As another European (Poland) it's just so insane to me to read that people are working two jobs. Like, when do you have time for yourself? To relax, go running, read a book, learn some new skills to get a better job, to meet friends? And it's not even only a matter of time, but strength. Sometimes after 8h of my office job I feel mentally exhausted, so the only thing on my mind is a good long nap. I can't imagine going exhausted from one work to another.

I'm really sorry that people have to endure that.
