I can sympathise :(. I spent the first six months of my job just working and not really doing anything in particular with my evenings - I was getting pretty unhappy about things, to say the least.
What worked for me was to just force myself to work anyway - I bought a laptop, installed a clean system with no games, and started going to the library every day after work. It took a few weeks, but I eventually started to feel like I was getting somewhere again :)

I bet you're still in college! :)
Believe me, it doesn't make a difference what you do. I've got a financial job and I hardly do any programming at all (the odd excel macro), but I still find it hard to muster the energy to work on games when I get home. Working 9 to 5 takes forever to get used to...
However, that's all changing soon...
Very soon.

I have perhaps a chance to get a lighter job there now as it seems like a lot of my friends has found better jobs otherwhere.

Heh, my mistake.
So, do you mean to imply that, (seeing as you don't work at a programming job), you come home in the evenings all eager to work at your games? _________________ http://www.distractionware.com

You shouldn't - if you don't like your job, save up a bit of money and take some time to find one you like! Life's too short!
Also, a foundry? That's a really random place to work :) _________________ http://www.distractionware.com
