Can't give out too many details, but for the last 5.5 years I've worked as an independent contractor as a Realtor working for a team of real estate agents to help them with their paperwork, legalities, and timeliness. I have at times felt overworked and underpayed. The job has be come beyond stressful and anxiety, depression, and a feeling of worthlessness has followed me every morning for the 2 years of it.
I know over the years the people I work for whom benefit from me have talked shit behind my back, gossiped about private emails that were never sent to them (my employer, my “boss” shared the contents of these emails), and have treated me that I will owe 9k – 27k on a mistake that I never made (once I proved I was not at fault and not liable for that amount of money that email chain ceased, crickets).
Today I take control of my happiness once again. I've worked as a content creator online for the last 4 years on the side; I now make more money doing that and get so much joy and fulfillment from it, so I will now be doing this full time.
Wish me luck, everyone.
