Take This Job and Love It
- It embarrasses you to tell people what you do. If it makes you cringe, then you hoped for better. Or at least different. Take that seriously.
- You've been at the job for over a year and you still feel like a total fraud. If the job isn't new, and you still feel like you are faking it nearly all the time, well then, maybe you are.
- You connect with no one. Assuming that you have demonstrated a capacity to form friendships, if you have made no pleasant social connections in the workplace in what you consider to be a reasonable period of time, then you are probably with the wrong group of people.
- You are overwhelmed with rage or anxiety on a daily basis. Daily outbursts or inner explosions are a sign that something is wrong—maybe the job itself?
- The pay is lousy and you need the money. Though you need a wage to live, this is not the job for you.
