I have stress dreams sometimes and about old jobs. Like in my dream I'll wake up and suddenly remember I'll need to be at a job I haven't been at in years. But, the time has still passed. Like I'll be wondering why they scheduled me when I haven't been there in years, and then get even more stressed cuz I can't remember how to do anything.

Another one, I work from home. Off hours if I'm watching a movie or playing a game I'll sometimes look over to check my work laptop :/
