Taking a break from my mental health to afford rent

Anyone just get mad emotional and low key ready to cry when you are heading into work because you are so exhausted working 8 hours a day? I wouldn't work 8 hours for myself if i was self employed so why am I doing it for someone else?

[–] const_void@lemmy.ml 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yep. Also isn't it strange how every job fits into 8 hours of work every day?

I fucking wish, I’m stuck doing 11-12 hours a day. It’s bullshit.

I don’t mean this as some shitty “my job sucks more than yours” flex, more just to point out that we’re all getting fucked a little differently

What would you prefer 5 x 5 hour days or 3 x 12 hour days? Or or 4 x 6 hour days? Keep in mind you get paid for your 5 x 11/12 at the moment so you would have less money

This is relatable in a painful way.

Klaus Schwab approves your commitment to further helping the economic growth of the bourgeoisie while throwing your life away and accelerating environmental degradation.

Yes, when leaving my back is to my work.
