I have recently begun wageslaving this summer as an intern at a software engineering company. I get paid $15 an hour for 8 hours a day 5 days a week for about 3 months.
Even though my work is pretty easy and I'm making decent money that I can save, this is honestly soul-crushing... it's not the worst period of my life, but I definitely do feel constantly hollow, like there's a sinking feeling in my stomach.
Music sounds like notes. Books are just words. Films are random montages... etc. This is how depressing wageslavery really is after only attending class for 1-2 hours a day.
I am trying to cope by writing more and focusing on composing and producing more music, but even this becomes a slogging grind indistinguishable from the other daily activities I do to distract myself.
All I can do is hope for some inspiration to strike. A certain girlfriend or something. Idk.
How are you coping with wageslaving when it's THIS bad?
