Hoping the interview went well. Didn't ask too much about how they were handling things in the Covid era since it's laid out on their website (I asked about financial concerns rather than customer service), which... not sure if that shot me in the foot or not. I think I'll find out before the end of May if I have a second interview or not.
I assume I'm the first person to ever feel like this.
This implies people want to go to work sometimes?
Jokes aside, I’m definitely finding it harder to get any positive motivation happening. I’m basically working out of a combination of not wanting to get fired (and not having been here long enough to know how much I could skate), plus a bunch of internalized self-loathing/anxiety if I go to bed without making headway on a problem. Whereas normally I have at least some positive desire to move forward on a task or project.
I had to get up early for a project kickoff meeting today and I’m putting in some serious thought about just spending the rest of the afternoon napping.

I gave a thoughtful response to a query about teaching laboratories this coming Fall earlier today and just got volunteered as the departmental representative to a college-level task force.
I hate that if just one person writes a check, that's a whole separate deposit I have to prepare.
I work at a Target store and recently our guy who handles receiving has been needing some time off for a LOA and such due to him being asthmatic and the whole covid thing, so I got tapped to fill in for him. We mail out our checks weekly to the nearby corporate campus, and being a store in a area with a lot of retirees we get a fair amount of physical checks still. It amounts to maybe a pound a week, but man I can only imagine what it would have been like before debit cards were a common thing.

Yeah, I understand people do sometimes like work but that’s essentially how I feel 100% of the time, except thankfully I don’t always carry projects over to the next day.
But it’s absolutely been tougher lately, too. Working from home is definitely a double edged sword (it might be better if the owners were fine with it).
My job’s about as good as it’s going to get for me, though. The only ideal life is one in which I don’t have to work, and that’s not feasible for the vast majority of people.
Moving somebody into a new position, against their will, that they are not trained for, and not training them for, seems like some really terrible management and a great way to lose good employees for no raisin at all.

Shitface managers do it to flex on good workers to "put them in their place" and establish their authority
Mostly as a show to the bad workers who's boss, because if they do that to a good worker, what will they do to you?
The funny part is those good employees tend to self manage as long as you're not a dick about yelling or time off to the point where you can basically do nothing as a manager and delgate the important shit to them.

yeah sometimes the job is just what gets you a paycheck.
I'm lucky enough that most of the time my job aligns somewhat with things I would do on my own time anyway, or at least stuff I enjoy doing, but these last few months have been a slog - not least because for infrastructure reasons right now I can only do the parts of my job that involve software dev and as I've bitched about previously, I hate that shit.
Also I hate having to be anywhere (even my own living room) before 10am and am very resentful of externally imposed working hours.
edit: as problems go, though, this is the most middle-class suck-it-up-Sally bullshit imaginable "oh no you no longer feel INSPIRED boohoo" so, under the circs, I really cannot complain.

My problem with that is if lunch is provided, it's going to be bad, and it means more time allotted for the meeting, to spend it with people I don't want to be around. I've got work to do, let me go do it
Pre quarantine I did WFH about 50% of the time, so switching to 100% wasn't too bad aside from having to figure out new ways of doing what were always face to face meetings.
But the kids being home has meant my hours working are fractured and in order to give them extra time I'm both waking up early to get work done as well as working into the evening to finish. There have been a few weeks where I realized I barely had any time to decompress and it, along with general coronavirus stress, was really putting me into a rough emotional state.

Nothing feels better than purposefully picking meeting times to avoid having a meeting with someone you dislike when you know their schedule and waiting for the other people to relent on including them.
I may or may not do this for coworkers and external contractors who are perpetual meeting extenders and tangent generators (asking stupid questions that aren't relevant).

ok well utterly bonkers carbon footprint aside (and cost!) how exactly do you handle that for 3/6/12 month projects? five year projects? These kind of things ain't one-and-done, they are ongoing and evolving. When you say "with project managers" do you mean only the project managers get to speak to each other face to face? Cause I'll say right now, for research that's a big wet fart in terms of both idea generation and analysis/critiques. Discussions between team members need to happen, and a lot of the time they are simply not going to be as effective over email or chat services.
Like, I get your pushback here against having work meetings push into non-work time, and yes absolutely this stuff should be kept to a minimum for multiple reasons, but my fix would be to first find meeting times that people can actually make and then eg. allow people to take time off in lieu if they're not within the standard 9-5 (on top of that fixing the work day at 9-5 is already arbitrary and bullshit anyway, I personally work better with a 10-7 schedule, and I know we've had this discussion).

Pre-COVID-19: One-ish-week (minimum 5 days in the lab) technical sync-up and hands-on lab work with 2-7 people traveling to destination office roughly every 3-6 months. Every 12 months is a big sync-up with program management and a shit load of free food. Get 3 years in and then cancel that project. Shake with ice. Pour into a martini glass.

Carbon footprint problem still stands, and this is highly discipline and project specific. For my field (fields? tbh I never work with other engineers), usually for anything long term we'll try and meet up in person at some point (at conferences if not direct institutional visits), but it's pricey and we really have to justify the latter if it's intercontinental. (Lab-work-specific visits are different, but if resources are that localised and someone at another institute needs access that badly we'll try and embed them for at least 6-10 weeks).

Yeah sometimes you need to work silly hours because people insist on living in silly places (California). We could fly everybody about for every meeting but then we'd just live on planes and need to find a way to do la work during flights.
The good news is that Cv19 looks like it'll kill off lots of our business travel long term as people realise that sometimes you can make it work, so I'll probably only be going places a few times a year.

I write my own work schedule. I also pretty much come & go as I please. I write myself a 40 hour work week, but I usually end up somewhere in the mid-30s because after about 34 or so hours, I hit a different tax bracket or something and my net pay barely budges. So yeah, I leave early a lot. All of my work gets completed, I'm just not wasting extra time pretending to work or looking for busy-body stuff.
Which leads to odd observations like two days ago, as I was leaving work, I looked at my watch, and said to myself, "Shit, I accidentally worked a full shift.".
