  • I'm looking for a job right now and this is exactly what I'm terrified about. I couldn't have put it better, it's like I wrote this. I even calculated that I'd have about 2 hours free time per day as well.

    I want a job because I want to be independent, I want to move out and really start my life. But at the same time I really don't want a job for this exact reason. The only job I've had before was only a 10 minute commute, only 3 days/week, and I was able to slack off about 80% of the time, and even that I found tough. I'm never gonna find a job like that again, so nearby or where I could slack off that much, and I'm gonna need a full 5 days/week job to be able to afford to move out. I'm worried I'm just not gonna be able for it though, that I'll break down. I already find life hard enough just trying to force myself to get up early, go to bed early, exercise, diet, shower, clean, etc. Nevermind adding 8 hours work, and 1-2 hours commuting, per day onto that. Plus I'm gonna need to do way more housework living on my own: grocery shopping, cooking, washing clothes, paying bills, etc. I'm not suicidal or anything, but honestly I don't think this kind of life is worth being born into, it'd have been better just never to have existed at all.
