Stay coo’, pigeon army.
No you cannot fix your entire life at 2am. Go to bed.
eye-opening tumblr post for me included the words "people are meant to be burdens" as in humans rely on and support one another and it's not a bother it's our purpose; to love and be loved in return. so if you ever think you're being annoying just remember we were made to love and it's going to be okay

I worked a job in a kindergarten for a year under a full-time volunteering programme after finishing school. It's marketed as a good way to get experience and social brownie points. While I don't regret doing it and meeting some nice people along the way, I was expected to do almost the same work as the teachers there for 2-3€ per hour, which kinda feels unfair. My superiors would also rub it in my face that I'm only a volunteer and don't deserve to get a half-decent wage because I'm not educated for the job. I don't want the same salary a qualified teacher gets, but maybe enough to sustain myself, at least? I was forced to live with my parents because I couldn't even afford social housing and the programme doesn't offer accommodation.
I get it, it's volunteering, but it seemed a little weird for me to do it full-time with no time for an actual paying job. It just kinda felt like another way of getting cheap labour for the social sector, which doesn't have nearly enough workers, instead of employing more qualified people. If I had to stay home because of sickness, the whole day would need to be restructured because we didn't have nearly enough people. Guess it's all fair because I'm a volunteer.
Maybe I'm too nihilistic, but the future doesn't seem very bright when it comes to jobs. I don't know.
