United-Broccoli-6766's journey

I recently started a job as a groundskeeper at an apartment complex on May 1st, and it's been a tough few months. Initially, I enjoyed the work because it was easy, but now I find myself dreading each day. The routine is monotonous, and the tasks I perform are often unpleasant, like cleaning up trash and dealing with dog waste. I spend most of my mornings picking up litter and cleaning common areas, and after lunch, I often have to find busywork just to fill the time. I feel like I'm not given proper guidance, and when I'm asked to do something new, I often mess it up because I have no idea how it's supposed to be done. I suspect I might have ADD, which makes the repetitive nature of this job even more draining for me. On top of that, I have some health issues that make dealing with unpleasant tasks, like emptying trash cans filled with maggots, really difficult. I took a year and a half to find this job after high school, so I'm grateful to have it, but I'm seriously considering quitting. I don't want to leave without another job lined up, but the thought of staying here for another year until I can join the police academy, my dream career, feels unbearable. I'm torn between wanting to stick it out and the desire to find something more fulfilling.
