who else is stuck in the wagecuck life?
>20 years old, never had a job in my life, dropped out of school at 16 and lived the good NEET life for 4 years.
>Even though I'm a depressed NEET I still manage to have a friend
>friend works in this local independant fast food place
>he puts my name down for a job without asking
>get a phonecall from the manager and get asked to come in for an interview
>I really don't want to work there but I don't want to disappoint and lose my only friend so I bite the bullet and go for the interview
>get the job
>the shifts are anywhere from 9-12 hours of constant standing, servicing customers, scrubbing floors, cleaning machines and lifting food and shit
>literally get one five minutes break in 12 hours
>they make their workers do loads of other shit thats illegal but it doesn't matter because it's just a singular fast food place owned by a family.
>have had back problems since I was a child
>constantly standing for 12 hours is killing my back, making it so bad I can barely stand when I get home
>i am experiencing the exact opposite of the "having a job cures depression" meme - mental health is worse than ever
>literally doing slave labour for minimum wage
>would quit but it would disappoint my family who are so happy I've got a job and actually consider me an adult now and are proud of me
I literally don't know what to do, this shitty slave job is killing me

There's a third option - Quit your current job after you find a better one. I'm pretty sure your parents won't be disappointed in you quitting a shitty fast food job.
I dropped out of college, I work 70 hours a week to support myself and my fiance. We have a kid due in August.
Maybe you could tough it out a little bit longer, but quit and find another job eventually. You're family won't be disappointed if you quit for a good reason (the illegal stuff), and find another job. Working sucks anon but we all gotta do it.

Getting ready to work third shift at a warehouse in my city. Fortunately I have forklift operation certification so it's not that bad.

>Working sucks but we all have it do it
Hahaha there are cucks out there who still believe this shit!! Let me guess, Jesus will come back down next Easter right? No need to worry guys, just the way it is :^}
I went to college and grad school, and now have a decent job somewhat related to my background.
It's boring, and nothing I do matters and I have to interact with people and I hate it. I wish I could afford to be a NEET.
one five minute break in 12 hours is fucking illegal, or at least it is in the UK. you should quit the job but don't go out with a bang just quit quietly so you get a good reference from your boss, youll be able to get a better job because you have experience and a reference i'm sure
