How are all of your parents coping with never having grandkids?

I make 1450 in SSDI and make 1100 working 80 hours every months on top of 150 food stamps and public housing 400 dollars. I got a offer at the union electrician office for a job but I’d be working crazy hours in a physical nightmare job and not sure if I can work 12 hours everyday for life but I would be making 9 grand a month after expenses. Should I try or should I just be happy with what I currently get? According to ChatGPT after expenses I am in the top 20 percent of income earners.
