College burned me out. The solution was, as another commenter suggested, to drop the baggage and move on. I had a semester left and my career in front of me. Which do you think I picked? Waiting another semester wouldn't have helped me in the slightest.

A couple jobs ago, I worked for a company in the Education disruption space and COVID essentially killed the culture. It was always a big "political activism" company, but the rhetoric got cranked to 11 with COVID and it was incredibly hard to get work done in the same way I used to. The cure here was to give myself more time, I realized here I had been sacrificing a lot for employers who didn't give two shits about me.
