Good evening everyone,
I came home from uni mid June and have been working in a full time summer job since then. I've had lots of jobs in the past, but this is my first full time job and although I'm grateful for the work (I live in the countryside so there's nothing to do anyway) I'm finding it very draining.
How do you guys cope with spending so much of your time at work? I only work 8 hours a day, but it's more like 12 hours between leaving the house and getting home, and it feels like I have no time at all to do the things that I enjoy.
I imagine this is one of the principle reasons people say you need to find a job you enjoy because you do spend so much of your time on it, but I'm interested to hear what those more experienced than myself have to say on the matter. How do you find time to fit in fun, work and sleep?!
My parent's find it quite comical when I come home exhausted, eat dinner and head up to bed at 8:30 but I find I really need the sleep.
