I'm so done with working and trying to live in a capitalistic hellhole.
I had a meh job in my field with an hour commute through heavy traffic every day that gave benefits. The doctor and his office manager were petty and rude at best, and manipulative and screaming at worst. I gave them 6 months of my life in hopes they'd change, literally any aspect, and they didn't. So I started looking around. I got calls from one place that desperately tried to get me to come in and I did. The pay was better and the doctor told me “don't worry, I'll give you 3 days a week at 1.5x your current rate.” They were only a half hour away in heavy traffic.
I got screwed, more or less. Those “3 days a week” turned into two, maybe 3. For at most 7 hours a day. The pay is still up there, but it's not enough. I went from working 40-72 hours a week to 20 in the last two. I have another job trying to get me to come out, but the equipment they have barely functions and is older than I am. But the pay is a little worse and the commute is a 10 minutes further than my current place. But neither offer benefits and I'm potentially disabled, I've just been told I can't apply because then I can't try to buy a house.
I'm just tired. I want to be old enough to retire but I don't have anywhere near enough to retire.
