[quote=Anonymous]I did everything the right way. I grew up poor & am a minority. Went to the military, got out and used the GI bill at a top undergrad. I interned on the hill. Got a prestigious fellowship for a year and then went to a top grad school. My resume is very strong and I am frequently praised for being a hard worker..but I legitimately hate working. I hate the creepy management, I hate office politics & the small 'watercooler talk', I hate that I have to put a smile on my face and deal with disgruntled clients, I hate working for the sake of working and having to fill my calendar with 40 hours even if I can effectively do all my work in 20 hours. I'm miserable trying to do this corporate grind. I left a job paying well over 100k because I have never felt so unfulfilled and dreaded going to work and not knowing what senior management was going to decide was a good idea that day. I'm not even motivated by the money like I was before.

For those of you who have experienced what I have, how did you survive? How did you end up finding something that was in that 30 hour a week time frame? Is federal side any better? Corporate? Small business?[/quote]
