My friends work with me so I don't mind it. Location isn't all too busy either. When it's slow enough we just go in the bathroom and play on a switch, manager joins us sometimes.
But goddamn the class work makes me want to die sometimes. I'm in my 4th year so what's keeping me going is the fact that I'll get my bachelor's soon enough, but I'll be taking a break before applying to a masters program. Just think anon, you'll get a nice job in engineering, get the money and invest or buy land, find a way to escape the wage cuck cycle and read as a hermit innawoods.

Fuck online classes, absolutely the worst way to learn and I recommend anyone who's just entering college or entering next year to check if their uni of choice will be forcing online again next year and to take a break instead. I've heard a few unis are considering it and let me tell you it's the absolute worst way to learn anything, being in an environment of other people helps when learning as it's a process your can undertake together, being by yourself in a room may work for some but for others, like me, can't learn from online lectures.

That's literally the only fucking reason, I'm in my 4th year too and couldn't find a fucking internship when I needed to the most because of the fucking pandemic. I fucking hate the online work and classes are fucking hell. I've gotten myself really wondering if it's all really worth it. My ex switched majors to finance and has a comfy job making bank and I want to blow my fucking brains out.
>>16843853
Yeah mostly, there's 1 of them I actually have to go. I feel like there's no fucking point on college anymore. I could learn all this bullshit from my home anyway without going into stupid debt, but hey, at least I get the funny job paper.

If you don't enjoy the process, try to find a way to combine the engi degree with getting a finance one, one of my teachers in high school used to work as an electrical engineer and designed printers for HP, and he said the people who worked in the company who understood engineering and another field(finance, law, etc) usually got comfy jobs for good money cause few people can actually work those positions.

I feel like it's too late for me. I don't have the mental energy to start another major right now. I've had 2 mental breakdowns this year and had to put myself together or else i'd hit fucking rock bottom. It's so fucking hard to even talk to girls anymore, I don't like the whole fucking Tinder thing, I like organic relationships and It's fucking impossible. I haven't had pussy in 2 years.

I'm sorry about the girl, I'd feel bad if my ex died. I don't feel hatred towards her or anything, she just got a better life after she left me which makes me feel like shit, but yeah at least I'm not a kissless vigin. But it really hits hard after a year and you start craving it. Fuck. I need someone to cuddle me.

I feel you, the girls I've dated in a past got me hooked on cuddling.
Just get a dog, that helps, and besides my life doesn't revolve around girls, if I feel lonely I just go listen to some music or read a book. If I'm going to be lonely at least I'll be having fun.
Hopefully this covid shit blows over soon, despite my aspergers I'm still very sociable some days, and every day I'm talkative. The lessened socialization is annoying. Osmosis of knowledge through interaction is a real thing that I miss.
