How do you deal with boring jobs and poor coworkers? Posted: 04 Nov 2019 05:37 PM PST Im right at that tipping point. Net worth in the 200-300k range, just got that six figure job I was always dreaming about. Investments, emergency fund, primary home, etc all set up right where they should be by the guidance of this sub. I'm 29 and doing well! But goodness do I hate going in every day. 1 hour commute each way in traffic, coworkers at the new job are aweful and don't understand what they are doing. My tasking is extremely unfulfilling, for example I was given five days to prep for a 15 minute meeting with some guy down the hall. And there's almost no work. Gmail is blocked, my boss hates seeing people on phones, and doesn't allow telework or even the 9/80 schedule all other departments have. So I literally drive two hours a day to sit in a cube and stare at a wall for 8 hours. Its Office Space on steroids. So basically, I'm being overpaid and can hit FI really quick while doing nothing but watch my youth slip away. What would you do? How do you get through that hump of watching the returns pile but FI still seems so far away? [link] [comments] |
