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 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] ZJBlank@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

Voyager is not allowing me to upload a photo, but I'll never get over this

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think of this comic frequently. Lol

Uploading comic below for anyone who doesn't want to follow the link.

(I'm also using Voyager. I know your instance has strict size limits on uploads, so that may be the culprit.)

Thank you so much for the assist. Yeah, this comic gives me a mixture of feelings. From sad to mad to sad again to disappointed to scared then sad again. Dead serious. lol

Do it like this but without any spaces:

I wasn't having an issue with posting a link, I couldn't upload a photo from my phone as comment

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.
