I’ve been working at a VERY small biotech startup for the last year or so and it’s my first job after my masters and man I AM TIRED. I moved for this job because I absolutely love my boss, but the work is just so damn tiring (like I feel like I have a brain bleed) and I have a huge responsibility (which is great for my resume, but not my mental health). Plus, I just want to be a damn farmer. I’m young (24yo) and my parents are begging me to come back home, so I’m thinking I should and just start pushing for a farm. Get experience and network, while saving for land or lease when I’m ready. But I feel guilty bc I’m such an integral part of the team that there are future projects depending on me. I could definitely be replaced though, I’m still very much inexperienced , which is why I’m burnt the hell out. I miss my family as well and want to be closer to them. But why do I feel so guilty and like I’m giving up??
