But everyone else around you has this great lunch. Or even having to choose between eating that day at all or putting gas in your car so you can work and get back home? I'm getting pretty tired of living like this and I don't know what I am doing at this job. I drive about 65-85 miles a day now. So that means I'm filling up every 2 3 days. I really hope things are going to start working out because at this rate I don't know whats going to happen.

Dude, I'm in the same friggin boat except I'm 30 and getting married next summer. With a freaking Master's I'm making chump change, just got passed up for a promotion because my boss is insane in every sense of the word and hired someone who is way too over qualified, 4 people have quit in the last three weeks, I'm doing all of their jobs in the interim, and got denied today for a temporary salary increase to supplement the increased work load that I'm doing. I also just completely missed the hiring season for my profession and will likely have to wait an entire year to even start looking for new jobs. Everyday is struggle to figure out how I'm ever going to afford a house and kids.
On top of that, I had to sell the car I've always wanted to my little brother after 6 months of ownership because I couldn't afford the payments. Do you know how embarrassing that is.
However, like everyone says, you have to cling to things that make you happy, and for me that is my fiancée.
