And this is supposed to be living? It is slavery with extra steps
i cant believe this the way things are and people allow it. democracy is fricking useless.
I'd rather just live a traditional feudal system and serve a king or a lord if I'm going to be a peasant. This system pretends I'm anything but that
>I'd rather just live a traditional feudal system and serve a king or a lord if I'm going to be a peasant. This system pretends I'm anything but that
The system pretending it's not that is what allows the 'nobles' to get out of their end of the bargain.
Those Kings and Lords that peasants used to serve were expected to do stuff themselves like go to war, protect the realm, spend their money commissioning art, on religion, and alms for the people, establish a legacy for their name and land etc. etc. etc.
Modern richgays do NONE of that and they get away with it by pretending that you can join them.
they get to use their obscene wealth to influence the world to their liking and get none of the accountability
If only things were different in 1945…
Set aside money every paycheck to invest in a side hustle. Something to earn you passive income every month. It could be YouTube, stocks, real estate, etc. Just something to give you money outside of your work.
>dude just be a famous YouTuber!
Why not advise him to become a professional baseball player or male model?
You don't need to be a famous YouTuber. All you need is 1.5K subs to qualify to put advertisements on your videos.
All those Indians who make videos about how to fix your computer but have terrible English and have like 20K subs? They are making money off YouTube
no. one full-time job should be enough to live
not only that, one full time income should be enough to provide for a full family. just like it used to be.
you'll have to remove women and aliens from the workforce
>you'll have to remove women and aliens from the workforce
I didn't say it would be easy.
>no. one full-time job should be enough to live
Those days are over.
God i wish watching old movies and seeing teenagers working every summer then buying a car with the money saved up is crazy to me now.
And like most jobs it was mainly pointless work they made him do
>make the staff do cleaning projects when there are no customers around so that the corporate visits can go well and the general manager will get a good review
>fill out the daily logs (temperature log, facility inspection, uniform log, lost and found log, etc.)
>seriously a million fricking logs that none of the managers remain consistent with because it's soul draining
>all to get a good audit when the auditor visits so that the general manager will get a good review
>moronic schedule (close one shift, then open, then close again, then have a day off and open again the day after, etc.)
>get asked to come in when another manager calls out as if I have an option to say no
>get asked why I'm not giving out enough write-ups to the staff as if there's a quota to meet
It all goes back to working for someone and making them look good doesn't it
My job is very, very similar to this and I unironically like it. No one is a dick to me, and on the very rare occasions when someone truly sucks, they sort themselves out very quickly, and it's never someone who has any power over me. I have some pull with the boss to say "that one sucks, I'm done, I would recommend a term." I have a high degree of autonomy in a specialized function and I get on well with my boss. I even have a room that I like to think of as my personal office, I keep it autistically organized and clean, put a few little personal touches in the corner. When the higher-ups ask me how my side gig is going, I give a little detail, and they seem pleased with that. I go in, I do my shift and make myself useful, and then I go home and everyone leaves me alone. I actually got a bunch of raises in the past two years. I get my workout for the day so I don't get fat. I'm maxed out on vacation and I should really take more, they want me to. Like over a months' worth, and that's not including the sick time I never use. I have a 401k that I own outright and it has a fair chunk of change in it. I am very good at my specialized thing that I do and people say so regularly. The higher-ups know about this. Doesn't pay a huge amount, but that's fine because the work itself is pretty easy if you're halfway intelligent and able-bodied, which I am.
I quit a career field/lifestyle to intentionally pursue a 9-5 desk job. I got too old to do what I was doing. This will sound homosexual/like a larp but I got out of the military and did overseas security contracting and random work for the gov in the US before getting my degree. Now I have a office job and a little desk with a succulent on it and a desk fan. Lysol wipes, some hand sanitizer, organizer with sharpees/highlighters and a cup of coffee. Couldnt be happier.
Im also 36.
I see one possibility for a lateral move to maybe make more money and I might just study for that for fun (just so I have some other skill I can point to), but I know what crappy/shitty jobs are like and I have a very good thing going with this one. I regularly call mom and tell her honestly that I like my job. This makes her feel very happy. There's an obvious internal promotion opportunity which would be the real change, but I'm low-energy/beta and I seem to be good in the current role.
IMO you have until your early-to-mid 30s (as someone on the other side of 35) to do anything you want. Try stressful/high paying jobs, lower paying/chill jobs. Remote work. Travel. Move to a different state or country to work if you can. Do as much as you can to figure out what suits you before you end up wondering
>maybe i should have taken that job in Nevada
Or something
Im not making a ton, but thats by choice after getting out there and realizing location and stability is more important to me at this point. Get out there man, light the fires and kick the tires.
I'm older than you but thx for advice. I'm "comfortable" but I recognize the need to have one or two other abilities to point to that are undeveloped if something goes bad.
Ha. My bad. Being 36 I usually assume people are younger. Good for you.
>5 days of vacation every year
Do Americans really? I get 7.5 weeks of paid holiday a year
>commit a cool crime
>go to prison
>get a new group of friends that have your back
>literally free food
>cool prison drugs
>endless time to fap
>free anal sex with any man weaker than you
>no women telling you what to do
You have options.
i work like 6 hours a day and take two hour lunches then bike home in 15 minutes
my life still sucks
Its confusing to me they expect people born into this world to take away something good from life when most people are living day to day just doing this. Then they wonder why mental illness, depression, division of sexes, low replacement rate is happening.
>micromanaged all day by tyrannical boss
Damn... I feel you. My boss is overbearing. The only thing that keeps me going everyday is visiting the cute girl that works at a convenient store after work. Lately another worker invited me to smoke in the back and I enjoy learning new things about today's youth.
Based
yes, it is basically slavery. especially now when most people have to live paycheck to paycheck, owning nothing. all so a few people can continue living out royal lives like the old times, only without the blatancy (it is blatant though). anyone who worships this arbitrary amount of work hours like its a divine rule is a cuck through and through
i quite $140k/yr job to work for $60k. 8 minute bike ride to work. I set my own hours, 35 hours/week usually. no supervision. spend most of the day playing chess online and browsing the chan.
I work 60 hour weeks with weekends, evenings and nights and I end every single month in my overdraft.
Think i've managed 6 hours sleep per night maximum for years now.
*before anyone thinks my expenses are high. No, don't have time for spending on anything other than food as I don't have time to cook.
I'm just a bongland doctor on £40k per year whose rent is £2k a month.
i like my job
You like the people you work with and you believe they are just as happy as you.
I kind of like my job. I work from home most of the month and can wake up 5 minutes before I have to log on and go back to sleep as soon as I'm finished.
I fricking hate remote work. The lockdown converted us to full time remote and I became extremely antisocial. I used to frick coworkers all the time before the lockdown.
sure you did bro
I actual did this at my last job. I just didn't go in anymore. I assume I don't work there anymore, but idk
NO DON'T PAY ME A REASONABLE SALARY AND MAKE ME SIT ON MY ASS AND TYPE ON A KEYBOARD IN AN AIR CONDITIONED BUILDING NOOOOOO I'M GOING INSANE
>thank god i don't have a cushy office job anymore and can now irreversibly ruin my body by 60 doing hard physical labor for hours daily
did gen x really?
Sitting down all day in an air conditioned room is good for your body?
there is no law that says you can't exercise before or after your office job.
So is that a yes or a no? Why do you zoomers always communicate in riddles? Is it a twitter thing?
>get asked a simple question
>WHY DOES EVERYONE SPEAK IN RIDDLES??????1?
Who are you quoting? What is the answer to the question? Why are you zoomers so veganal?
Do you stand up in your house with the heat on when you get home?
Air conditioning causes the body to store fat for warmth.
>2019 was 1 second ago

Which one of you is it?
I get to dick around a lot at work but god dammit I'm tired of being there.
I started working for the railroad late last year. I like it so far.
Any experience necessary?
Nope. I'm currently going through a Signal Maintainer apprenticeship and no experience was necessary.
can you explain details about this job
What if I told you insane was working fifty hours a week in some office for fifty years at the end of which they tell you to piss off ending up in some retirement village hoping to die before suffering the indignity of trying to make it to the toilet on time? Wouldn't you consider that to be insane?
>have wasted 10 years since college at a useless job
>literally want to commit suicide every day how how boring and meaningless it is
>basically do nothing
>don't get paid much even in a very high cost of living area
>want to just stop going
>have completely non-existent self esteem, severely depressed, terrified of everything, too afraid to even try to look for jobs because I know that no job will take me since I don't have any personality or skills
its so fricking over for me. literally all i do every day is hope for death.
>its so fricking over for me. literally all i do every day is hope for death.
you could also try to do anything else but that would require willpower
>itt: men without hobbies complain about how rote their lives are and that they're forever alone bc they'll never meet a girl
no. video games, pornography, and Cinemaphile are not hobbies.
i actually do have hobbies, in fact its a job i make money from (sports refereeing). still miserable.
what sport?
women don't have hobbies to meet men. they have hobbies to meet female friends or bond with their bf/husband. women can get endless easy top tier dick off apps.
>women don't have hobbies to meet men.
yeah its so pathetic that men have hobbies to meet females. the average male is such a loser.
the average male expected equality to mean they would be thought of as good enough for women in the same women get thought of as good enough for men.
by existing
you will not meet women anywhere if you're not tall and conventionally attractive. you will meet women who will shun you and call you a creepy butthole.
I did this last week and they still haven't stopped calling me asking me to come back.
Imagine finding a girl who likes kung-fu, like you.
what was achieved by this? (by the characters within the film)
Living past 35 is clearly a mistake.
Did GenXirs really bully office autismos like Milton?
I literally did this a few weeks ago. No regerts
