Millenials and Burnout

I don't have much time to talk about my life, but I just wanted to say I read this article about millenial burnout, and I felt I related way, way, way too much with the scenarios depicted here. The lack of satisfaction of a job well done, the constant concern for money, the need to feel like I am missing something that should be done despite how much Michelle says I did in a day...
I take break times too (the post I pushed aside was going to be about me ranting about how I waste too much time with the Switch), but I don't feel like I've rested enough. I don't think I feel like I've ever rested enough and I'm always full of anxieties.
Maybe once Michelle has only one job it'll be easier for her, but I get concerned about her load still because she doesn't want to go home since it adds miles to the car and it's more effort for her to drive home and back to pick me up.
I can't really blame her, sigh. If this doesn't help ease her life, then I might consider quitting soon as well, ease of it be damned. Buying a car for this second job is not worth it when I'm only using it for this job and taking into account that it's only getting me 100 a week.
Welp, a proper post will be made later on. Sharing this one because the article really felt so revelatory to know that I wasn't the only one that has been feeling this for so long.
