What an entitled lady. She want to ... cook her own meals, work out, and see friends.

I'm with the 9 to 5 girl. People dunk on her because it's like "welcome to being an adult sweety" but that's just because we're used to the bullshit. Modern work culture takes way too much time away from our lives

Person: * complains about job *
Worker drone: wow, you think ur 90 minute commute is bad? I travelled 4 hours on horseback to work graveyard shift at the blowjob factory. I work 90hrs a day for 3 corn kernals an hour and you don't hear me complaining😡

"100 years ago grampa worked 100 hour weeks in the abestos mine"-  Yeah and they beat their bosses to death in front their families until the conditions got better

I'm old enough to remember when "Librarian, pull that shit up" was a joke

We're all team 9 to 5 girl. It sucks. Even if you don't think it sucks, what a miserable time we're living in that so many people enjoy ripping into someone that is clearly stressed out and having a bad time. Empathy is dead man

The people hating on her are saying "yeah, life sucks, welcome to adulthood", which shows they agree with her, but their point is "shut up and stop complaining", which isn't a solution to anything.
Are you really happy that you take pride in having a shitty work-life balance? Does it make you feel good about yourself that your life sucks? It makes no sense. It's almost Stockholm syndrome.

35 year old washed up twitter users are really dunking on this chick like they didn't invent the word "adulting" when they were her age.

Dolly Parton's "9 to 5" reached number one on the Billboards in 1981, 42 years ago.

Don't let anyone tell you previous generations didn't complain about work. And at least back then you made enough to buy a house.

The librarian is slowly turning into NLs Jarvis lmao

NL having good takes on the 9-5 girl is giving me life.

1:30 holy shit, I’ve never heard someone laugh like a prize wheel before

if you're against 9 to 5 girl you probably think landlords should get tips

My 8-5 didn't really bother me until I got a taste of that beautiful work from home life during covid. Now it's fucking miserable going to the office everyday.

I forget where I saw that a study found that every extra minute on a commute over 30 is correlated with 1% more job dissatisfaction. So it does sound extremely reasonable that a 90 minute commute would make you feel like shit

9-5 girl is straight spitting. Shit is traumatic when you first jump into it

The thing that people forget is that the 40 hour work week is that it was invented when often only one person per household worked. It was only worked by the man, and he had a wife who would cook and take care of the house for him. Now, both people in a relationship have to work and therefore have half the time and energy to take care of chores, and way less time for hobbies and enjoying life. And of course that's assuming you have a partner to help you, a lot less people are getting married now and are having to shoulder it all by themselves. Not to mention we are doing this for smaller wages than ever. The 9-5 girl is right.

I think people need to appreciate that people didn't stop working 14 hours a day, 6 days a week by "sucking it up and dealing with it". The few rights you currently have at work are due to people being so fed up with their conditions at work that they unionized and directly fought for the wellbeing of them and their family. If you crap on someone for disliking the current system, you're not being grateful for how "good" we now have it, you're insulting the people who got us to this point.

I think the 9 to 5 girl just simply recorded her version of the realization that everyone who has a 9 to 5 has had, where you just give up and go "Guess this is my life now so I dont starve to death"

Going to work in the dark and getting off when its dark again is genuinely soul destroying, man.
