I'm in the same boat too. Honestly I don't think this will get better. The grind never stops. I am thinking to consider moving to jobs which are at least interesting to me since I'm going to spend 70%(might be more if math done properly) of my rest of my life working, might as well it be interesting or fun to me. Idk if I can pull it off.

I feel you. I never thought I'd get out of retail management and landed a sweet operations job that pays well. The downside is it's a small company so I do everything. I'm good at it and it's stimulating, but I'm accountable for so many things and people that it's been really wearing me down for the last few years, I'm at 11/10 effort almost every day.

I could find something else but it probably won't pay as well, and likely wouldn't be any better for my health. Doesn't hurt to look though, right?

I just want to contribute and do good work and enjoy my life.
