Think I had my FTE

[Prusak]

My boss just handed his notice in after 5 months, he was so miserable that he left without another job lined up, that miserable job could be mine in 5 years time if I only work extremely hard, put in loads of overtime, so I'll be disposable and have a miserable job at the end, I think I'll pass

Welcome to TFF Prusak!
Sounds rough, glad you had that realization now instead of when you turned 40 at least!

What do you want to do heading into the future?

I know the feeling. I hate the feeling too.
Wish I knew about TFF in 2010 when I read Rich Dad, Poor Dad & instead started businesses then that were nowhere close to CENTS.

I have become really careful whenever I read stories about FTEs.
It is often some vague "I am discontent all the time" story, not a shock to the system that demands a strong response.
Your boss "quit"? Sounds more like yet another strong indicator that traditional careers might suck, but maybe that actually went deeper on a emotional level than I imagine. Good luck, I hope it does put you on a better trajectory.
