I've got an interview tomorrow, and I'm fucking terrified. I'm terrified because I'm absolutely sure that I'll get the job. I'm well-spoken, people seem to think I have it "together," and I'm good at what I do.
HOWEVER, I'm fucking constantly terrified. For some reason, part of me cares deeply about what others think about me, even though I actively despise most of the coworkers I've ever encountered at my job.
What philosophy will help me mitigate my deep-seated anxieties? How do I just go with the flow and become someone who doesn't give a fuck?
We're all going to die, so why do I give a fuck if some roastie thinks poorly of me?

Can I get some career advice from my fellow failed English majors, /lit/? Like most of you, I'm almost entirely talentless, but I am capable of forming a sentence. With the advent of zoomers, social media, etcetera, that's obviously a quality that is becoming increasingly hard to come by.

I work a pretty braindead 9-5 job writing descriptions for fashion apparel, but it's a dead-end position. No way to move forward. No chance at a raise. I've done it for three years because I'm your typical resigned 4chan wageslave, but I'd like to shrug off my yoke.

Are there any jobs that I could make the jump to that would let me utilize my very minimal skills? pls help I don't want to kill myself yet /lit/

How do I get into copywriting? Better yet, where do I go from an English degree and shitty job writing product descriptions to an actual career?

>used to love playing D&D and piecing together my own setting
>spent years throwing together fun fantasy settings just for the hell of it
>wrote my own manuscript for a novel that I decided to shelve for personal reasons
>now utterly burnt out from three years of soulless work grind
>all of the escapist joy of fantasy feels childish
>the genre feels bloated and stagnant
>feel a legitimate dread for books as a whole because no one fucking reads anymore
I just want my passion for fantasy rekindled, /lit/. How do I do it?
