I've done one of these. "IT" but you barely needed to know how to turn on a computer. Paid well though. I literally counted the money I was making and visualized spending it. For the next six months every time I bought something I converted the price to units of work done at that shitty job. Like, those bike repairs cost 2.5 hours at X -- no biggie. It helped. Sort of.It’s not the most interesting job, it doesn’t involve design or creating things, and isn’t something that I’m capable of forcing myself to truly like. They’ve hired an Engineer to do something that has no science or engineering involved. I’m essentially pushing papers and doing data management on a day to day basis. It’s kind of soul crushing to realize that I’m not really getting a single thing out of this, and hope that I can find a way out before my scheduled end date in August. It’s a good thing this is all temporary, but I’m still losing my mind over it and how everything has worked out.
