by next week ❤️

IDK if this helps, but mgt expectations on IT staff to come up with deliverables at the drop of a hat are ridiculous. A project manager with several years of experience will say a given development project will be about 12 months, given the resources available. If he/she is lucky, the counteroffer will be, "you have 6 months." More likely, 3. There are inviolable laws of the universe re: project mgt that most "manager types," are willfully ignorant of:
- You want something that is inexpensive, delivered quickly, and high quality. Choose 2
- Garbage in --> garbage out
- You cannot have a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant (okay that one's sexist - I get that, but it's also the way most engineering types quote it)
It is tough dealing with people who have no clue, but have the influence. It is a bad lot for the bulk of people that actually live in the real world and work in the real world where results do require skills, effort and time. I feel for you and others over that simpleton nonsense so many in business are expert at.
Wrestling with turning down two opportunities to go back to work again. On one hand one job would be my ideal job but they don't want a short timer. The other job is okay but a longer commute and i only have to work a year.
I am not adapting to retirement but not sure I want a full time job. Maybe I should turn both jobs down actually they are an invitation to interview both places and figure out how to retire. I was busy this week but the next 5 days I have no commitments. And that scares me.

hugs if they help @cinnnamonflakez
I feel kind of okay for the moment. I've started fishing around for freelancing opportunities. I'm eating better and I'm tracking my time at a very high level. I'm also very, very, sad (nauseated really) about a recent current event.
I have been avoiding the news for the most part, but every so often I check the headlines to see if there's anything I should be writing state or federal level legislators about. Unfortunately, it seems like it just gets worse every time I pop my head up from under my rock.

My butt is dragging today, even more than usual. I know what I should be doing, but I am sleepy af and having a heck of a time getting going. I have been up an hour and have made coffee but not consumed it yet. I have a therapy appointment in an hour and a half, and I hardly ate yesterday so I’m going to need a sturdy breakfast to even be able to drive the 35 minutes there and back.
It feels like my muscles are just done. If you’ve ever done a workout and as you are changing in the locker room, your arms or whatever body parts were the focus feel like rubber, it’s that feeling, only in my brain.
