I havent tried it yet. But with the way things are going, I may not have a choice but to put myself through that.
Even at 30 hrs a week, I feel like absolute ass, and my autism's symptoms get worse.
Slack the fuck off, mostly. Steal as much time as you can, shit on the clock
Im a manager i cant slack off. Heres hoping i can get a job outside customer servicd

damn, in my experience managers get to slack off more than regular workers usually . Without doxxing yourself, what kinda job is this?
Yeah retail managers get to slack off more than like, anyone on earth. You go to the office to do “paperwork” or “scheduling”
If possible: try to get away from the idea that nothing works without you. Be as transparent with your coworkers as you can be. Work is always easier if done with and not against your coworkers.
It's also not "slacking off" if you have a chat with your colleagues about TV or some shit (on the clock of course).
I ask myself this too, I have amazing working hours and am pretty much left on my own (academic research) but it feels nearly impossible to do more than 30 hours a week. I think a lot of people in white collar jobs just don't actually work that much because if you're actually thinking and stuff it's really limiting in the amount of hours that are even possible.
Try to find a bullshit office job that actually isn't 40 hours of work. You might be there or on the clock for 40 hours but you're really only working half that.
There isn't a one-size-fits all solution imo.
Something that might help is to develop a routine and find ways to not think about / spend time on certain things. People do meal prep on Sunday for exactly that reason: no need to think about or prepare food for the rest of the work week. If you drink coffee, set it to automatically turn om in the morning. That kind of thing.
In terms of the hours, well that always sucks. The only true "escape" is white collar stuff where despite being salaried and expected to do 40 or so you only actually work 15 and appear to be working for 25 while reading, browsing hexbear, etc. Sometimes the job itself and the people there can make a huge difference. Some of the jobs I've worked have been 80% just hanging out with friends while we did various kinds of manual labor. If your job isn't like that, this is more if a "keep switching jobs until the environment is better" kind of rec, which isn't immediately helpful but is still true.
Get a better job. I felt like shit and like I had no free time working just shy of 30 hours a week on one job, but with my current job I work 40 (sometimes 50 or 60) hours a week and feel fine. 60 is tiring no matter what you're doing but I'd still take it over 30 at the other place.
You get used to it after 2 weeks. Try eating good nutritious meals, don't skip breakfast. You will have more energy.
