Yeah when I was working restaurant shifts I was great at So Long Suckers, but now that I’m in nonprofit every hour not working feels like taking things away from the people I’m serving. And that’s how they manage to pay us comparatively little.
oh, at my dayjob I’m like, punch in, check personal email, fuck around and look busy, take as long a break as possible, punch out ten minutes early. And then I come home and lie around because I’m so tired from all of that avoiding work.
But then I go to the farm and I’m like. It’s like I’m sinning if I sit down. You know?
Because there’s just so much to do and all of it matters. And, there, a lot of it is stuff that’s not business-related, but there’s just always so much to do.
It’s not good, because I get exhausted and burn out. But once I’m doing I can keep doing, much more effectively than stopping and starting. So I can be really productive. So I do all kinds of housework things there, that I don’t do for myself at home, because at home I’m already in idleness mode. It’s no good.
But anyway. Ugh. Meaningful work that inspires you is great and all, but it also tends to eat one headfirst, or does for me anyway.
