My family keeps pestering me to get a job. I know... I really want to move out again, too. 494Please respect copyright.PENANAOD9XN7n8Xp

But the thing is... I'm worthless to companies. The economy is declining, so of course competition will be more intense.494Please respect copyright.PENANAcUA9He5GVR
And me, in my field. Sure, my GPA is a little above average, but so what? There are so many people out there better than me.494Please respect copyright.PENANAI7Houz8b6O

I don't have a reason to work that's not money. Sure, I like talking to people, I work well in a team, but come on. 494Please respect copyright.PENANAlJVE3ae51c

But this time, I'm as unsure as ever. It's not even just "impostor syndrome". It's a fact. I have crap time management, I'm not motivated at all, not passionate, I don't like learning new things, new systems or anything related to the field. Who'd want to hire me?
And all this reflects in my digital interviews as well. I get choked up, and mess up multiple times.
I just... 494Please respect copyright.PENANAgLA0fk7KMi

I wish I could be happy without needing that money and status. Be fulfilled. Content.494Please respect copyright.PENANASMnWSs77Ly
