Oh ouch, that happened fast since you started the thread

You could work on an assembly line for a temporary thing (I've done it too! Holy boredom Batman! I have huge respect for people who work in factories full-time.) Sometimes making money while you sort things out is just what is necessary. Get the crappy job to help pay the bills, and keep looking/planning out for something better. It's also why I suggested a hobby - it's something more meaningful to make life better while working at the crummy job.

It is nice to have the clarification that you DO chores in the house, just that they aren't up to her standards. That's a huge difference from what it sounded like in your first post. If one person is doing the chore the second person really has no right to complain - they could do it themselves if it's that big of an issue for them.

And FYI - I've spent two years of my life working at really s***** jobs. I learned a lot about myself from them, and they helped pay for things. It helped motivate me to get to the job that I wanted to have and I appreciate my job a lot more because of those experiences.
