My family keeps pestering me to get a job. I know... I really want to move out again, too. 520Please respect copyright.PENANAUto7zZ1d62

But the thing is... I'm worthless to companies. The economy is declining, so of course competition will be more intense.520Please respect copyright.PENANATWBrhT6Hdm

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... 520Please respect copyright.PENANAHXeKI97l4l

I wish I could be happy without needing that money and status. Be fulfilled. Content.520Please respect copyright.PENANACKGS8n0lOi
