Its amazing how im 42 and still learning things about myself. So what i mean is lets say i just got off work and want to say do the laundry at home. I need a small maybe 10-15 minute buffer before i go ahead with it. You might also call it simply a pause to simply allow my brain to reset itself and brace for the next activity so i can go at it with 💯 mental energy and clarity.

looks like im not the only one who needs this cause i found this article on it. https://dakharipsyc.com/blog/mental-buffer-time/

Why These Short Pauses Matter

Constant activity with no breaks can lead to mental fatigue, shorter attention spans, and more stress. The mind works best when it has a little space to reset. Even a couple of minutes is enough to:

- Process what you just finished, so nothing lingers in the background
- Calm any tension or anxiety before moving on
- Give your brain a break from always being “on”

If you’ve ever felt on edge or stuck in a cycle of busyness, buffer time acts as a natural speed bump, helping you slow down so you can move forward with greater wellbeing.

Everything and everyone seems so dull. Everyone keeps to themselves mostly it seems. Any social gatherings seem brief and short. I can tell people seem bogged down.

You go out places now, and people are in and out. Everything is business with no chatter.

I was in the grocery store long ago and mentioned this to a cashier that people don't like to openly talk anymore. She thought about it and agreed.

I was also at the grocery store a few days ago and some child seated in a cart dropped his boxed juice on the ground. I was being nice and picked it up. I went "uh oh, did you drop something?" and handed it back. The mom just had this straight face and was like "thanks". She seemed uncomfortable of my nice gesture.

My life specifically, I am a newlywed and my wife is just so tired and antisocial after work. On her 2 days off, she just likes to stay inside and sleep. I am disabled and have been a hermit myself, although I have been working on a web project and have some stressors too. Everything is just so expensive and you can smell the greed and selfishness everywhere.

Crossing guard is part time, barely above minimum wage, contractual obligation to work during school months, and gotta pass a background check to make sure I'm not a pedophile. Garbage man is full time, moderately above minimum wage with chance for more pay over time, essential job so can never be laid off if economy worsens, and very physically demanding. However though, crossing guard being part time and super easy to do allows me enough time and effort to further dedicate the next few months for my startup to take off, whereas garbage man I can finally achieve financial independence in a short time frame (months instead of years if I relied on startup) and I don't have to be at home with my weird family.

Of course, it's up to the employers if they wanna hire me or not based on available positions and how fucked or easy the hiring process is, and if I can be offered to work as either, I still don't know which to choose. I've checked other public sector jobs in my city, and sadly they're not eligible for me as I either lack the necessary credentials and/or the relevant work experience (so volunteering, freelancing, transferrable, etc don't count). I basically gave up on applying for private sector jobs, since I've applied to probably thousands at this point over the past decade with almost no success besides some interviews that got me nowhere. And also because the economy is so fucking terrible, along with employers not wanting to hire full time positions nor provide benefits nor pay a liveable wage.
