This has happened to a lot of people and I am wondering what that's about. It's happened to me also. I realized my job is useless and the primary benefit goes to the sales guy who sells my services. Did the pandemic cause this? If so, how?
- omgwtfbbq 6y agoNot going into the office daily shatters the illusion that you are doing something important. When you are in the office everyone looks busy and self important.
- mimixco 6y agoThe pandemic caused this realization for a lot of people because much of what really matters in life was taken away: friends, family, food, health, travel, education, recreation. In contrast with these things, nearly all work seems pointless and unfulfilling. If there is a bright spot to the pandemic, perhaps it is that, having had these realizations, more people will be inclined to create work scenarios that work for them... ala the classic movie 9 to 5.
