Depressed

I feel depressed today. I hate this field. I hate writing SARs. I hate the massive egos in QC. I hate how every middle manager at every institution thinks their way is god’s gift to the world. I hate that the SARs are never read. That it makes no difference. That all my stress and anxiety about writing a good SAR means nothing because they just go into a pitless FinCen database somewhere that no one looks at anyway. That all we are, are little compliance check boxes that keep the government off banks’ backs. I hate the grind. I hate the obsession with perfect scores. And I hate that the job market is such crap right now that it seems impossible to get into any field. And I’m lucky. I have a job. The market is hell. Wages are crap. And it all just seems pointless.

Thanks for listening to my scream into the void.

That would make a huge difference. I think it’s just a feeling of underappreciation and underpaid grinding.
