We’re all messing with you. You’re actually living in a psychiatric ward and your “clients” are fellow patients. The ward is underground. We all live there now. Oh and you have a plug in the back of your head. Cave rave starts in a few mins.

I’ve felt seriously burned out at my firm for a long time, and now during this point in the year I’ve reached a new level of struggle in terms of trying to be productive. I’m hoping things will change in the new year but I find myself browsing fishbowl and Reddit and struggling to stay on task now more so than ever, and I’m feeling super guilty about it. On my plate in terms of work are reports that are basically data entry, and incredibly menial discovery responses. Help!
