Podría ser una expresión coloquial guatemalteca, y no estoy familiarizada con ella, pero creo "es difícil" es lo más cercano. La expresión coloquial más parecida que se me ocurre es "es un fastidio".

En Honduras "la bruta" es la muerte, así que tiendo a estar de acuerdo con Malila, incluso si es un poco exagerado "es la muerte andar de aquí para allá" en el sentido de que es un verdadero fastidio mortal...

The word Bruta could means silly.

Sincerely yours.
