Please forgive me because after a really shitty day at work I'm going to be direct and say "it's not you." I don't know you or your work situation, but I have worked with so many people that felt this way. I feel this way sometimes too. I think a lot of people on Lemmy will say they feel this way at times. Hell I bet your coworkers feel this sometimes too.
Work sucks. It sucks more than ever too. Most companies are running on skeleton crews. Someone leaves, takes a sick day, or takes PTO, and the whole thing falls apart. You're still expected to somehow optimize through all of this instead of the company hiring additional people.
Fuck that. You're awesome because you show up and do your job through all the bullshit. I have worked with people that don't always put up the best "metrics", or whatever bullshit measurement your middle manager uses to make themselves look good, but those folks brought other soft skills to the team that made the day better.
You're human. Vent. Rant. Be upset. Feel your feelings. We all know the current situation sucks and no one can blame you for needing to get it off your chest. More people need to speak up and point out how shitty it is because it's just getting worse.
Anyway, if you want someone to vent with then DM me and we can complain together, maybe start a riot or something.
