Anyone else unable to hold a 9-5

[tuey32]

I am notorious for switching jobs often because I always reach a breaking point after a few months at the same job. It doesn't matter what the job is, even if I don't mind the work I always end up loathing it eventually. Call me lazy but I seem incapable of navigating the 40 hour work week. It's one of the reasons I'm suicidal because I cannot imagine doing this until I'm 65 but if I want to survive what choice do I have

Barely. But I have no choice. I don't have anywhere to go to live while I look for another job. I need to pay for shit.

At this point I'd rather just live in the middle of nowhere and collect berries and shit

Right now I'm in IT but I've done finance, dog grooming, retail, and worked at an amusement park. The repetitiveness of a job is the worst so I'm contemplating becoming a nurse or something lol.

Wow... but how old are you? I work in ICT, atm i'm jobless from 4-5 months. ICT is not bad, but i think i'll start a new freelance career, i don't like either to work 9-5.

 

[LaVieEnRose]

Yes. I would love to be able to earn my own livelihood but I'm too disabled.

[wait.what]

Yeah, I can't do it. Twenty-five years ago, when I was as energetic and resilient as I'd ever be, I could manage about 35 hours a week. If I pushed beyond that I'd end up sick, physically and/or mentally. Then I'd miss a bunch of days, lose income and piss everyone off, etc. As a kid I missed a ton of school for the same reasons. Nobody ever really figured out what was wrong with me. They still don't know.

At the end of the day, nothing is wrong with you. Society is just too aggressive and cruel, to force people to endure over 60 years of school/ job. It is truly not something simple to endure, so its a natural reaction to want to escape it. If anything, its sad that we are instead brainwashed to believe something is wrong with us, if we are against this

This is clearly 100% bullshit. We are going to die in the end no matter what. Yet we need to endure over 60 years of this shit. Like what the fuck is this??? Its torture. All this effort just to die in the end lol...... how do they expect people to not go crazy
