Depends on the job. I've had some jobs where I always felt like a slave and lost the will to live. And finally after years of shit jobs after shit jobs, I got this current job. It is a drop from heavens and I'll never let it go until I retire.

Congrats, that’s encouraging to hear!

Thank you. It's been a brutal 14 years in the US, but I have finally made it to the finish line.

You can't just say that without telling us what it is

Anything you like. Shovel shit, make excel sheets, jerk off horses, kill people. Doesn't matter. Whatever floods dopamine into your head while lowering cortisol. Hopefully it's not that latter.

I'm so sorry, I don't know why I didn't say it. lmao I'm a programmer and I work from home amongst my wife and kids <3. I have had shit jobs the entire 14 years I've been in the US until 2021 where I got this job.
