I’m going to be honest here, it doesn’t sound like you even really know what you want. Annoying coworkers are an inevitable part of adult life. I have had a lot of jobs at many different companies, and you just learn how to fake nice and play as little of the office politics that you can. The best thing for you, I think, would be finding a remote job if that’s possible. There are a ton of remote positions now a days and that’s the best way to not have to interact with other people, save for zoom meetings.
I am an account manager in the SaaS (software as a service) world. I’ve been doing it about 10 years now, the last 4 have been fully remote. It’s a really easy job for the most part, I mainly just watch movies in the background all day. You just have to be good at time management and talking with clients/running meetings. I currently make around 6 figures doing this job. The best way to get into this is not glamorous, but I’d recommend starting in customer service which I think is pretty much remote these days. You may also take a pay cut starting out, not really sure what it pays nowadays, but it’s the best way to get into doing it without having a degree.
I use my phone except for work. If there are good iPhone ad blockers, if use them.

This is cool, but wouldn’t it make any tire issue an engine issue and this way more expensive and difficult to deal with?

This is a debut album. Has to be one of the greatest debut albums ever made. A freaking home run right out of the gate
Best of luck to you too. I also just had my first child and moved across the country. Timing could not have been worse. I haven’t been to an office since the day they sent us home for “2 weeks” while covid calms down. I’ve started applying to local jobs, willing to give up remote work. Never thought I’d be willing to give that up.
I’ve worked in the SaaS world for nearly a decade. I’ve never had an issue getting a new job every couple of years. The best path for promotions and salary increases in this world. I was unfortunately part of a layoff back in the summer, and I have never had such a hard time finding work in my life.
Every time I go to apply to a job that’s fairly new, I can see there are already a couple thousand applicants. Suddenly my decade of experience isn’t enough to land an interview, much less a job.
It. Sucks.
I have zero tips for you, but I love this post. Why does his house smell so bad? Has anyone mentioned it to him? So many questions.
Dude. Same. I finally started making a 6 figure salary, and I feel just as broke as I did before. It sucks.
You either die a Frodo, or live long enough to become a Gollum.
Is there another way than just going back and forth and manually putting them in?

I understand your point, but can you name any republican politician who is publicly pro LGBTQ+ rights?
But if you’re voting republican, you are voting for people who do believe in those things. They are also working to punish them every chance they get.

What is your opinion on the barriers between church and state being actively eroded by conservative christians?
