Why is it so hard to find a job I like and stick to it?

Also important to add, I told myself I wouldn't stop moving around until I found a job that I was satisfied with.

But the longest I've been on one job was almost 3 years.

I've been at my current one for about 5 months and I am ready to go.

There's gotta be something out there for me.
There's gotta be more to life.

I've found even with a degree, finding a good job is really hard. Mostly it's not the actual work but it's the management who adopt the lead with the stick rather than the carrot approach to make up for their lack of people management skills.

@SW-User my manager is ok. Not super supportive but I don't like the job. The kids are bad, and I"m not into it. I thought I wanted to be an actual teacher but most of what [i]I[/i] do is deal with bad behavior

@iamnikki That doesn't sound like fun at all, in fact very stressful. Hope you are able to find something else.

@SW-User I feel like i"ll be job hopping forever

@iamnikki It seems to be the new normal these days. I have older uncles who were in their same jobs for life, but i don't think even companies want someone staying that long now.
