Antiwork

Nearly quit my job an hour before my shift (vent)

I’ve always struggled with my mental health and school/work has been a struggle for me ever since I can remember. I remember when I skipped school at one point and they found me and picked me up in a cop car. I went to court for truancy in highschool, I’ve been fired for shit attendance and after all these years I still can’t get myself together. I never understood how people just “do it”. Of course I’ll hear just about anyone complaining about their day at work or whatever, but they show up every day without fail nonetheless. How?? Am I just selfish and lazy? Did my parents raise me that way? Or am I just cynical? Capitalism feels fucking inhumane. I’ve avoided this subreddit for a while.

Did my parents raise me that way? Or am I just cynical? Capitalism feels fucking inhumane. I’ve avoided this subreddit for a while. I didn’t wanna go through these posts because I know nothing will ever change and I’ll be working till I die. I’ve always wanted to do music (and everyone will insist you shouldn’t because there’s “no way you can make a proper living in that field”), but my ENTIRE life I’ve limited myself to that dream and now I feel stuck. I genuinely don’t think there’s anything else that would make me happy (or at least not make me hate life lmao)
Anyways. That’s that. I’ll be quitting my job soon wish me luck
