I work for a local delivery company that delivers sandwiches and pastries and things like that. I get paid about $700 a week which doesn't sound too bad except this company offers literally no benefits. No health insurance, no PTO, and no way to move up in the company. I recently have had some unexpected health issues and its been costing me an absolute fortune.
I'm in lots of debt going to college and I really don't know how much of a pay decrease I can manage as I unfortunately live in an expensive part of the country. I work five 10 hour days usually and if I need a day off I have to come in and work a Saturday to make up for it or I get in huge trouble as no one can cover my route. I'm just becoming very burnt out
I haven't had a vacation in almost 2 years and my mental health is really struggling, I recently got out of long term relationship and haven't had any time to take care of myself and I feel myself declining more and more rapidly as the weeks go by. I dont know what to do at this point other than look for a new job but since I don't have my degree yet I'm struggling to find jobs with liveable wages as a college student who lives alone.
This is basically an incoherent rant but I just needed to put it out there somewhere. Hopefully things get better and I can find a job that doesn't work me like a dog and offers me some decent benefits, but I'm not expecting much
