If you think college is bad, wait until you have to work.

I sympathize, but a 40+ hour work week is so much worse.

Still, I hope you somehow find a way to be happy.

40 hours is not bad, especially if you have decent coworkers.



100+ is brutal especially if on a salary.

You don't want to give exams or presentations? Are you a teacher? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Then it would make sense.

I have been warned by old coworkers never to take a salary for that reason, and it's advice i might take.
But 40 is still bad if you'd rather be elsewhere and you're spending over half your time awake commuting and doing something you hate. Going in to work while it's dark, getting no sunlight for 8 hours (office with no windows), and then coming back home when it's dark in the winter is fun, too.
Remote work (if i could find it), I could probably handle better.

Coworkers do make a difference, though.

I think my real problem is that there's no reason offices have to be such harsh and bleak places. But management would fight me every step of the way if I tried to make things more pleasant. Just little things, like lamps with shades instead of overly-bright overhead LED tube lights (to replace fluorescents).

I think I might have some autistic sensory overload thing going on. Another thing is, sometimes I just want quiet. Coworkers would want to play music all day every day.
On days that I got off early for one reason or another, even just shaving one hour off was the difference between having energy to do things I wanted to in the evening and being dead.
Every day I went to work at my last job was a mildly traumatic experience and apart from not having income anymore I actually feel better now that I'm not working. Although I still know I want and need to find a job.
"It could be so much worse" doesn't mean that we shouldn't all aspire for better conditions.

Depends on the org and industry. Salaries can mean infinite work, but it can come with job security and career progression. The majority of higher paid roles above 100k are salaried I think.

There were times when I made a bucket load on hourly rates but those roles are the first to be cut when there is a downturn.

If you have a seat on public transport then you can sleep or read or listen to music or zone out. 30 minutes is probably the ideal length if possible.

Damn, my parents only had 10 min commutes back in the day and they complained about it. It did mean they spent more time at work I guess.

A lot more jobs have flex between office and home now.

Depends on the office really. Ours has different lighting zones and break out rooms with different lighting levels. Its mostly open office though which has its own issues.

The staff that have hot desks seem to be happier than the ones with designated desks... I guess because you can move to the best location available at any time?

Its not will power or anything, its more routine and habit. When you get into the habit and routine then it works. The trick is finding the way that helps you create constructive routines.

There is a difference between <not liking to work for 8 hours a day where you don't get to choose the starting hour> and <not liking to work>.
But yes that is one way to put it if you wanted to reduce it down and ignore the sentiment which is simply "I felt trapped and not listened to at my last job when I suggested cheap solutions to some of my problems and got shot down."

If I wanted to not suffer at all anymore I'd just kill myself. But I'd rather try to make things a little better for me and everyone else instead.

A direct drive in my car was 30 minutes each way for me. To get to my work by bus here with our fundamentally flawed public transit solution would be a four hour commute each way. If I were in a bigger city maybe that would be a bit better.

Yeah; still hard to find them here but I'm happy that it's not pre-covid trying to find one at least.

That sounds nice. I'd like that a lot more.

I'm confident I'll eventually find something that at least ticks some of those boxes. Just not going to be fun in the meantime.

You sound like an entitled cunt, I reduce every argument you make because every argument you make is reductive.
