How am I supposed to have time for hobbies if work kills me?

I always assume people mean what they say....

I take it you have reported many people to the police for threatening to assault or kill somebody?

I've never known anybody to say that!:eek:

What a strange world you must live in if this is a commonplace occurrence for you.

Wish I was! Instead of being sat on my !!!!! That's the one good thing about working at McDonalds (aside from the free "food")

You think of eating McDonalds as a good thing ?
Even if it were free, i wouldn't want it.

TBH, I find this poster confusing. It was only a couple of weeks ago that he both posted that he had been off two months with stress, and that he had also walked out of his job. Not sure which one it was still. And it would appear that being off sick with stress because he can't stand his job isn't the first time either - it's happened in 2015, according to his posting history. I'm not even clear, since he recently posted that he had walked out, whether this is a new job or the last one he posted about.

But OP, you need to get real. According to what you say about yourself, you have few skills and no qualifications; you decided against studying to get more qualifications because people on MSE told you not to; you thought about travelling but didn't; you are selling your flat but can't get a buyer, but might move away if you sell it, but don't think you could because you don't know anybody anywhere else; you have at least two jobs that you left because you couldn't take the stress anymore (including the current or last one which you took a pay cut for because you didn't like the stress of the job before that, and now you are complaining about your wages!)....And you are only 24 (that's right, isn't it?).

You may have noticed, but there seems to be a pattern here - nothing seems to motivate you. You are young enough to do whatever you want, and you have no ties to stop you from going all out. Instead, it seems that you prefer to look outside yourself for things to blame for the fact that you are going nowhere, literally and figuratively. And tired? At 24? Good grief, I am 59 (almost, in two weeks), work, have disabilities that cause excruciating pain - and I don't get tired. I work longer hours than you, and I have time for hobbies. And I am supposed to be retired! When my employer finally gets tired of offering me inducements to stay on "a bit longer", or I get tired of being induced, I have a list of things that I will be doing - I very much doubt I will notice that I have retired! Goodness grief, get a grip - you have an entire life ahead of you and you can change anything you are willing to work at changing.

My screen says that he posted at just past 6.00... if so, his journey to work eats up about three hours each day, so that would tend to wipe out everything else. However, the solution would be to look for a solution to the transport problem rather than whinge...

No, no, no. Basic logic. If he posts at 5 we can fairly assume that his journey takes no more than 30 minutes - so, not very long.

If it's six then all we know is it's no more than 90 minutes. You can't in any way draw a conclusion that it is 90 minutes.

Get a bike and combine commuting with fitness training?

Walking is as good for you as cycling the same distance. Cycling would only save him time.

You have to gamble with this band. Most times you'll come up short and end up entering the work talent competition each year and winning a few £££ in freebies. But maybe you'll make it big. But you have to try lad. Lack of energy and/or work is not an excuse. Just smash it out and figure out where you lie in the grand scheme of things. If you have true motivation then you'll happily practice around work and you may even do it to an extreme level!

He hasn't even learned to play the guitar yet.
