When you're younger, all you have to worry about is going to school, coming home to play, quick do chores before mom and dad get home!
And doing it all over again the next day.
I always wanted to be independent and "grown up". When I turned 16 I got my first job at Wendy's. My first day my dad told me this is your first day of a real job for the rest of your life. I rolled my eyes and continued visioning the dollar signs I was ready to have on my own. Wendy's didn't last long, wasn't my thing. Neither did justice for girls. I got an administrative job right away and it fit perfectly. When I turned 18 I thought I was plenty old and moved to California with my boyfriend.
From there I decided I was going to become a pharmacy tech, my days were school from 6-10am then work from 11-9 pm. Never bothered me one bit.
Now I'm married, I have a beautiful home my husband is my best friend, and our doxie is my world. I work in a hospital inpatient pharmacy as the controlled substance technician. My job is very busy and very detailed oriented. Plus i decided to go back to school for cosmetology. So work from 630-300 then school 5-10pm
Similar schedule but TEN times harder!
0 time to have a decent shower, house is always messy, my husband misses me as I do him, and my doxie favors my husband! I don't get to study because work is so busy, and I make mistakes at work because I have 0 extra time to get things done.
When do you throw in the towel ? When do you say enough is enough ?
