I hear you. I actually hate talking about my job anyway. Hate those awkward holiday conversations from relatives asking me about work. I usually tell them as many boring details as I can until their eyes glaze over and they walk away - lol.

Lol I never really know how to describe my job, I just say finance and hope they drop it...people are usually pretty impressed which is nice!

It is quite hard to explain if you don’t understand all the aspects. My brother keeps telling my ChatGPT is about to take my job and I keep telling him it’s not that simple - I do all kinds of random stuff each day

funny

I feel like 45% of my job is relationship management / politics… ChatGPT isn’t doing that for me lol

Last year when Covid broke, I received a couple of interview calls but ignored them as I felt the organization kept me at work when other companies cut short their HR staff so I should be with them even if with no appraisal. But now, I was living in the fool's paradise when I am told to leave with no job offers in hand, car and home loan, dependent parents, expecting jobless spouse with a 3-year old kid.

I will say this I love working with the students . I love getting to know them . I smile to myself when I go to work . I still feel this way after last week being asked my three different people about doing something where I told them that I was not going to do. following day I was then ambushed by admin (where I have never felt more like nothing. Following this encounter with people in charge I had an anxiety attack. This was terrible and I have no trust . TAs are mistreated. Similar story?
