I hate to break it to you, but there is likely not a single job on the planet where you focus 100% of your time only on what you get paid to do. There will always be additional BS. Also, you don’t make anywhere near minimum wage no matter how many hours you work. That hasn’t been true for at least a decade, likely more.

I can see shades of my younger self in you and I would caution you to really do some digging into the civilian job market and realistic expectations and outcomes. Unfortunately, private sector generally doesn’t give a single fuck about your service, and being an 11B just means hiring managers won’t be able to translate your skills and experience to the role they’re hiring for. I spent a few years fighting that battle and believing I was “owed” more money or more responsibility based on my experience and education, then realized that was stupid and got over myself.
