Everyone seems overworked underpaid undervalued and often even attacked.

Are there any decent easy jobs now?

@Ifailed

I love my job, I make up job descriptions and post them on the internet.
May I ask how you got into that please? I would love to do that.

@PaintAndPirouettes

Go self employed. You'll still be overworked and underpaid, possibly worse than before, but at least you'll be in control of it all which makes it feel a lot easier.

And after a while, if you get it right, you can get a member of staff to do all the bits you don't like.

I was self employed pre-covid but the combination of covid and the IR35 rules changes meant all the work in my field (Niche IT) dried up.

I much preferred it but DP said it was a nightmare when I was looking for a new gig.
