If it's your job to complain but you get burnt out on complaining, what would you do?

    I think it fits because it isn’t an actual question meant to be answered.

    It’s not really a serious question and one of those ponderous thoughts you only care about for ~10 seconds

  I used to be a window cleaner, and I’d get home and my hands were “dirty” with soap. Always felt weird trying to clean my hands. Can’t use soap that’ll make it worse!

  I would get so sick of complaining I’d probably start giving good advice and proactively trying to fix shit, eventually driving myself out of business. Then I’d complain about how it’s the government’s fault.

  Look at the purpose of your work. Is your job to complain, or is it really to find things to improve?Are you addressing the root of problems, or just observing the surface level symptoms? Are your escalations leading to improvements? If so, how can you show this? If not, why not? Most of all, is this effort creating a positive outcome, or is it enabling something that might be a net loss for the world as a whole?

  If this purpose has real meaning, the work will never get dull, and you will grow as you try more. If it’s pointless, then find something(s) better to do.
