I don’t want to work a low paying, hard labour job anymore

Sorry for the poor english. I hope someone relates. I tried talking about this with some friends most of them were unsympathetic. Most of my friends have good careers or are working towards having one, personally I was never as talented as them and always had to struggle more in life due to poverty and other personal issues. They dont seem to understand that working a low wage hard labour job is awful and extremely mentally and physically taxing in the long term. It deteriorates you life in every way. I explained that I come from a poor family and most of us worked hard labour jobs and saw the consequences of that on our health.

Sorry for the poor english.

I hope someone relates. I tried talking about this with some friends most of them were unsympathetic. Most of my friends have good careers or are working towards having one, personally I was never as talented as them and always had to struggle more in life due to poverty and other personal issues. They dont seem to understand that working a low wage hard labour job is awful and extremely mentally and physically taxing in the long term. It deteriorates you life in every way.

I explained that I come from a poor family and most of us worked hard labour jobs and saw the consequences of that on our health. My dad got a serious injury from his work and a family member got a permanent medical illness from his job. We could rarely afford something nice because of the low wages . Low wage physical labour is just extremely though and neither I nor my family wants to see me go through it again.

Most of my friends didn't care, they said that I belonged on the bottom because I wasnt as smart as them or talented as them. They know about my past struggles with school and they say that I am supposed to be struggling for life because I am not as good as them while they advance their careers and would never do a hard labour job themselves. I wonder if they would still think that if they were in my position?

I don't deserve to suffer because I am less talented than them. I don't deserve to have a shitty life because of it. I can't believe so many people just don't care anymore.
