I started a new job last month. I'm about to get my first pay raise and with that I'll be making twice as much as I was making just a couple months ago at my last job. Most seem happy for me cause I'm slightly less depressed coming home from this job and am making a good amount of money. However I still just hate being here cause work is soul crushing. Nothing about working anywhere feels worth it for any amount of money. It just sucks away all the time and energy I'd be much better off spending doing literally anything else.

Worth depends on the target you want to achieve. It’s part of the equation.

What job fits the target of your basic needs being met?

My target is doing as little as possible while dealing with as few people as possible while making enough to survive in the cheapest shelter I can find without being forced to rely on roommates.
