Long story short the market is bad, we all know that. What can we do to stand out and get a wfh job, any advice is welcome. Applied to 100+ so many denials.

Due to extreme workload at work – (project manager with over 40+ projects) I called the Help Line to set up 'coaching' for stress. I completed the coaching and it was pretty much BS but the counselor was great and it did help me. My wife and I are now signed up for couples coaching – kind of just for fun but also to work out some issues – nothing serious. Doing the 'intake assessment' for couples coaching, the site asks a series of questions. I thought this sub would appreciate the absolute ass-backwards approach these corporate 'mental health' companies take. The questions go like this: “How much has your mental or physical health prevented you from performing your job?” answer choices are 'A Lot', 'Somewhat', 'Not At All' – along those lines – you get the idea. I am just flabbergasted by this: Dude, it's my JOB that is…

I enjoy this sub, I like reading all the different stories that come about. But honestly, it can get depressing after awhile. Especially if all we're doing is complaining about how crappy the world is. I made a post in the middle of the night, below, to try and offer something. On the off chance that I posted at a weird time, or maybe the original title wasn't attention getting, I'm making this one. https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/comments/11htcc2/antiwork_or_anti_exploitation/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 What do you people think? Does the Antiwork crowd just wanna read complaints? Are we all too crushed and empty to have any hope left?
