DON'T LAUGHT AT ME FOR USING YAHOO ANSWERS. or...

Isn't working 8 hours so depressing? By the time you get home you barely even get to see the sun. What's the point of life if you have to spend most of it working? By the time you get home you're so exhausted, you only have energy to eat and sleep. Who has energy to even do anything on a weekday like hang out with friends etc, because work is so draining... Also, isn't 8 hours of work excessively long? It's a really long time. It seems to go on for eternity. Sometimes a minute can seem like an eternity at work. How can you enjoy life when the majority of it is spend working? And on the weekends I'm so tired from work I don't feel like doing anything... I don't have a tiring job, just an office job but it's like your whole life is spent working. How do you cope? But... He has a point. A lot of people don't get to live their dream work/job (or don't know) & they have to settle for whatever. What's the point of living if you can't even get to see the sun? You're spending most of your days awake working. You wake up and then work and then go to sleep. When you come back home the sun went down and you just feel too tired. The day is just about over. Feeling like you wasted your day. Repeat that the next day. Summer Days they can't enjoy. Nothing. Not even the work feels any good since that's what they settled for and they probably don't even enjoy it a bit. Life is just so unfair. To those unfortunate people, what are they supposed to do? That's wasting your life. Edited by StrawHatCrew, Apr 23 2015, 03:12 PM.

That's wasting your life. Salary sometimes comes at a price. And sometimes that price is 10-12 hour work days. I used to do those during project startup. It's not so much depressing as it is exhausting. I just figure that's part of growing up and starting a career.

Are you doing Studies alongside it? That's when it can become a huge problem. I can't even concentrate on one of them let alone two.

When I return to school then I will probably just work weekends, and maybe some evenings.

I work on a golf course right now.

Favourite Manga dat boi	This week I'm working Sunday 10:30am-7:00pm, Monday 5:30pm-11:30pm or so, Thursday 9:30am-3:00pm, and Friday 4:00pm-11:30pm. My hours vary, but I can change my availability when I want. I also do 16 hours of school alongside that. This summer I'll hopefully be working a full four or five days out of the week though. I don't mind 8 hour shifts. They drag sometimes, but it's worth it when it's over. My girlfriend usually works early morning shifts (6:00-2:30 or something like that), so she has plenty to do with her day.

My advisor is tenured and he only comes to campus three days a week. On Wednesdays he's consulting for some software company, and I don't think he even works on Friday. Three-day weekends. Sounds fun being a tenured prof.
