Hello. I am burnt out in recruiting. I am ready to move onto something else. What would you say is an easy transition? I don’t even care about commission. I only need a steady $45k salary. I just am not sure where to go from here.

Hello! I’m sorry you’re feeling so burnt out. I feel a lot of jobs are beginning to feel like that. Are you open to other opportunities? I’d love to chat and potentially help you out!

Try HR generalist or operations support. You already understand people and processes — just ditch the commission trap for a stable salary.

Honestly, same. When recruiting starts feeling like emotional damage with admin duties, customer success or HR coordination can be a softer landing. Still people-focused, but without the daily ghosting.

I want to buy a large TV for Cyber Monday but have always been lower income. I would feel bad having family over with an expensive TV. I don't really need it. Our house is still very much low budget. I haven't made any real upgrades since getting a new job.

Is this a weird rationalization or logical? I am kind of torn so I considered just using that money for a vacation and maybe buying a TV next year... though I'll likely do this again at that time.
