Set up work boundaries. Work on things that actually progress your career further and say no to things that don’t progress your career. If your current job doesn’t respect your boundaries then leave. Ex. You need an hour to workout at 2 pm so no calls and add a calendar block at that time.
Yeah, well believe it or not you have the power. I’m assuming you’re the worker bee. You have the power to tell people to buzz off.

No matter how many boundaries I set up I still hate my job.
I feel drained no matter the job. Even if I like the position and/or employer, I always get home feeling like I walked 15 hours around Disneyworld pushing a double stroller.

But this is the nature of the beast if you’re a consultant or, in my case, a lawyer. I didn’t mind—and actually liked—big law. But when it was time to move on, I moved on. But for those who are really miserable, I don’t understand why you wouldn’t really sit down with yourself and come up with an exit plan.
I am drain 🙋♂️
Maybe check that you know how much satisfaction you want from your job. I find it helps to plan the what-next (boundaries, leave, change groups, etc.) E.g. do you want it to define your existence (possible but not recommended), do you want to know you’re making a (good) difference?, do you want to just wake up without crying?

I like what I do in my job, I don’t see myself doing anything else. However, I don’t like everything associated with my job, but that will happen with any activity. Things that I don’t like are typically beyond my control, for example people that have no limits to schedule meetings off work hours or people that have no notion of how much is too much work. But I do what is in my control to avoid suffering with them, and that is to say no to them.
I feel this. I enjoy my work and helping my client but it’s the corporate BS and admin and politics that drain my soul.
I felt this way earlier in my career (first 2-3 years out of undergrad)! It’s normal to an extent. As some have said here, things get better when you set good boundaries and work with people you actually like as humans. I LOVE the lifestyle I get in consulting now.
Hate the work I do but I like my co-workers. Trying to leave this year.
