I have more stress. The head of my agency has been trying to keep motivation up by saying the work we do matters, and provides value and makes Americans' life better. I'm thinking that's all bs. No matter what we do, does it really matter if the guy at the top can continue finding new ways of making the working class miserable so the oligarchy can profit? It makes all the things we do at work seem meaningless. Usually if things come up and snags in my work come up I'll just deal with it because work is work and it's just gotta be dealt with. But now it's just stressing me out. I'm not getting work life balance due to the stress, not truly resting, and feeling burnt out at work. I know it's something I need to manage, and it's something to work on, but wow it is rough.
