I work in HR so my days are spent mopping up other people’s problems and dealing with very difficult situations.
I earn a decent salary which I feel is about right as the emotional weight I carry is exhausting day in day out. It caused me terrible anxiety for many years but managed to come out the other side. However I have seen many HR professionals leave because it can be exhausting.
DH says all I do is sit at home all day and send emails. I’m absolutely fuming in side.
