Comment on Ethics and rationality of suicide

One very significant difference between having to put up with parents and having to put up with a boss is that your boss doesn't live with you - outside of work hours, you don't have to answer to them at all.

If you think you're going to want a 4am bedtime, don't apply for jobs that start at 8am. You do have a choice in that matter. Sometimes it's not an ideal choice - if your preferred job is one that does require you to be there at that hour, you might have to decide whether your preferred bedtime or your preferred job is more important to you. The important bit is that this is your choice to make, though, and that isn't changed by the fact that the choice is less than ideal. You can choose to go with a less awesome job, if you want to go with the more awesome bedtime, and that is the important bit.
