How the fuck can I cope with this? Wageslavery seems like a sort of hell. When I see people say stuff like "spend 2 years minimum in a job bro, any shorter and it looks bad" it seems absurd. Spending 2 years of your life on shit?
I feel like I'm possibly already failing to appreciate what I have now. Lots of free time because only 18 hours of work a week in a menial job, living wiht parents who literally like me living at home because they like me (though they want me to get a job obviously), living in a small city with two universities (so at least I can daydream about getting girls, not that I can), lots of time to go to the gym...

one of the common engineering subjects that makes people think you're smart because they know it's important but they don't really know what it is but if they were actually non ignorant then they'd see you as stupid for not taking maths or physics
Not software engineering

Just imagine what it will be like once you have to start working full time. It's what you're feeling now x2. I wish I got my shit together and devised a plan to escape wage slavery when I still had free time instead of fucking around. Don't make the same mistake i did.
