Antiwork

I agree wholeheartedly with anti-work but… how do I survive without making money to live and do what I want without the expense of my labor?

I’m 19 and I’m already exhausted and I already feel discouraged and my body already feels battered and overworked, I want to get out of the workforce and still be able to live on my own with my partner, I’m aware I could unionize with coworkers and go on strike but I don’t have leadership or social skills to do so. What could I possibly do?
