I really don’t understand this housing market. Did execs from big companies really decide to screw first time home buyers by purchasing all these homes for cash and driving up this ridiculous market?

Is it naive to hope that there could be a job out there that I actually LIKE doing as opposed to just forcing myself to do it for the paycheck? I work for a great company with (mostly) great people but still find myself wishing I could be doing anything else throughout the workday. After a number of different jobs in industry and consulting have left me feeling the same after a year or so, I'm starting to wonder if it'll always be this way and actually liking work is just out of reach.

Got home at 10pm tonight to a cooked meal, vacuumed house, and my husband cleaning the kitchen. Cried like a baby.
