I feel like my life is spent working and I'm just 21. I thought this age was suppossed to be one of the best times of my life. How can I have fun now while I am single if most of my life is spent working? I work on Monday's and Tuesday's 8:45-3 and on Thursday 8:45-6:30, Friday 9-5 and then almost every other Saturday from 9-2. The other women that I work with are always taking days off yet I have to continue to come in everyday. It's very exhusting & by the time I get out I need a nap. I just want to have fun and not have to be tied down to work. I'm sick & tired of coming home everyday seeing my 19 year old brother sitting at home all the time doing nothing. He has no job & I hate busting my butt while he is at home everyday watching tv and on his computer. I'm also tired of always seeing my perfections and not seeing any good in myself. I feel like people bring me down all the time and make me feel bad about myself.

Kudos to you!!!!! Trust me - you'll feel a great sense of accomplishment and that you're earning your own way , when you grow up you'll appreciate it. You will be the one who won't have to worry who's gonna take care of them. Working this much won't last forever, but you'll be so much better off for it! Go Girlfriend!!!!!

It is unfortunate that we have to work so hard to make a living. But everything we need or wants does cost money. Unless you want to be on welfare. You have wonderful work ethics and that is good for a young person. You brother is special, lets not go there. I am proud of you for working so hard. Take a nap when you need too. Also, take some time out for some fun. You do need to enjoy life. Go to a movie, go out with friends, take a bubble bath, buy a CD. It does not take that much to treat yourself to some happiness and fun. You are a good person. Stop trying to kill the joy in your life. Find it where you may. Don't become a work-aholic. You will regret it.

I have been in a similar situation since i got finished college. the first job i got i was working 70 hours a week and i only had time to sleep and shower when i got home. Luckily, i got a better job with more normal hours but i have decided to go back to school, so once again i do not have any free time, which means no social life, but that really does not matter because I stopped hanging out with a lot of my friends because they were just like your brother, completely worthless. I am completely unhappy with my life but, you just got to hope it will change for the better in the near future. If you are feeling bad or just want some one to complain to, just write another question or you send me an email, i will listen.

It's good to be responsible, but you also need to have some fun. Do you NEED to work the hours that you do? Your schedule really is not that bad, you could take a nap after work and still have time to do something fun! Maybe you should try something new, with new people. Good Luck!

Go to college and study something you really enjoy so that work does not feel as much like work. And you will be able to make a better wage with a better education which will also make you happier. Your brother and others will end up being jealous of you.

Go have fun, explore talking to people, get you hair done, bit of make up and put on your best swimsuit and go to the pool and sit by there with an exotic drink. Get a life do it now! And stop transmitting bad signals...

Just think in a few years you can take a rest and go out and have fun and everyone else will be busting *** to pay back their bar tabs.
