my boyfriend works as an analyst which means very crazy hours. he gets to work around 8:30 and on average gets home at 9. some times he doesnt get home until after midnight. he has only been there for 2 months, but last night he kinda had a break down and asked if its all worth the money. his bosses are not nice and will yell at hime if something doesnt go their way. what can i go to make his life a little easier? i want to support him and back him in whatever he wants to do, but we are living on his income because im trying to finish up school. does anyone have any ideas?

No job is worth that kind of abuse. In time, it won't just tear him up but your relationship, as well. Your boyfriend should consult a lawyer about his rights. The employer shouldn't be able to require him to work 12-15 hours a day.
Edit:
Also make it clear you support him even if he needs to find a new job, even if it's "flipping burgers" for a while.

How much longer do you have school? It is awfully hard to support two, even though the long term payoff is that you will have a great education and can get a better job. The best way in the meantime to help deal with the stress is to see what helps him cope and make a STRONG commitment to DO it. Don't just do what YOU feel like doing... see what HE wants. Guys major needs involve sex, companionship (yes, that means car shows, watching football with him - may be boring stuff to you - but try to get interested in it) If he wants sex, give it - that is a major thing for guys. If he needs to go do something with his buddies, don't hassle him about it. Make allowances here and there - maybe take on more of a share of the housework, and try to let little things go. Let him know how much you appreciate him. Write little notes and love him and cook him dinner! Man food, that is - not pasta - MEAT!
His bosses should not be yelling at him. That makes life really rough. Hopefully sometime he can take the experience he has gotten at this job, and get a new job. Until then, coping with it will help you guys reach your mutual goal of achieving your education.
Good job for all you've done so far. Y ou guys will make it through this!

Unfortunately that kind of job is always going to be like that---long hours, little thanks.
He should think hard about whether he would like to change careers.
What can you do? Not much--be supportive, don't burden him with useless crap and the occasional bj won't hurt ;-)

Check with the employer if he can take some work home? That will help... and yes u will have to support him but reducing his work at home (If he is a helping hand)....

Anal sex always works for me! When my beauty spreads her cheeks it calms me right down.
