Occupational Slumming
Getting a job so bad it's like a punishment, just to avoid the real job and the chance you might actually be a total disaster at it.
I’m a janitor now because my real job was too stressful and I had no idea what I was doing.
I took a job at a restaurant just to get away from my boss and my life.
I’m slumming because I can’t handle my real job and my real problems.
