I am feeling very down about my work situation. As a disclaimer, I am 29 weeks pregnant, very emotional right now, and trying very hard not to be dramatic.

I started a new job in July, coming from a job at a national non profit that I absolutely loved for 9 years that had turned incredibly toxic toward the end. In my past position I worked from home and had the support of a work family who I had grown to know and love over many years.

This new position is a government position so it's a big change culturally. Since July I have tried my best to learn this new culture, fit in, and do a good job. My boss is hardly ever around, will often cancel our one on ones last minute, and is the kind of person where trust has to be earned.

I learned last week that they are moving me from my office in the "newer" wing of the building to an office in the "older" wing that is a converted storage room with no windows or access to natural light. I asked if the move could wait until I go out on leave and the answer was no. I'm having a hard time not feeling like the guy in Office Space who gets moved to the basement. I'm already so tired from growing a baby, how am I supposed to stay awake working in essentially a dark storage closet?

What would you do? My inclination is to start looking for jobs when I go on leave but I don't know if I'm going to have the energy or capacity for it. This is killing my motivation.

Thanks for listening!
