"Anyone up to impart advice on professional burn out?"


  

          

I got a job offer this week and I realized I couldn't do it
I've been on the inside of well over 100 warehouses and distros in my career and I just feel repulsed by those concrete walls and ceilings
But at the same time, I feel as if I don't have that as a luxury
That I need to be the kind of person that does what it takes to make money for my family
I'm honestly considering stepping away from the profession, but that feels selfish.

------
“There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn.” -Albert Camus
