You can sacrifice in other parts of your life so you don't need to work a 50 hour 70k/year job

Live in a tiny place in a small town. Work with your hands. Get rid of stuff that costs you money. Cook all your food. Sell you car even. A traditional life will trap you in a traditional job

I see

If your current work schedule doesn't give you any free time to do more than what you stated, you may want to work on a plan to get a job with better work/life balance. Work at your current place as long as you need to in order to build savings and experience, but have a plan to move to a job that gives you more leisure time (ideally a job with 8 or less hours a day and weekends off).

Once you have that type of job, it's all about having hobbies. Plan out hobbies that result in tangible results. What I mean by that is don't just settle for watching TV or playing video games. Find a hobby that will have you complete a project of some sort. Write a novel, train for a 5k, learn an instrument, practice a new language, volunteer somewhere, etc. I find that those kinds of hobbies add meaning to your life and helps break up the monotony of work/sleep/work/sleep.
Yeah, after today I definitely don't want to make a career out of this

you don't. you put your nose to the grindstone and work your fingers to the bone.

ignore the nosebleed and bony fingers
I did that today trying to show bosses that I'm serious about this and all I have to show for it are sore kidneys and lost house keys

Ten hours a day doesn't give you enough time or energy to do anything else. I would look into reducing hours or finding another job.
Yeah, it doesn't everything hurts, I nearly passed out, high school bullshit infests this place petty tribalism bullshit from people ages 30 to 50s and they will work you like a slave and now I have 57 minutes to myself before I have to go to sleep to do it all again tomorrow, I wanna quit, I wanna quit so bad, but I can't, I swore to myself I'd try to last at least a month, so instead of letting them ride me, I'm gonna do my best again but not to the point I'm actively deteriorating if they call me lazy, so be it, if they shit on me so be it if they fire me so be it, it's only the first day of my second week there and those low reviews all came true, which really disappoints me because I really did want to like this job, I was excited for it, met some good people there,tho and a whole lotta assholes
