    From 6am to 6pm every action I have to take is in service of the job I have. My alarm goes off because I have to be up for my job, I need to shower and do all my morning routine stuff for my job. I am out the door just after 7 to have enough time to snag a breakfast sandwich and some bottled tea for breakfast, for a 45 min commute into work, work for about 4 hrs, get an hour for lunch where about 10 minutes is spent walking from my desk somewhere nearby for food, about 40 minutes for ordering, waiting for and the eating food for the same ~10 min walk back to the office for another about 4 hrs of work before the ~15 min it takes to pay for parking and leave the building for another 45 min commute putting me back home at about 6pm before I change into my comfy clothes. Now. I have less than 4 hours before the exhaustion finally fully sets in an I go to sleep. And some dinner would be nice so that’s another hour or more.

      That’s not a job anymore mate, ngl.

      I hope it brings you an extremely deep sense of fulfillment, joy, and satisfaction.

      Or it pays you enough money you can retire by the time you are 30.

      Or it’s one of those “1 month on 1 month off” kinda jobs.

      Otherwise wtf.

        I broke down my daily schedule. Jesus fuck read the entire fucking comment.

        This is the reality of a corporate job.

        If I didn’t have an 8-5 with 1hr lunch break job I wouldn’t be setting my alarm for 6am to give me eblugh time for my morning routine, I wouldn’t commute for 45 min each way, I wouldn’t spend an hour for lunch close to the office.

        Yeah the job on the clock is 8 hours but it’s 4 extra hours of doing shit to get ready for, and going to and from between home and the office.

            Cool, if you know my schedule so well, then where are those 5 additional hours in the day? Because I’m not seeing them in my schedule.

            And do you even know what the word antecedent even means?

              Yes.

              I don’t know if you just straight up didn’t read what I wrote or what, but if you go back a reread my proof posts, you’ll see nothing you wrote has anything to do with anything I actually said.

              And still continues to be so lol.

                No, I and everyone else in this thread read what you wrote and all of us are calling you out as a dumbass because you don’t understand how every additional step in a schedule acts as a time sink that robs hours from the day.

                  Not everyone, but yeah yall are echo chamber’ing hard

                  Some people gotta grow up and stop blaming the world for their problems. If you seriously don’t have time in the day, you need to stop and assess wtf you are doing wrong or assess what things that fundamentally are personal time that you have categorized as a chore.

                  Like already several people in this very thread have categorized going to the gym as some kind of chore/non personal time.

                  If you are reclassifying what is obviously extra curricular personal time as not counting, you have probably fucked up your outlook on your day.

                  You likely are falling prey to feeling like you have to do the things you used to love, and slowly things that used to be personal time have become chores in your mind.

                  And that is why you no longer feel like you have time left in the day.

                  If you are super busy trying to come up with a snippy reply, just fucking stop and actually, really go sit and think about this.

                  Everyone does this and it’s nothing to be ashamed of, but everyone has to periodically stop and assess “have I ‘chore’ified’ stuff in my life that I used to live?”

                  There’s almost always something that fits this bill, and that’s quite often a very large chunk of your missing time in the day.
