Have you ever worked in a different job? How much hours a week do you work?

I always worked with computers unfortunately... I work about 40 - 45 hours, it's not that intense, I have time to procrastinate a bit

I suspect it's not that related to my job, I used to have the same effects when I spend lots of time playing video games. Like if the screen was 'sucking me in'

I can assure you a mundane job like helping customers at a physical counter is totally different. Or woodworking, or farming. You won't feel drained and you can keep work 'at work'.

Also, in the last years I was an employee I never worked more than 32 hrs. Much better week/weekend ratio. Makes you feel much more alive.
