There was a certain amount of pointlessness that was compounded by a feeling of being trapped. The pointlessness came from having enough experience in the job to recognise that it wasn’t as satisfying as I thought it would be. You naively make assumptions about a specific career path. Then you get to that point where it doesn’t live up to expectations, so you stop aspiring to make progress. You look at your role models further up the food chain and realise you don’t want to be like them. Suddenly that path looks very unattractive.
