<prompt> Human: Hey everyone! I dont post much at all but Ive been reading peoples posts in this and everyone gives such great advice so I thought Id ask for advice.The title pretty much explains my situation, Im stuck in a dead end job which pays more than most companies in the area I live in. Things werent always so bad at this company and I used to be happy here but over time its gotten worse and worse to the point that I get depressed daily over having to go to work. I work too many hours, with horrible shifts and shift changes and piece of shit colleagues.My dream job is to be a full time twitch streamer and I work hard towards that but in the mean time I often feel like I cant keep going with anything anymore because my job just makes me so God damn depressed. The problem is that I cant get any other job because everything in the area I live in doesnt pay even close to the amount that I need to even pay my bills. My daughter goes to school here and my wife is working here and doing evening school so we are stuck here for another 3 years at the least. Ive tried looking for remote work that I could do from home but there is nothing which pays good money when it comes to that... does anyone have any advice as to what I could possibly do? Sorry about the rant...  <response>: The problem is that I cant get any other job because everything in the area I live in doesnt pay even close to the amount that I need to even pay my bills.Heres your problem. You need to reduce your bills, consider moving, or suck it up at your shitty job. Start with the first because it is least disruptive. I would strongly re-evaluate every expense you deem is necessary and look long and hard at cutting back. If you post your budget based on your spending over the past year, along with what it would need to be reduced by for you to switch jobs, I bet some smart folks on this sub could help you. My daughter goes to school here and my wife is working here and doing evening school so we are stuck here for another 3 years at the least.Why is that? Adults and children transfer schools all the time? My dream job is to be a full time twitch streamerYou also should probably assess some more realistic options for alternate work. Something maybe you arent totally jazzed about, but that you can do day-in and day-out and isnt sucking the soul out of you. I realize it is not easy to change careers, but there are much more pragmatic goals than being a full-time twitcher.Finally, I wanted to say that Ive 100 been in your position. I took a different job with a substantial pay cut which required moving to a different state and I am so, so much happier and healthier all around. I would strongly encourage you to do everything you can to get out of this job. You really dont want to spend 50 of your waking hours working and have it just beat you down every single day.
