I (M20) worked at a supermarket for 1, then 6 months, full time, 40 hours a week (4 shifts). I can confidently say the last few months of that employment was genuinely the worst point in my life. I spent all my time working, tired and mentally unstable. Long hours and with a controlling, manipulative boss who treated me like a replace bag of flesh used to put items on a shelf. During this time, I frequently thought about offing myself and literally hated my life.
I quit the job, and now I'm unemployed doing my 2nd year of university. I am not looking forward to being forced to work and become a little cog in the capitalism and consumerism machine. Now, I get to pursue my interests in anthropology, history, languages, and religious studies at university.
Short is: Is there a way for me not to work every day for the rest of my life?
Ideally, without being homeless and being labeled a failure by society. (Guessing answer is no)
