Today has been the most frustrating day that I've had this year by far.

I'm completely fed up by the tons of 'extracurricular activities' that I've got to do on top of my job, and that other people similar to myself don't have to do that, and they're similarly compensated. I'm sick of watching other people leave my company and wondering that if it's so great, what am I still doing there? Am I being an idiot staying there while other, more experienced people leave?

I'm tired of feeling as though I don't have any control over my own life, over work, my social life, my (lack of) love life.

So what did I do? I did the only thing possible in my situation. I left the office at 7.45 pm and went home. To work.
