Do you enjoy your job? (piefed.social)

I am not in a comfortable situation in mine. It is a bit toxic tbh. The rest of it seems normal - so many meetings, everyone fumbling around trying to meet the goals that shift around. I do like the parts where I get to write code though:-).

Nobody enjoys 100% of every day and every activity. But do you enjoy your job... mostly?

My job sucks but I really love it. It's the best job I've ever had compensation wise but it is stressful as hell and I'm pretty sure it's turning my hair gray. It's also the best job in turn of meaning, I can actually make an impact for people.

I'm planning on moving up in the company, I'm missing where I started as I take more of a background role a little but I can't have worked front-line forever for many reasons.

That sounds... I don't even know. Wonderful and terrifying at the same time!? Don't let it destroy you in the process, but if you can handle it then that's great! 👍
