Over The Whole Work From Home Thing

Hello Everyone: I reached my saturation point with the job today. The general frustration with the lack of organization and clarity of expectations finally got to me. It didn't help that I had a headache all afternoon. I've been on the job nearly two months, enough time to get a general sense of the assignment and I'm not to thrilled with it. I drafted an email to the recruiter, expressing my general frustration and, once again, reassignment. I didn't hit send because it was one of those emails typed out in the heat of the moment. I'll come back to it in a couple of days or so to see if I still feel the same way. I reached out to the job coach, describing my situation and desire for something more stable and secure. Hopefully with the world opening back up, the job coach can help me find something more suitable. I'm not that irresponsible that I would quit before I had something else. I used to do that but anymore. I grew up and gladly accepted all the responsibilities of an adult. Funny thing about that, I used to dream about living an ordinary life with all the responsibilities of it. Things like a job, paying the bills, grocery shopping,and so on. It sounds silly but after being in a bad relationship and looking after mum, I craved some normalcy. I got what I wanted, it sucks but I love it. So the job isn't all that perfect but it does help with the bills and allowed to buy a new tube of lipstick (literally). My frustration with the job stems from the whole start up nature of it. The other thing is I'm over the whole work from home thing and being lashed to an eight hour Zoom meeting. I'm so ready for in-person work. In fact I read that employers are putting a premium on hires that can work in-person. I'm vaccinated and, as long as all the necessary precautions are in place, I'm good with working in-person. Anyway, I'm going to get a good night's sleep and start fresh in the morning.
