To anyone who is stuck in their job and feeling bad about it every second. Please resign immedietly.
I have seen in my career that it works out eventually, you don't need to lose your mind over something insignificant.
Everyone finds a job in the end, even people with 1 year gap.
Staying in a bad job makes you depressed slowly, it's like a slow poison.
Trust in yourself and your skills. You'll find another job.
But yes, please skill yourself so that you can find a job any day.
