The specific thing you spend the most time doing instead of the actual job you're being paid to do is your new profession. What's your new job title? (lemmy.world)

Yeah I had a plan when I quit: Quitting was the plan. Instant relief of so many mental symptoms I could name and some I probably couldn't lol. Don't care what happens now. Anything is better than that.
