Freelance programming pay per gig is pretty good. Especially in languages that are useful to $dayjob. Get paid and get better in those. My 10 cents. Freelancer[.]com is what I use. Not an endorsement just saying

Thank you

Negotiating is not an option with this darn company...

Yeah. I wouldn’t say anything to anyone if you take up a side hustle. Also would make it unrelated to your consulting work if you want to be super safe

Yeah for sure. I wouldn’t make it related, but I don’t know where to start

Mentioned to my boss this week that I had reached burnout & that I was beginning to consider my options. I have received offers recently 50K above what I make now & communicated that. On Friday they said their boss would be touching base with me next week. I am in above average standing with the company & received a good annual raise earlier this year. The issue is I took the job below my market value to get out of a much worse job 2 years ago. Realistic outcomes for my upcoming meeting?

What's triggering you to feel exhausted, negative, or lose your motivation?

We all start our jobs full of hope and promise. That same hope and promise may still be there. However, the eventual grind or consistent overcommitment of anything will trigger you towards Burnout if you are not aware of them.

Be aware if you are consistently over-committing to something that will burn you out. Take breaks. Change your patterns. Whatever you need to do. Just don't overdo it.
