Having a job might be the dumbest thing ever

Like you mean to tell me you actually want to force yourself to wake up early with an alarm clock and drive to a random building to do tasks that no one cares about just because some guy told you to do so and oh yeah, you have to do this for like 30-40-45 years then when you’re old then you have the bosses permission to retire and then enjoy your life when you’re old and can’t do anything fun. Oh yeah but it’s okay because you get the weekends off (thinking about work) and 3 weeks of vacation a year if you’re time off gets approved.

I’m on vacation 52 weeks a year.

Imagine letting some fat bald man disrespect you or try to exhibit personal authority over you just because he performs an administrative function for an institution.

Men who enjoy watching their wives get fucked would be impressed by the level of cuckening.

I've wondered if people who are considered lazy by others, underemployed unemployed in life on their deathbeds say "i wish i worked more! If only I stuck out the application process!"

Classic example of backwards rationalisation or, in the words of Aesop, “sour grapes”

The grapes were out of reach to the Fox.

No suggestion that others could not easily reach the grapes.

The existence of anyone else in the story is irrelevant to the story. You are grasping. It was a poor analogy.

It’s literally the entire point of the story and not only is the analogy apt, but there are few if any others that capture the situation so precisely.

OP is making a feeble attempt to denigrate paid work based on spurious arguments because he himself cannot obtain gainful employment.

There are literally no other characters in the story. It is only the fox. The point of the story is reconciling cognitive dissonance. It has nothing to do with anyone else.

The story, even though it attributes human thought processes to an animal, occurs in a universe where grapes are frequently grown and consumed as food.

Okay so now we are back to exactly why this is a horrible analogy….

Jobs are not unachievable.

Also OP didn’t say anything about building a meaningful career and building wealth. You just asserted that.

Because you are grasping at straws to make this ridiculous analogy stick, when it does not.

People who can’t get wealthy don’t settle with not having a job. They settle with a job and being a wage cuck.

There really are people who can't pass an interview process due to disabilities or limited mental function. For example something like 50% of autistic people never hold a job after high school, and only 21% worked full time.

https://specialneedsusa.com/data/autism-employment-statistics

actually reading the statistics it seems like there is a STRONG correlation between autism and NEET status, probably why being NEET is so popular on the internet.

53.4% of autistic young adults in the U.S. had ever worked for pay after high school, the lowest of any disability group (NLTS2, Roux et al., 2013).

Only ~21% of employed autistic young adults worked full time, at an average of $8.10 per hour.

Underemployment is as much the story as unemployment. 37% of autistic young adults were disconnected in their early 20s, with no job and no schooling, versus under 8% of peers with other disabilities (Drexel NAIR, 2015).

34.0% of autistic adults in the U.K. were employed in 2024/25, versus 55.3% of all disabled people and 82.0% of non-disabled people (ONS).

77% of unemployed autistic adults say they want to work (National Autistic Society). The gap is about barriers, not willingness.

A degree does not close the gap. More than 30% of autistic college graduates are unemployed, and many who work are underemployed outside their field. Autistic adults have the worst employment outcomes of any disability group in both U.S. and U.K. national data.

The gap responds to support. In a randomized study of Project SEARCH with autism supports, 87% reached competitive employment versus 12% without it. The number is not fixed.

OP don’t say anything about hard work.

The topic is explicitly about having a job.


The fact that no one can address the actual topic is pretty suggestive OP has a point.


It is almost as if you guys are experiencing cognitive dissonance.
