EUGENE, OR—Arriving back at work after a two-week winter vacation, local marketing assistant Matthew Bueso told reporters Monday he was happy to return to the office with a fresh and rejuvenated loathing for his job. “It’s always nice to get away for a few weeks, clear my head, and come back invigorated with a newfound disgust for my place of employment and the various responsibilities of my thoroughly depressing job,” said Bueso, 38, noting that his time away had inspired him to complete mind-numbing administrative tasks, engage in idle discussions with his aggravating coworkers, and listen to bullshit inspirational speeches from his boss with a rekindled sense of anger and despair. “I’m rested, my batteries are recharged, and I’m ready to despise my entire professional life more intensely than ever before!” At press time, a revitalized Bueso was furiously balling his fists at the sound of a nearby coworker’s loud typing.

I am convinced that I’m just hardwired to dread going to work. Doesn’t matter how good the job is.
Unless it’s something I really enjoy doing. But if I’m doing something that I enjoy doing, for work, then it will ruin that thing for me. So it’s only a matter of time in that case.
if you’re like me you just can’t tolerate the idea of bullshit work and being exploited, if you can find a government job that might work

Yeah I’m in the same boat, but wow do I still get a sizeable amount of dread going back to work when I’m getting burnt out on a specific task.
Like I am lucky to find myself working in the public sector and having a direct impact on the public, and I love it! But my goodness, do I dread days where its back to the same task I’ve been doing for the last 2 weeks, without much change.
Maybe the issue with that is the way I manage my time tho and am constantly forgetting to take regular vacation.
I get paid enough I’d rather show up and bitch than quit.
