I am withholding my human capital at the moment, because the job that I worked hard for, worked well at, and enjoyed, was taken from me during the lockdowns of 2020-2021.
When I open Zoom and see shitty pixelated faces in bedrooms, I think - you fucked up the job I used to enjoy. I can't reintegrate into the workforce as a result.
This isn't a popular viewpoint here because most people here are on the other side of thinking WFH is the best thing since sliced bread. I imagine they see this as a personal attack or threat or something.
It just doesn't work for me, that's all. However well it works for you.
So I'm here, twiddling my thumbs and hoping that my investments are enough until I can find peace with this. I still have no idea what I'm going to do, I still can't accept that my career is gone.
