I couldn't live like that, I have to reach my dream which is winning an Oscar and I'm doin' everythin' to reach my aim, I know, kinda funny

[Guess_Who]

Gutawafang you overthink way too much. Just try to enjoy what you have. All those thoughts will take you nowhere.

[yoda you can call me]

I've never known what i wanted to do with my life as in a career. i'm not driven like that. But it is better to work than sitting on your arse all day. I'm willing to work shitty jobs, be thankful you have one, cause i apply for one every fucking day and i'm still Unemployed. 50 dudes chasing the same job in England atm.

I have an interview/observation on Thursday. In the email they sent me I saw my candidate number was #8, so there's at least 7 others going for the job, and with the time of day they're seeing me at it's likely there's more than that.

unemployment rates in Spain are around 26.7%. Probably one of the highers in Eu.

So noone get fussy when it comes to get a job.

Yeah, that's incredibly high. Is youth unemployment over there still above 50%?

Yeah I think it is, don't really know the very last rates, but at least a couple of months ago it was.

That's crazy. So imagine if we get picky. I'm happy with my job, it's good, but I know if I ever lose it who knows when I'll find another. One friend of mine went the other day for a job interview, there was 300 more people.

Good luck with that homie
I had an interview about a month ago which i tried to postpone cause i was going to a funeral on that day but they said that was the deadline. I had to go to the funeral, so i chose that over the interview. However, the company phoned me about a day or so later asking if i still wanted the job and i was thinking they must be desperate, i've got this in the bag. So i went there dressed to the nines, thinking i'm going to be the only one there, but as i was waiting, 20 other dudes turned up, lol. Still thought i had it in the bag, cause most of them where wearing casual clothing. The company said to us all that we'd start training the next week and they'd phone each of us the next day. so i was chuffed to bits. They never phoned so i phoned them and got the bad news, I was fucking guttered.
turns out, they'd been doing the same interview everyday for about 2 weeks so god knows how many people applied for that. The recession is still going strong and not just in England, like Guess Who said

Honestly, I think you need to stop whining. You're in a better position than most people on earth, as has been said already. I'm not saying that you shouldn't be depressed (well, nobody should be technically but depression affects everyone differently so whatever). But you're starting to sound like how a rich person does to a poor person, complaining about getting the wrong flavor of coffee or some shit. Find someone you can talk to. If not in your real life, then pm a member here who you get along with and trust with your problems. Just stop making a thread every week about how bad your life is, because it'll be hard for people to relate and try to help you out when in reality the things you're complaining about aren't exactly hell on earth, and are probably lighter than what some members have had to go through.

Hope you work everything out.

Sorry but I don't agree with everybody telling you to stop whining. I know exactly how you feel and I'm in the same boat. Idk about your other threads but as for hating your job and feeling like you'll never be able to fulfill ambitions and your passions I'm right there with you. I feel like the majority of people that hold normal 9-5 office jobs are this way as well. I know you put a lot of work and effort and TIME into school and everything that led up to your situation. Very sad that the last 10 years of your life ended up to this and I agree with you.

It's about taking risks and actually trying to do what you love instead of just talking about it.

I mean, I grew up well. Wasn't from a wealthy family. My studies was good. I was constantly the best class from Grade School to High School and I have a diploma.

And then I now have a job that I hate so much. Is it a normal thing for humans to hold a job they hate just to earn money and then work until retirement? And then die without fulfilling ambitions, passions, etc?

I feel so depressed whenever I wake up at 530am in the morning to go to work. I feel like I don't have purpose in life except earning this pathetic amount of money monthly and be sad about the stupid job.

Is it really a normal thing? Am I leading a normal life? Social stigma isn't it? I take the train to work. All I see are sleepy people and I think they're sad.

Here's some pep-talk from Jobs:



Oversimplified, of course, BUT, you should not think of your life as so limited.

Figure out what you want to do (what are you passionate about?), set up realistic goals, and then work super hard to realize those goals. A week consists of 168 hours. That's a lot. One spends an awful amount of hours doing nothing.

Look, there's nothing wrong with leading a "normal life", but if you are unhappy about it, change the way you live. You're a 22 year old living in a developed country in the 21st century. The range of opportunities - if you’re willing to work hard and make sacrifices - is enormous.

This, and that video was good. I love Jobs and wish he was still here.
