I’ve been on a medical LOA since last year and tomorrow I go back to work and I keep thinking about how almost all my coworkers I knew are gone and processes have changed. Also that if I do something wrong I might injure myself again and be right back where I was a year ago (I have been cleared for full job duties by my doctor).

    My remote call-center job. It takes it out of me like no other job has. Every single second is measured and tracked and “optimized”. Don’t get me wrong, I’m thankful to have the job. It pays better than anything else I’d be qualified for (probably) at 18.50 an hour, and I’m immunocompromised, so I need remote work. More than that, I’m genuinely good at it. But I can’t help but feel that it’s not for me forever, and I don’t know how to transition out of it.

    (It’s iOS and macOS tech support)

      Having worked a call-center before I know those feelings. If you’re good with the technical aspects of it then it may be worth looking at getting some computer certifications and leaning into that skill imo.
