As the title says. I dont know if there is a special day for rant or whatever, so im sorry for that if there is.
So, me (22M) just finished summer with my first big boy job doing 40+ hours per week (i always did a bunch of part-time but never one full time job) and i just feel like… I had no summer? I legit did nothing other than work this summer. I worked from 8 to 5, so 9hours, but paid 8hours because they like stealing my time for a “1 hour unpaid lunch break”. My mom (52y.o.) keeps telling me thats its fine and normal for that lunch break and that i am technically off work so unpaid… Yeah mom, go try to do whatever you want when you have the work truck, are wearing work clothes and is lost in the middle of nowhere, 2hours from home, with no cellphone signal, im really enjoying my free time here! Anyway, so i just feel like i did jack shit for myself this summer and both my parents keeps telling me “its adult life, get used to it” and I'm like…. Why should i get used to having no social life, no me-time, no going out with the friends because i was exhausted after work and my off-days were when my friends were working… Like why are both my parents ok with that? I hate it, and this subreddit made me realize how fucked up it is.
Rant over. Thanks for reading lol
