My job is so pointless and dreary and the comfiness is being marred by the worry that I'm not normie enough for my coworkers and something bad may be coming down the line.

I have a job interview with another company and I searched for people in a similar position in LinkedIn and the people in the same position are much older than me. It kind of hit home how much of a bubble my large company is and how other places can be wastelands. You can be on £50k and simply be a glossier version of middle aged minimum wage workers. I think I won't be serious about the other job because it looks like an increase in rigmarole. Once I fall through the social cracks in a workplace and I'm resting in the underground soil, there's some comfiness to it. Leaving would just repeat things.

I read some articles during the work day about "pitching a startup" and networking. It was depressing. There is so much to consider these days when doing anything. Bureaucracy is everywhere. It's checklists all the way up or down. Everyone ultimately has to be a middle man because of all the specialised tools and services being used.
