She works for the government doing income support for disablity. She pays her share of everything, I have no complaints about that but she just can't understand that there are other ways in life besides hers it seems.

You're fucked.
She's basically telling you she disrespects you for not having a career which brings social prestige. When she gets the chance, she'll leave you for someone who does have such a career. Lawyer, doctor, politician, bureaucrat, etc. She wants someone who will impress strangers at parties by merely stating his job. She wants people to look at her and her partner, and say "Gee, what a lovely, successful couple!"
She's going to break up with you. It's just a matter of time.
