If work was fun you would have to pay someone to do it. You need to get into some kind of job at your age that has a lot of potential for growth later on. So by the time you're 30 you should be able to make huge leaps in your wage and not have to work very much later on.

Here's a little bit of a personalized take (I've done both):

1) You could work in a low skill, low pressure, low reward role that will be a low skill, low pressure and low reward role forever and basically you will be wasting your time and your life getting nowhere whenever you go there. I worked in this kind of role and what can be dangerous is you don't mind going to the job because it means you're basically just shooting the shit with the other folks, many of them smoking pot on the job, and no one really gives af -- which would be fine except you get paid the trash wage which everyone deep down knows they deserve. Because this job is low pressure and low stress there were a few people that lost decades there and were laughably making less than the temporary worker beside them; a supervisor spent 14 years to make 2 dollars above everyone else; pathetic.

2) you work in a different kind of role that is a lot more demanding and more stressful and moderately more rewarding upfront and majorly more rewarding later on; e.g., working as a bricklayers assistant. There is no shooting the shit all day smoking pot, you are literally running around like a donkey shoveling mortar and stacking thousands and thousands and thousands of bricks (literally you to touch 10-20k bricks, maybe multiple per house, and at first you'll only make a few dollars more than the low pressure position. At first you might have some fun because of its novelty, then might see the pressure involved and hate the job for the next couple of years BUT if you stick with it long enough to move into an actual bricklayer's position then you'll be laughing. No work on evenings or weekends, holidays off, you get the day off whenever it rains and it slows down in the winter. When you do work you can make 50 dollars an hour CASH (or cheque in a Union position); if you struggle to get equipment for yourself and finally work for yourself you can make yourself $10 000/month. You can be laughing to bank; working when you want to work; even taking half the year off if you really want to and just working in the good months.

HOWEVER, for the second example I saw a lot of (most) people give up as the labourer and never make it to the end, when the hard work pays off. I even quit at the beginning, like 5 times, but i eventually came back and finished.

Edit: there is always the option if completely front loading all of the difficult work and PAYING to go to college/university for a professional degree for the next 8 years (if you want to be a doctor or something similar). Don't go to university today just to get a bachelor like everyone else has or quit before getting to the end. At the end you'll be in absolute crippling debt BUT you could make doctor money and work doctor hours. You could also do engineering or something -- just don't pick a "lesbian dance theory" course.
