I am so tired, tired of writing even that post.
I was recently informed that we should go back to the office 3 days/week. My company is super small so I cannot disappear in a crowd.
What's funny is that according to my contact, it's WFH, but could be “changed anytime”. Why there are no statutory protections against such clauses? What's the point of a contract then?
I have ADHD and depression, on top of studying part time. I absolutely cannot commute 1hr one way without wishing to unalive myself.
People suggest reading a book but to me it's like applying numbing spray when my arm is being cut off. I still lose a lot of time I will never get back. Sure I am salty about the money too, but mostly about the time. I want to spend that time with my cats, not among strangers in a crowded seat.
People also say “find a new job” but it's pretty hard to find something more decent, what I believe to be recession. But if anyone could give comprehensive advice on how, I would be glad. My field is Accounting and my country is Australia.
