yep I feel like I'm cautionary tale for sure.
I do have a job I love, doesn't pay well though and when it's winter there is no work
it's basically a summer job...I'm 27 and have a fkn summer job!
I remember my ex-partner driving me to work once, we were in the carpark and across from us was a man I work with, he's probably in his 50's,
anyway I wasn't getting along with this guy, I told my partner all about him, I pointed and said "oh that's him I'm not getting on with"
he replied "imagine having a job like this at his age"
I started crying, asking why he would say that when I do the same job!! tbh he probably left me because I'm always crying.
When he said that, I felt so worthless, like my life really is pointless.
I didn't finish high school I have no GCSE's, I did some college but it's nothing great and never been to uni. Only ever had this job I do.
On top of all of that I have a criminal record, nothing insanely crazy serious, sounds awful though so I'm scared to apply for jobs.
