Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

If you had a bad feeling about it before you even started there then there's a 99% chance that you were going to hate it if you took the job.
You'll never know if it happened to be in that 1% category now but there's no point torturing yourself over it because how many times would you have to roll the dice and take shitty jobs that you hate before you luck out and find a winner?
