Do you (anyone/everyone) hate your job?

I had a first session with a counselor. I told her that I don't hate my field of work but that I hate my current job because of difficult coworkers, certain conditions, etc. She told me that everyone hates their job. Jobs are "terrible, broken, damaged systems." She said that I don't need her help coping with work & that working with her won't make me feel better. 

Umm....well, I do think that many people are dissatisfied with their work situations. So, I can see where she's coming from. I also think that I could be coping with it better than I am. I.e. some people are able to leave work at work, but I don't.

I' don't really know how it works tbh so I'm not sure if you can just, "find a different one" (counselor I mean) but they can fuck off, that is definetely not how counseling is done

Well, a lot of counselors I've met have their own issues or aren't a good fit for me. 

But the point was that it made me wonder if everyone just hates their work as much as I do.

A lot of people do, but not everyone. I don't think it's something you should simply endure because others do... just doesn't sit right with me

Not currently planning to quit my job. It's still fairly new (2 weeks shy of 3 months).

Thinking about having another session with the counselor to make sure she understands how stressful work is, that I struggle to get through the last few hrs, etc. And see if she still says it's normal.

That sounds so fucking nasty oh my god, how did your roommate see no issues here?
I'd say stock up on air fresheners and maybe an air purifier if you can, if you can afford it (maybe wring some money out of your roomie as well unless you want full ownership of the appliances for later moves and such) invest in a mini fridge, mini dishwasher, and combination microwave (most common ones will have a microwave, grill, and hot air function with some other functions maybe that can be used in place of an oven) until you can afford to get the big appliances fixed (or just keep harassing the landlady about getting the appliances fixed if they're under her ownership), or find a floormate who will allow you to use their appliances until you get yours fixed, idk if the stove is any good but there are portable electric stoves as well that are good to have as a backup

And also let your roomie clean out the entire place, make them scrub out every corner, they picked this nasty place they get to clean it <3

Just whatever you do, do NOT combine bleach with ANY other (cleaning) chemicals!
