RIP to the one thing that made work even semi-enjoyable.

    because hanging out with your co workers or boss still feels like work, and work sucks and is alienating

        This 💯

        Not to misuse a term but it essentially feels like continued masking, it takes mental effort and is absolutely not relaxing.

          My yearly work dinners with the company owners feel like a hostage event

      Say the wrong thing, be unemployed for years. Sounds like a great time.

      Probably through the trauma-bonding, I became good friends with many of my coworkers and we’d occasionally hang out, sans boss.

      So it wound up hurting on a surprisingly emotional level when a round or two of burnout chased off so many work-friends I’d known for years. We’ve all been so busy at our respective jobs now, it kinda sucks.
