I hate my job and I'm annoying everyone about it!! - MONDAY MAILBAG - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

The JTrain Podcast

It's MAILBAG MONDAY! 💌 where he takes on emails, messages, and DMs from listeners seeking his unfiltered, honest perspective. His take? He’s not a therapist but offers something just as valuable: an unbiased take with no eye contact required!

We learn first what is going on with Jared! He's diving into the complex feelings that come with trying to “make it” in a big city while balancing the small-town mentality. He reflects on chasing big dreams and the pressure to constantly grow, sharing his goal to make his next comedy special iconic, despite knowing Madison Square Garden might be a lofty ambition. For Jared, this high-stakes chase feels exhausting at times, especially compared to people who seem happy with simpler lives in small towns. The question arises: is striving for success making him happier, or is it just adding stress?

An email where they are looking for a job but annoying everyone about it! From a listener brings up classic feelings of being "left out" when visiting old friends who seem content in their local circles. Jared connects deeply with the listener’s high school-style anxieties about belonging, inclusion, and questioning their own life choices. He explains that even in adulthood, we never fully escape high school social dynamics—feeling left out or judged is universal. His advice? Reach out to these people again, enjoy the simplicity, and maybe embrace being the “new kid in town” as a fresh chapter rather than a source of insecurity.

As the episode wraps up, Jared highlights relatable issues like hating a day job while working toward a dream. He compares it to his own struggle with writing a book, where some days are rewarding and others are draining. His takeaway: it’s tough to keep going when fulfillment feels distant, but persistence might just lead to something great.
