I heard this opinion many times and I couldn't disagree more. I hated school and I much prefer my adult, working life. In fact I feel like my life only gets better as time goes by.

Granted, I'm privileged to have a well paying job I actually enjoy, which probably makes a world of a difference.

Fr, hated school so much. At least you get paid for work and there is substantially less drama and bs (though I guess this depends where you work at).

Mostly same. I was horribly depressed and anxious throughout school and had no friends...so I definitely wasn't seeing my friends every day. And when you get home you always had even more work to do.

Now, I get paid well, I love chatting with my coworkers every day, and I tend to enjoy what I do, even if it's monotonous or stresssful at times. And with my job, it's physically impossible to take work home with you.

I do miss having a gajillion days off like when I was a kid and I miss my mom making dinner for me and cleaning up after me lol. But for the most part, I don't think I'd want to go back. I did well in school and wasn't bullied or anything, but those times were still really rough mentally.
