For me it was the opposite. It was when I dropped out of school failing a four year bachelor and started work in a factory. It really got bad after a couple years, when I just couldn't take the braindead work and the horrible company culture anymore. Got my trucking license, but after a couple years of that, I got the same loathing for the job and the culture. Now I'm back in a bachelor, hoping for a better workfield. But we'll see how long that will last.

When I started school, it was like I had a target printed in my forehead. Kids were relentless, even when I changed schools. And I was/am fat and ugly, which means people saw the treatment as justified so there was no pity.

Kids are cruel like that. I hope you're doing better now
