I find some of my job pretty interesting, and it usually doesn't get too boring. So just for that alone it's better than some things I could be doing. I wouldn't say I was ever passionate about it, but it's okay. I like the diversity of issues I wind up dealing with, and I appreciate that my experience has let me learn things that will always be of use in any business setting.
For a lot of people it’s a mix of money, flexibility, and that weird satisfaction of problem‑solving in the moment. Some genuinely love the team culture or the “no day is the same” aspect. If you’ve lost the passion, it might be worth asking, do you need a new property, a different role like events or sales, or a new industry altogether?
Conversation Starter
I love the people and my team. It’s a tough industry for sure but I need the money too.
Pro
It’s mostly my personal passion for the industry. I would attribute the rest to not being able to actually move to another industry. I could possibly flex in a skills elsewhere, but making a transition with the job market right now would be a no-no.
Rising Star
This hit hard because so many people feel this way but don’t say it out loud. For me, it stopped being about loving the job and more about finding small parts that didn’t drain me completely. Sometimes it’s coworkers, sometimes it’s helping one guest who genuinely needs it. You’re not wrong for feeling burned out.
