近日，一位00后小姑娘放暑假在青岛一家商场内做兼职，在接受采访时称，这已是她的第三份工作了，之前的两个工作一共干了四天，“领导说我不适合”。她说，自己现在17岁就有生活压力了，出来挣钱很不容易，后悔当初没好好学习。于是，微博上一个名为#17岁就有生活压力了#的话题火了。
Stressed by life and only 17: Chinese hashtag ignites debate
The fast pace of life and the impact that has on young people's mental health has sparked a huge debate across Chinese social media.
In particular, when a 17-year-old revealed her work stresses in a feature by China's Pear video website, the hashtag #17YearOldsReallyHaveAStressfulLife (#17岁就有生活压力了#) reached more than 33 million people on the social media platform Sina Weibo - China's equivalent to Twitter.
Since its broadcast, the interview with the teenager, who's on her third job this summer supervising children in a Qingdao mall, has been viewed more than five million times.
She's apparently not alone, with 5,000 users - more than 3,000 on Weibo and 2,000 on Miaopai - commenting and sharing their own experiences and advice.

"It's as hard to make money as it is to go to university," said one, and another commented: "She probably isn't aware yet that university freshmen are absolutely exhausted."
A fellow millennial[1], who works part-time, complained that she was always tired, and added: "I have to go to university too, but there is so much pressure at university!"
[1]millennial: a person who was born around the time of the millennium, that is around the year 2000 2000年左右出生的人，千禧世代，即00后
Others pointed out that the effort is worth it, commenting: "I believe this girl will not regret it in the future," with another writing: "It's hard to make money, it doesn't get any easier in the world of adults."
On a more light-hearted[2] note, a few memes have been circulating, including this one which says: "People born after 1990 are so stressed their hair is falling out!"
[2]light-hearted: happy and not serious 心情轻松的，愉快的
It was a fairly light-hearted discussion.

And they can now add sleep deprivation to those worries, after the Global Times in July shared statistics showing that the average length of sleep for Chinese people has dropped from 8.8 hours in 2013, to 6.5 in 2018.
据最新的中国睡眠指数报告显示，中国人平均时长为6.5小时，夜里要醒1.8次,比5年前少睡近2小时。“95前”主要是因为职场迷茫，“95后”主要是因为感情受伤，90后共同的特征是焦虑。
