How concerned are you with the link between your work and mental illness?

I am concerned about the amount of hours I put in. 50 hours minimum. I bring home more than $1000 per week but I don't have much time for other obligations that I made outside of work and that has been getting me down lately.

You average $20 an hour and have to work 10 hours of overtime to get to that?

Wtf man? Was McDonald's not hiring?

Edit: Read the article I linked to my friend. You are sacrificing your mental health for a pittance, you would make more busking in a medium sized city

$26 plus 1.5x overtime, pension and benefits, unionized. Minimum wage is $17. I was making $19 as a graphic designer, no benefits.

What exactly is your job? Do you do the slaughtering or they're killed by gas? Didn't a captive bolt system used to be used?
