  1. 1

    I currently work at a wedding venue, and while I don't hate the job, I feel like I'm making everyone's experience worse just by being there. Honestly, I'm not passionate about weddings at all; I even think marriage is a bit of a scam. Despite this, the pay is good for the relatively easy work I do. However, I've been receiving constant complaints from clients, and it makes me feel like I'm fundamentally wrong for this role. My management hasn't indicated that I'm failing, but I can't shake the feeling that I'm ruining a special day for people. I've been applying for other jobs for months without success, and it's taken a toll on my mental health. I've had to reduce my hours to just one day a week, which isn't sustainable financially, but I feel like I can't function properly at work anymore. This has created a negative cycle where I show up mentally unwell and receive more complaints.
