Because work is infantilizing

Long before you left home, you’d begun to leave childhood behind.

You’d begun to think independently.

You’d begun to act autonomously.

You’d begun to make your own decisions.

You’d begun to plan your own future.

You’d begun to exercise control over your life.

You’d begun to take responsibility for who you are.

Then, somewhere along the way from where you were then to where you are now, your work began to remind you of the frustrations of your childhood.

At work, you have no independence.

At work, you have no autonomy.

At work, other people make your decisions for you.

At work, other people plan your future for you.

At work, you’re unable to exercise control.

At work, you’re unable to take responsibility for who you are.

Your work is infantilizing.
