As the title suggests: I don’t want to work. I am fortunate enough to live in social housing so they can only take 25% of my earnings as rent. Less I earn, less rent I pay. I receive a pension for looking after my elderly parent and my autistic/adhd child: that’s a full time job in itself but I need to also work 15 hours per week to keep receiving this income support pension. I’m 50 and I’ve worked across a multitude of industries. I’ve flipped burgers, worked in c-suite support roles, in customer service, in law and investment banking and television in various admin positions, web design and content creation and even massage therapy and sex work. Now I just feel like I’ve got no more left to give. Every job description I read: seems overwhelmingly difficult. Employers want too much. I just want to take care of my family and go to the beach. I also judge myself harshly for being perceived as a slacker. Other than monetary incentive, how do you find the drive to work after 50??
