Sure, nobody wants to do it. But it's better to bust your *** and earn your money to pay your bills than be a lazy pos in your parents basement or on unemployment stealing taxpayer money. Working that job was one of the few that I felt true satisfaction when my paycheck came in because I knew I earned it.

Oof thats a lot. 45 is hardcore. Most I've done I'd say was 14 straight and it was brutal lol. I did work at a nuke plant for a bit too but that was an internship. Was def a fun experience though.
