I did 15 years at a small company. There was always a big break just around the corner that never came because of reasons. We got out but damn did I resemble that mouse. Only difference is I avoided FB because I dreaded the thought of my peers doing better. Only now do I realize almost everyone was in a similar trap or stuck in a loop of new jobs. The few I knew that had huge breaks always went into the new job loop eventually.
I'm right at that 15 year point and I'm starting to feel the onset of existential dread, or maybe it's just good old fashioned depression. I can tell it's time to get as far away from this job as possible but I'm just not sure what else to do yet lol

I sit in my open plan office all day, dreaming of the privacy of a cubicle

Can I get a link for that kind of job security?
