because even if you have a soul-crushing job, apparently it's too heckin' hard to enjoy life afterward
it's just a fricking tragedy being a handsome, healthy, physically fit, intelligent, straight, White man with a middle-class income in a prosperous Western society in the 1990s
I only get 5 hours to enjoy myself after work, less if I cook or have to do some household jobs/errands
I miss being a NEET, I want to make money and early NEET retire, also wait for my parents to die so they don't do their b***hing "YOU GOTTA WORK, ITS JUST WHAT YOU GOTTA DO"
>Oh no, a comfy office job that requires me to just be there during a time where housing is cheap and opportunity is endless, how horrible. I'd much rather breath in carcinogenic fumes and pave ash-vault outside in the summer, that's living.
The moron writers of this movie should've had to work as a labourer on a construction site for a year after writing that bullshit ending.
if you read up on it, judge was pushed hard into sciences and higher education and worked as an engineer for a little bit. absolutely hated it. Ive done construction and currently hold an office job. Doing construction, i never needed 'mental health' days. Office job is cushy and pays more, but the urge to call everyone fat frickin moron is sometimes too overpowering, so i start to miss my previous life. I get the frustration and pointlessness he feels, still rings true today. Im almost positive TPS is an acronym my employer uses too
I don't get why you would want to be a manual laborer over a white-collar, the pay is worse, you have to get up earlier, people think less of you and you end the day exponentially dirtier and more exhausted.
i get up at 5 for my office job, they dont have enough parking, so if you get there past 6 to 6:30 you wont find a spot. Plumbers, electricians, HVAC, carpenters can all easily charge 80/hr. I make 36. They can also chose their own hours as independent contractors.
Carpenter here. It's good making 50 bux an hour because by the time I'm 40 both my knees will be blown out and I'll need to retire twenty years earlier than a tax accountant.
Only redeeming feature of trades is being able to be a contractor and not have to work for a boss. When I worked in a supermarket or as an apprentice it was hell.
>Wow, isn't it great apprentice-anon. We're going to stand around doing nothing for 5 hours and charge for a 12 hour day >I don't know...It's really boring. Can't we just finish the job and go home >And do what? Read books or something homosexualy? Let's listen to Use Your Illusion Part 1, and then Part 2, from beginning to end again
if you blow out your body by 40 youre doing something wrong. I hear this all the time and see it with my father, but he smokes, drinks, insists real men have a beer gut, rarely goes to a doctor and when he does, ignores their advice. There are farmers that remain spry up till their 70's. If you're a healthy weight with no vices you can handle this shit into your 60s.

Most of my family are low IQ plumbers. The ones who aren’t constantly in pain are strangely enough the ones who don’t weigh 300 pounds, wore their knee inserts, aren’t alcoholics, and unlike my uncle dont brag about how they carried entire hot water heaters into basements without anyone assisting in the lift and also went into their business for themselves and outsourced all of the heavy lifting to younger staff.

farming is easier on the body then any trade, because farmers perform a variety of tasks. its the repetitive motion that fricks tradesmen. Farmers don't spend literally dozens of hours per week on their knees- plumbers do.
anyway, the whole "my grandpa lived to be 95 and was a brick layer his whole life!" thing is nonsense. What determines how well your body functions past your 50s mostly comes down to genetics. yes good diet, stretches and exercise help. but 99% of people start to break down past 45, regardless of their lifestyle.

that doesnt address what i said at all moron, what the frick are you talking about
I unironically think its not even a matter of white collar vs blue collar work. I think the fact one doesn't realize anything tangible to the world or any value to anyone makes the work miserable. I had a summer job working for a township filling potholes and taking down trees 8 years ago. The guys that do that get to drive around their community and fix real problems you have daily. That p1othole that ruined your rims the other week? Bill gets to tell you he took care of that for you. No one is going to thank Ted for filing the companies earning reports, not anyone that matters to Ted anyway.
i wish i had a office job instead of shifting boxes for 8 hours straight in a warehouse with no air conditioning
>Oh no, a comfy office job that requires me to just be there during a time where housing is cheap and opportunity is endless, how horrible. I'd much rather breath in carcinogenic fumes and pave ash-vault outside in the summer, that's living.

As someone who has done blue collar work until I graduated college and then did agency recruiting (basically sales) out of college before taking a cubicle job during Covid, I assure you being in a windowless office in a meaningless job that brings almost no value to the real world is one of the worst things in the world.
How did Western society adopt this fantasy that work is supposed to be satisfying and fulfilling your dreams? Civilization needs trashmen, construction workers, menial laborers, custodians, grave diggers, shit shovelers, clerks, servants, etc. Those jobs aren't fun, but someone has to do them.
90% of people across all of human history have worked jobs that they disliked to varying degrees and/or suffered immensely performing. That's life. You work to satisfy your material needs and seek your spiritual and emotional needs elsewhere.
>work to satisfy your material needs and seek your spiritual and emotional needs elsewhere.
There is so much time and energy left after work. Most of that I used up for some extra chores (with the exception of weekends).
all the problems you complain about in here would be fixed with socialism and allowing workers to control the means of production
>work should be wonderful and based and immediately gratifying and equal today much more than it was a hundred years ago because uhh... it just should!
Nevermind the crazy amount of technological progress we have made in the last decade alone. We should definitely be working more today than medieval peasants. And wages definitely should not have increased by 6% over the last 50 years.

I never said work needed to be fun and a romp through flowers, but work doesnt have to SUCK. It shouldn't make you want to have a nice day, and it doesnt have to. Yes, even trashmen, custodians (which I was once) and shit shovelers should have their occupation looked upon with respect and be paid fair, livable wages.

he has a really shitty work life balance. His boss called him on a Saturday and a Sunday. I make sure that I join a company where work life balance is prioritized and I’ll never be b***hed at by upper management
I did this once with my old boss. He let me off the hook, but then again he is relatively "chill". I will probably get an earful if I did that in my new place.
I started wagecucking fulltime 3 years ago and it honestly ruined my life. Everything seems like a waste of time. I stopped volunteering. Slept less. Began to feel numb to reality. All creative energy and motivation drained away. I make 21 bucks an hour as a factory wagie, up from 15 when I started. I worked hard to learn everything I could. Still a waste of time. I want to quit. I want a work from home job so badly. Nothing feels real anymore. I've slept 5 hours a night for 3 years now. I'm probably permanently brain damaged. I was gonna finally quit but now I'm scared if I do I'll think about my oneitis all day and it will ruin my NEETing as I work on my projects. I want a work from home job but I'm too tired to study when I get home. I want to die in my sleep, my hobbies are losing their allure, I'm a 29 year old virgin and my life feels genuinely pointless. It's my own fault but I understand how this guy feels. I also have mild tinnitus due to 5k hours exposure to 70 dB hissing air and no one else wore earplugs so I didn't either. I wish I'd stayed a NEET. Currently trying to find a way to move with 2 trannies who work part-time and don't own cars and walk to work and supermarket so they live off of 1k a month each.
I can't. I literally cannot even get fat girls on POF to frick me. I'm 5 foot 11 thin and white I have no excuse. I'm jsut that ugly I guess.
>NEET---->Factory
are you fricking moronic?
just get an IT job
why in the world would you go from NEET to a factory job?
Because I was 25 and been out of work a year so I was desperate for a job. I fell asleep standing up a few times so I started drinking coffee cause it was free at work. I hated coffee, it's for women, but now I like it like a good söy. All my coworkers are subhuman homosexuals. Now I have tinnitus cause I worked there 3 years and it wasn't that loud, it was like that hissing air from a sawdust cleaner but much quieter so I never worried about it, I thought the earplugs was for if you were using them so I just covered my ears near those and didn't worry otherwise. September 2021 after I'd been there almost 2 years in first noticed the tinnitus and now I'm fricked forever. My only hope is that years of using QTips pushed earwax into my ears and caused it and maybe getting them cleaned professionally will help but deep down I know that's not it and I'm fricked. My mind is fricked. I cannot imagine a life where I work 8 hours a day and still do what I want. I start fricking seething at 8 pm realizing I need to go to bed in 30 mknutes or else not get enough sleep. I cannot believe 90 percent of the population lives like this. I was not cut out to live and I knew this since childhood which is why I lived under the mentality that I had terminal cancer and 18 was my death date. I just got to procrastinate an extra decade. But once reality hits I'll probably domerip because I don't enjoy life anymore it's just a fricking shell of what it was now. I took 2 vaccines so hopefully the myocarditis takes me in my sleep soon. What little of it there is.
I looked at CompTIA and anons said it meant you drive around fixing boomers computers.
I'd do ANYTHING for a work from home home job, I've wanted one since day one of my factory wagie job when I realized I made a mistake. I wanted one since 2019 before they really existed. I wish I'd quit in 2020 and gotten a WFH home while they were still in vogue and I hadn't damaged my hearing yet. Worst thing is I make 46k now so I'm scared of making any less.
the demand and pay for low level IT shit has skyrocketed after covid
if you get some comptia certs you can get a cozy job for more than 46k bro
you only drive around fixing boomer comps if you go into business independently

I bet its not ugliness, but more your dissatisfaction with your life that seeps into your profile. It's a turn off to women. Quick and dirty fix, strip your profile of most text except the bare basics and keep it lighthearted at that, throw in a picture of nature like you hiked or some shit, and you should be able to roll in some fatties.
i was born with tinnitus
in addition to the constant background ringing every once in a while one of my ears will ring VERY loudly for like a minute and i'm effectively deaf in it
my lifestyle doesn't help either, i've never worn earplugs at a concert and think those who do are pussies (even though its objectively a good idea)
if there's a lot of background noise sometimes i can't understand what people are saying
i'm only 28 and i have the hearing of a 60 year old sailor
>Currently trying to find a way to move with 2 trannies who work part-time and don't own cars and walk to work and supermarket so they live off of 1k a month each.
Lmao WTF anon
What do you do? How do you support yourself? My dream in life is to work part-time again. It's the only thing keeping me going. No woman will ever want or respect a man who doesn't work full-time but who gives a frick none of them want me anyway.
I work as a janitor at a hotel. It’s an easy, stress free job. I have zero dollars left at the end of the month. No savings. I don’t care, i enjoy my living.
The thing is, when i worked full time i would have these moment. Every time i was knee deep in someshitty work task i would thing the same thing: ”this is not worth the money. It is not worth it.”
same tbh. im a museum security guard after doing IT and electrician apprenticeship work for years, and the pay is half what I was making at those jobs but I literally get paid to just walk around and talk to people occasionally. as soon as i clock out i completely forget the job exists until I clock in again. i havent been stressed from work in years.
You guys do work at your job??? I just spent most of my time shitposting on Cinemaphile(nel) or watching youtube. What the frick else are you doing for 8 hours? Bossman need to pay me way more to use all that time to work lmao.
and you cant prove me wrong
in the movie the main guy said something like "why should I work harder to help the company when i dont see any of that extra money." When the workers own the company, everyone benefits.
>If you and your moronic ditch digging friends were in charge things would be different.
Yes. If things are done differently then different results occur.
Time, the quality of time, and the compensation of time. All of it accruing to an impersonal machine and its more or less arbitrarily guardians & managers.
I quit my accounting job to go back to cooking in restaurants like I did in college because I couldn't stand how boring it was and missed the adrenaline and yelling. Over the years tho it does get tiring, but saved enough to buy a food truck and live comfortably and can pay my mortgage. Probably would be making a lot more money if I stuck it out, but I look forward to going to work most days and never just waiting to go home.
Found a whole bunch of service industry/retail/lifty wagies and office drones trying to cope. Hell yeah bros, if you had his life everything would be golden, or you have his life and everything is. Keep on keepin' on, don't stop believin'

Now I have tinnitus cause I worked there 3 years and it wasn't that loud, it was like that hissing air from a sawdust cleaner but much quieter so I never worried about it, I thought the earplugs was for if you were using them so I just covered my ears near those and didn't worry otherwise. September 2021 after I'd been there almost 2 years in first noticed the tinnitus and now I'm fricked forever. My only hope is that years of using QTips pushed earwax into my ears and caused it and maybe getting them cleaned professionally will help but deep down I know that's not it and I'm fricked. My mind is fricked. I cannot imagine a life where I work 8 hours a day and still do what I want. I start fricking seething at 8 pm realizing I need to go to bed in 30 mknutes or else not get enough sleep. I cannot believe 90 percent of the population lives like this. I was not cut out to live and I knew this since childhood which is why I lived under the mentality that I had terminal cancer and 18 was my death date. I just got to procrastinate an extra decade. But once reality hits I'll probably domerip because I don't enjoy life anymore it's just a fricking shell of what it was now. I took 2 vaccines so hopefully the myocarditis takes me in my sleep soon. What little of it there is.
cool story, you need to study for comptia exams, pass them, leave that job, and work from home as an IT person
I looked at CompTIA and anons said it meant you drive around fixing boomers computers.
I'd do ANYTHING for a work from home home job, I've wanted one since day one of my factory wagie job when I realized I made a mistake. I wanted one since 2019 before they really existed. I wish I'd quit in 2020 and gotten a WFH home while they were still in vogue and I hadn't damaged my hearing yet. Worst thing is I make 46k now so I'm scared of making any less.
the demand and pay for low level IT shit has skyrocketed after covid
if you get some comptia certs you can get a cozy job for more than 46k bro
you only drive around fixing boomer comps if you go into business independently
What exactly does the work entail?
What's the best way to study for CompTIA?
Should I go NEET for 2 months to do it?
-fixing basic problems with windows computers/office 365/active directory
-there's tons of free shit online, search youtube for professor messer
-do whatever it takes, it only takes a month of studying for each exam, A+, N+, S+, whatever you want to take
>I'll probably domerip because I don't enjoy life anymore it's just a fricking shell of what it was now. I took 2 vaccines so hopefully the myocarditis takes me in my sleep
>I can't. I literally cannot even get fat girls on POF to frick me. I'm 5 foot 11 thin and white I have no excuse. I'm jsut that ugly I guess.
I bet its not ugliness, but more your dissatisfaction with your life that seeps into your profile. It's a turn off to women. Quick and dirty fix, strip your profile of most text except the bare basics and keep it lighthearted at that, throw in a picture of nature like you hiked or some shit, and you should be able to roll in some fatties.
Jesus christ man 90% of the population does not live like this, you need to start searching for a better job pronto
i was born with tinnitus
in addition to the constant background ringing every once in a while one of my ears will ring VERY loudly for like a minute and i'm effectively deaf in it
my lifestyle doesn't help either, i've never worn earplugs at a concert and think those who do are pussies (even though its objectively a good idea)
if there's a lot of background noise sometimes i can't understand what people are saying
i'm only 28 and i have the hearing of a 60 year old sailor
>Currently trying to find a way to move with 2 trannies who work part-time and don't own cars and walk to work and supermarket so they live off of 1k a month each.
Lmao WTF anon
best of luck anon
I haven’t worked full time in over ten years. 20 hours a week is my sweet spot.
What do you do? How do you support yourself? My dream in life is to work part-time again. It's the only thing keeping me going. No woman will ever want or respect a man who doesn't work full-time but who gives a frick none of them want me anyway.
I work as a janitor at a hotel. It’s an easy, stress free job. I have zero dollars left at the end of the month. No savings. I don’t care, i enjoy my living.
The thing is, when i worked full time i would have these moment. Every time i was knee deep in someshitty work task i would thing the same thing: ”this is not worth the money. It is not worth it.”
same tbh. im a museum security guard after doing IT and electrician apprenticeship work for years, and the pay is half what I was making at those jobs but I literally get paid to just walk around and talk to people occasionally. as soon as i clock out i completely forget the job exists until I clock in again. i havent been stressed from work in years.
You guys do work at your job??? I just spent most of my time shitposting on Cinemaphile(nel) or watching youtube. What the frick else are you doing for 8 hours? Bossman need to pay me way more to use all that time to work lmao.
all the problems you complain about in here would be fixed with socialism and allowing workers to control the means of production
You’re a homosexual
and you cant prove me wrong
in the movie the main guy said something like "why should I work harder to help the company when i dont see any of that extra money." When the workers own the company, everyone benefits.
Ok big moron. If you and your moronic ditch digging friends were in charge things would be different. Right, dumb frick
>If you and your moronic ditch digging friends were in charge things would be different.
Yes. If things are done differently then different results occur.
I will literally murder you in real life, you commie frick.
Your owners wouldn't let you.
Now get back into your cage.
Time, the quality of time, and the compensation of time. All of it accruing to an impersonal machine and its more or less arbitrarily guardians & managers.
Retire? From what? I don't do anything now except serf the web. Why should I pay for that? Besides, I really like the coffee here.
I quit my accounting job to go back to cooking in restaurants like I did in college because I couldn't stand how boring it was and missed the adrenaline and yelling. Over the years tho it does get tiring, but saved enough to buy a food truck and live comfortably and can pay my mortgage. Probably would be making a lot more money if I stuck it out, but I look forward to going to work most days and never just waiting to go home.
>all these sob stories
Kek
The entire point of the thread newbie
Found a whole bunch of service industry/retail/lifty wagies and office drones trying to cope. Hell yeah bros, if you had his life everything would be golden, or you have his life and everything is. Keep on keepin' on, don't stop believin'

>game, nap, procreate with wife all day
>mouse jiggler keeps me appearing online

Is Japan great or awful?
Would Cinemaphile love or hate working as a Japanese Salary Man?
I'd rather be a fat ugly Yakuza guy who does porn and bangs cute Japanese girls, if I'm being honest.
I heard it's easy to get film roles as a white guy but you always get stiffed. the paycheck never arrives and since it's a one time thing there's no recourse
