I feel like I have to fake being happy whenever I’m in a meeting with my team or my boss. Everyone has this smirk on their face as if there aren’t millions of things they’d rather be doing than be packed in this conference room for the next hour or two together.

I’ve only been in the corporate world for 6 years and I’m already totally sick of it. Even when I’m working remote, I feel like I need to put on a fake happy face in our Teams meetings in order to not stick out. It’s gotten to a point where I can’t really fake it anymore. If I appear deadpan all the time, so be it. I hate being disingenuous anyways, but it seems to be the norm (unless people actually LIKE this job?). I’m exhausted.
