I think I need advice or lpt on how to stop dreading work daily. I've been looking for other jobs but they don't pay as much and I can't financially afford a pay cut so I'm kind of stuck here for now.
I tried figuring out what causes the dread and I can't pinpoint it exactly because it's an accumulation of various things such as: there's a lack of comadrie and socialization (we do remote work and don't do the same projects as each other anymore so there's no real reason to talk to each other), annoying and difficult coworkers, meetings only consist of sales talks and Financials (most employees aren't involved in sales and financial performance so it makes no sense to talk to us about it constantly), I don't enjoy the work we do (the type if service has changed since covid) and the company is all about performance and efficiency. Employees aren't responsible for getting new clients but managers are and right now is a slow period but executives keep harping on managers about the downtime and employees are worried they'll wanna lay people off.
Those are some of the reasons and I guess what it comes down to is there is nothing to look forward to at work. What they call fun perks isn't really fun. While there's some good things about the job most of the stuff that I looked forward to they no longer offer.
But like I said I'm stuck here for now but I dread work and i hate that I dread work.
