I went from freelance to full time permanent employment at age 47.
Mortgage must be paid.
Thus not feeling free = prisoner of this circumstance, being told what to do.
What’s the point of living just to pay a mortgage, hating the workplace j hating my life hoping for a distant free future?
Or is my negativity just typical of Autism spectrum disorder?
I got diagnosed in 2018.
I hated my previous job with a passion but needed money so couldn’t quit. Working the more unsociable hours in retail (before 24hr opening thankfully!) Being on the student transfer scheme I got some crap shifts dumped on me and the people were either power trip managers or spent the whole time moaning instead of being productive. I genuinely enjoy my current job (mostly!) which helps make it more bearable and it seems to have become a special interest early on which helps, there’s always something new to learn in medical technology. Managed to stick at it for 13 years now!
That's interesting, maybe getting a job related to a special interest is the answer
