I'm 16 right now. 17 soon. So far my work experiences have been god awful, both of them for various reasons.
I'm scared. Really scared of how the standard in workplaces in general is and how low the bar is set, and how low wages are and how high rent is and how expensive everything is.
I'm not saying I don't want to work. But I definitely do not want to work as a wage slave and struggle to make ends meet at a dead-end job in an uncomfortable work environment.
What is there to do??? I'm gonna go to college and get a degree and probably end up with a bunch of debt in student loans and then be totally unable to buy myself a house for years if ever?
Don't get me wrong, I don't really have full knowledge on what life will be like later on, but based on my own experience and the things I've seen here or wherever else, the outlook is bleak. How do we change this?
