I’m exhausted and seriously considering leaving for a less stressful job during the crucial project time. I’m no longer getting younger and the almost daily nighters is keeping a toll on my health.

Leave. Make sure you have a nest egg, and go. Grab some echinacea tea, start some meditation, and get out. It’s not worth the toll on your health. Decompress and you’ll find work. You’re smart and capable. An industry with better balance will swoop you up. Just take care of yourself.

Hate to break it OP, you were never getting younger. From the day we’re born we’re all just one step closer to dying. From that perspective, this job probably isn’t worth it

Bounce man/woman

OMG leave. Not worth it.

Have you spoken up yet?

How could you possibly be doing all nighters 1x per month, much less every day. Need to get more efficient

Not worth it

Sounds like there are bigger issues at hand if the all nighters are recurring. Have you raised this issue to the project leaders? How have they addressed it? Are you asked to eat hours too?

Maybe he means evening work? Seems like not a native English speaker. But either way, you do need to take care of yourself, but I think that also includes having financial security. Wait for next opportunity to address with project leader. They should help you get work under control until you can take break. Ask for help.

Forget about “no longer getting younger” — I’m amazed to hear that at some point you we’re getting younger. Can you tell us about that?! 🤣
