Need more work!

I have been working at remote startup for last 1.5 years which is at the tail end of its life.

I'm 24 years old and I feel like at I don't work enough. Being from a tier 3 college, I know that the only way forward for me is to work really hard. I got this well paid gig but everyone here slacks and does half assed work.

So fellow grapeviners tell me what should I do?

  1. Look for another job which will probably land me in another mediocre job.
  2. Work part time for someone else's startup (I REALLY don't mind not getting paid for this / paying peanuts). As long as I get plenty of work with other motivated folks. I'm open for such gigs if any of you folks need a good mobile dev. (Also open to be a full stack dev)
  3. Stop whining and enjoy the "work-life balance". I hate this option because full disclosure : I don't have a life outside work lol.

Hoping to hear insightful opinions from you folks!

sqrt(total no. of employees) do 95% of the company's entire work, that is soo sooo true

Getting increasingly bored of work at startup

So I am working at a startup for around a year now. Everyday I see, it feels, what am I really doing? Where is the life headed? Doing bare minimum or doing your tasks and fucking off isn't enough. It's expected that we outgrow cons...
