Worse.

I feel like I've wasted my wife's life and am setting my kid behind.

Stuck in a job with shitty pay and shitty hours but I'm struggling to change careers. No other industry respects my job experience, no other job in industry would have better hours, and I'm old enough (32) that I can't take a huge paycut for a few years without drastically altering our family's lifestyle. And my wife doesn't want to move for a few years, so I'm fighting everyone else in my same situation in this same small city for the shrinking pool of jobs, just trying to get my foot in somewhere.



I feel for you. I'm close to retirement myself, but for young people today, I see a fairly bleak future. Automation and liberalism will reduce good paying jobs as time goes by.

I'm kind of in the middle of my career at this point. 21 years in and probably about that to go unless something changes. It's kind of depressing to think I've been working for this long and I'm only about at the halfway point to retirement
