I hate my fucking job

[qualityOV3Rquantity]

I don't work in a corporate environment, but rather in a research/think tank nonprofit. And I hate it. I hate all the bullshit language: circle back, touch base, connect, follow up, flag this, share screen, ping me, keep her in the loop, fast track, on the back burner, action, fuck i fucking hate it. I hate the sense of urgency for things that don't fucking matter. who gives a shit if the report is published late, no one is going to read it. International development is such a bullshit field, it doesn't make any difference, it doesn't work. My company paid $6000 for some podcaster to record some stupid audio that no one will watch. It makes me ashamed to work for this fucking company that gets grant money from different governments, we're basically stealing money from taxpayers and using it for my boss's insane incomprehensible research projects, flying halfwaya round the world every 3 months for no fucking reason, this whole industry is bullshit. It's just wealthy academics pretending that all the world's problems can be solved if we just give them enough taxpayer's money. I can't wrap my head around the actual content of our work, I work for this company and I don't understand what the shit we publish means, fuck this.

I hope I'm fired, I hope my company goes bankrupt, I hope governments stop giving us money for this ridiculous bullshit we do. It maks me want to fucking die so badly, I'ma lready wasting away from chronic illness and I'm giving my energy and stressing so much over absolute meaningless bullshit.

Should have clarified lol, I'm not the one that gets to travel, that's just my boss. I get paid a dollar above my country's minimum wage and can't even work full time due to being too chronically ill and useless

Damn that sounds almost identical to this place I've gone to. It's a place that uses people with mental illness to file paperwork to get grants and funding from the government and private institutions. They also have a bullshit social media presence that no one looks at too. They sort of promise you that they will hook you up with a job or housing if you are in need. But, most of the time that is absolutely not the case. They use all this corporate/liberal/DEI jargon to describe things. In reality it just seems like a money laundering operation that uses slave labor and exploits some of the hardest hit members of society wrapped in up fake, feel good bullshit. There are staff members there that do get paid that basically do the same thing you do. The director is the one that probably makes the most. There's also a board of directors that work for various institutions, banks, and corporations in the area. It's all very suspect.
