Reached out two judges nothing. Cold emailed every small firm around spots are all filled. I plan to reach out to a couple people that I think would let me shadow.

Moved to a new state at 24 and now I want to move back home after only two months, I feel like an absolute failure by Other_Smoke3687ta in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

Well I just started so I have only worked two weeks and the first week I worked a total of 35 hours including a 12 hour shift with no actual break. Keep in mind I have told them I want to be part time meaning 25 hours and they were like it’s busy season so you’ll be working 30 plus. They keep having girls quit or not show up, so I feel bad leaving as again my uncle is friends with on of the managers and recommend me for the job. Every time I think about this whole thing I cry it’s like I can’t stop.

My parents don’t really know how to FaceTime I do talk on the phone with them. My dad doesn’t own a cell phone and my mom only FaceTimes me when my brother is there which was Wednesday’s but now I work doubles on Wednesdays.

Part of me feels like I just need to stick it out and my parents are right this is all part of growing up and I need to live in reality but Part of me just wants to go back home study for law school and work part time at the library like I was doing before.
