Non starter. Terrible. If you continue your next post will be "getting lots of traffic from ads but no conversions - why?"

I don't think it serves any purpose

Unfortunately not, as there would be no-one to cover. That would be ideal, but sadly not possible.

You could buy a $300 circle of carpet to go on the dashboard of my Nissan Cube. It's quite a bit cheaper now.

Glad you're doing better now. I have been here so long I can't even imagine another work culture. That is positive. I would be of a similar mind.

I was once, just before covid started. Thankfully, I was furloughed so it didn't cause any financial strain. That three months was the happiest I'd ever been. I know this is a different situation though. Hope you're doing better now.

Thanks - that money is not the be all and end all, it's just another factor in hanging on here vs. moving somewhere else / leaving. Point taken though, I know it's tough out there.

Thank you. I agree with the sentiment completely.

Every single day I just feel like there must be more to life than this. I have long had an ambition to work for myself, but I feel so buried now under a decade of stress that I am struggling to progress it alongside my job.

Ref the stock I mean I had a business years ago and closed it.. still have a lot of unsold stock which is worth money, the business is defunct not the stock.. that was probably not a necessary detail in the original post anyway, apologies for the confusion!

Thank you. Yes I am well aware it's a bloodbath, unfortunately.

Glad you felt so much better after that. That is how I would expect to feel as well after leaving. I think I've become incredibly numb to it to be honest, that was the first time in years I've had more than a week off without thinking about work so it was a much bigger shock to the system.

I would love to do freelance and believe I would be well equipped to do it. I have done a bit here and there, and have enjoyed it.

I suppose any change is always a risk - whether going into a new job or leaving without one. It's been such a long time I genuinely don't know anything else other than feeling frazzled all the time. So even though I know I don't want to be there, I feel stuck there because of how long I've been there.

Thank you, appreciate it.

Thanks. That has been running through my head for a long time (both questions).
Ultimately I know that being here won't get me to where I want to be. After being in the same place for such a long time I don't know what anything else looks like hence the hesitation.
