I don’t get why anyone would even want a job

It’s like you don’t want that. You shouldn’t want to be forced to wake up every morning early with an alarm clock and drive to the same like building just because someone told you to. It literally makes no sense to me that you would voluntarily call another man boss and jestermaxx in interviews to beg someone for a job.

I’ve never even applied to a job before and even if I did have job, I wouldn’t understand why I’m doing it. I don’t want to be forced to go to sleep at 9pm or 10pm just because capitalism says so. That’s evil. I want to stay up to 3am every night and play on the computer and jerk off and watch kick.com. I want to go out for 2am 7-eleven runs cause that’s based.

I’m free to do whatever I want, I don’t have to wake up with an alarm clock.
Oh Wow!

That’s why I moved to Asia cause it’s cheaper. Main reason was the get a girlfriend but I can’t because all girls are lesbians.

Whatever little money I have I can stretch it out further living in Asia.

Like milky tea, I can get for under $2 delivered in China, in America that would be like $15 to get a single item delivered.
Oh Wow!

You don't have to. You do have a choice. Nobody is going to make you do anything. Capitalism doesn't say anything to you.

you aren't nec wrong but a little off base.

work does give you some satisfaction. it sounds like the subordination is what bothers you.

also if you are working for your community its not bad and a good way to spend your time.

that said....mirin dat dere never applying for job bit (if true).

I don’t want a job. I’ve hated every job I’ve ever worked in my entire life. Wage slaving brings me more misery than anyone can imagine. It’s torture. Consider what I describe in my threads and multiply it tenfold. That’s how my spirit feels.

But I was born poor. Everyone in my family is broke. I won’t be getting an inheritance. So I have no choice.

curiously enough....LEAVING your job is a great feeling that can't be replicated without a job. like the daily walking out to your car at 5:01pm or whatever.

No I'm not saying get a job for this reason either.

You can't live very long without oxygen but that's not a good reference. You breathing air isn't draining any else's resources unless you're in a very confined place. The problem is that retards who are too lazy to work for it themselves but not smart enough to figure how to make it without working.   They want to justify mooching off others. Bum behavior.

Every single aspect of our society is explicitly and intentionally designed to make you a slave.

That is a fact.

It’s weird

The goal posts keep moving for me

At first I hated an office job and having a manager and the commute and all of that

Now I work remotely, am an individual contributor with no manager or any oversight, no commute, am surrounded by nature, can make my own hours, it’s easy work

And I still fucking hate it … so I’m thinking the problem is just me and not the job itself… I should be grateful but I’m not

I get that. I think a lot of us are there as well. Despite my other posts here, I wish I could have what I have without working. I think it's important to find something you are passionate about and pays enough to get you to a point in your life where you have enough to be happy. Sure, you won't be happy about it all of the time, but don't choose what makes you miserable. If you are that miserable working, time to make some kind of changes.

I'm a mechanic basically. I had other choices, even went other directions but kept coming back to it. I do like it, even though my role now is not really turning wrenches much. It pays enough I have what I need. Overall I love the result of what I do. I remember when I was just an oil changer and tire guy, had a lot of fun every day at work, always learning something. I remember people who literally were against me because they couldnt' stand that I actually liked it. Even now guys around me who this is all they can do and they hate it, it's funny to me, because they don't have the sense to find something else.

It's not that it's not easy, it's just that you make is so goddamn hard.

I was fully remote from 2020-2022 (age 24-26) and remember complaining about it occasionally, but overall it was a great feeling. The simple fact of being autonomous during the workday, in full control of my environment, brought me to the happiest state I’d ever been in my adult life. I was getting 8 hours of sleep every night, cooking high quality meals, reading, studying financial literacy, working on creative projects and best of all, exercising during the day. I was in peak physical and mental shape.

Then inflation hit and my remote job that kept me afloat no longer could, so I had to apply to a new position and the one that hired me was RTO.

And let me tell you, going from remote to back in the office full time is the most soul crushing feeling I’ve ever felt (ded fkin srs).

Thanks for the perspective re having to go back into an office after having worked from home.

I suppose I’ll practice some gratitude and be appreciative of my situation.

Hope you’re able to escape the grind somehow brah, do everything you can … I know how brutal it is

Work is necessary. We're not forced to hunt and father anymore. Only a few of us are tending land now. Humanity isn't built to sit around and Netflix all day, getting fat like Wall-E.

Where do you get your self esteem from?

I always wonder this about people who don't work.
How do you feel good about yourself?
How do you approach women?

I don't love my job (don't even like it most of the time), but I love paying my bills and providing for my family. My job lets me do that.

15 years into my salary career I realized I didn't want a job anymore just money making assets. The assets ended up turning into its own job out of maintenance itself, still better than the alternative though.

OP calls women lesbians bc they won’t bang him..

He literally has zero value as a human. Broke, dropped out at 15, out of shape, pube beard, receding hairline.

Why should any woman want that?

The Jews made modern money. The whole concept of "jobs" and consumerism was invented by Jews.

For thousands of years, humans used bartering and farming to make a living.

The concept of modern currency is slavery to keep you distracted and programmed to be a good slave. While the jews trade stocks and make a killing on investments that they manipulate for the most part. Just read over Jeffrey Epstein's emails if you don't believe me. (Super Duper Ded fkn Srs)
