Not easy being us, wage cucks...
I agree, but I'm feeling really disconnected from the job. I understand that the reason why a job pays you money is because it is unpleasant, hence you are are compensated for it. But I've really lost all interest in this job. My was the only one in my team based in my own country, my manager and rest of the team are based in the same country. So the lack of geographical proximity does not help with feeling disconnected from my colleagues. Coupled with COVID slowing down travel (previously a sizable part of my job) and having my manager and colleagues really far away has me drifting like a balloon in a convention center.
I'm really enjoying running my skateshop online but the margins are decent to thin even without the overhead of a shop front and operating it entirely out of my apartment. I've ran my own business before (office, sales people, admin staff, distributors, post-sales service) to know how stressful and tough that route can be. Right now business is decent, I move 100-200 worth of product a day but that's because kids are finishing up their exams and the end of year holidays are approaching. Come January when school picks up again I dont' want to be stuck with mountains of inventory I can't clear in time.
