I recently started full time work, and I just don’t see how people can enjoy the grind. It’s only been a few days to be fair, and everyone at work is nice and even the boss is nice, so I’m not exactly saying I landed a terrible job for my experience. The pay is also just better in Australia so it’s not even the money that’s the problem. But how in the hell do people do this for years and years?! My job starts at 8, I get up at 6 to shower and make lunch and then drive to work in peak hour (or rush hour for you Americans) and then work all day, have a half hour break while the rest is on my feet all the time, then leave at 4:30 and get home around 5-5:30, have to eat dinner as well, which eating it and cleaning up after it takes about an hour or 2 depending on the food, then I have a couple hours free time before I go to bed at 10 in order to get a good nights sleep (not that I’m any less tired) and rinse repeat. Sure, I have the weekends, but that leaves no time for my Music Production goals that I have been working on before this job, it leaves me no time for my girlfriend, alone time, and I guarantee my family will always want something from me. How do you live like this? Worse, how do people enjoy such a routine?!
