how are you gonna live if you can't buy food?

What I'm trying to say is: nobody is forcing you to do a job that you hate. Nobody except the internalized worldview that you are only human if you can proof a professional career.

If you have no dependents, no pre-existing debts to pay, are preferably young, live in a country with a good economy, got enough money or access to a decent social security program, then the internalized worldview might be the main problem.

Not saying this doesn't apply to quite a few people, but there are a lot of others who don't have that luxury.

How about focusing on your own misery? Whats your justification to sit in a job that you hate?

I don't, I'm within the group of privileged people who can pick and choose. I work part-time as of recently and feel alright about my job. I assume the same goes for you?
