I can’t because I need 8 hours of sleep (non-negotiable for my gains)
My only option is to sink further into depression as I realize I’m a stupid Amerishart who doesn’t want to pursue his hobbies, I just want to waste my time browsing 4chan mindlessly

>super lazy, always hated waging
>waged through college for my dad in his company where I worked alongside illegals and lazy ghetto folk and crackhead whites doing building maintenance, basically all sort of random janitorial jobs like cleaning windows and replacing windows and cleaning pigeon shit
>did this when I wasn’t at college getting my (useless) marine environmental science degree and my 3rd mate’s deck license
>after college get hired by the man, but because the government is the government I spend half a year filling out paperwork
>went back to work for my dad in the meantime
>felt absolutely soul crushing to after college be working for my dad, living under my dad’s roof, eating my dad’s food
>the job felt meaningless, I was a janitor who commuted four hours a day
>felt like my who life revolved around being beneath my father
>eventually the man finished my paperwork processing and my background check
>got to my job at sea, work 80 hours a week, make a crazy amount amount of money
>enjoy the work immensely, get to see the world and I’m doing what I love
>because I’m always at sea and don’t need an apartment, my dad lets me keep my stuff at his place
>at 22 I’m making 6 figures at my dream job, and because I don’t pay for rent or food or anything it all goes straight to the bank
>put a thin science fiction veil over my maritime career and use it to write a science fiction book that acts as my writing skills warmup for my actual dream story
Life is good. 80 hours waging at a job you’re passionate about is 80 hours of luxury. Just hang in there OP, I promise it’s gonna be okay
