I really really don’t want to go to work tomorrow (I work from home, so I’m not going anywhere other than having to log on for endless meetings but I digress). Having this long weekend makes me realize just how hard things have become at my job — federal adjacent (contracting firm). Every day for the last 6 months we’ve been waiting for another shoe to drop (and many already have). I know that come October 1 and the change of the federal fiscal year contracts will likely not be renewed and I’ll lose my job. The constant uncertainty has been mental exhausting. And, there are no jobs. I’ve been applying but so is everyone in my field.
I just wish things would get better sigh.
