Is there even such a thing as a good job? Seems like everyone is miserable no matter what they do.

Some are better than others. But if I didn't have to work, then I wouldn't.

Work to live, don't live to work. Just find something where you're not being taken advantage of with a livable wage.
>>
>>34103990
That is a people problem more than a job problem. Things at work are easier than ever and everyone complains like little princesses. One will excel in anything they do, if they are as great as they think.

not possible for most people

The very fortunate actually get paid to do what they enjoy doing. The almost-as-fortunate have jobs that are not painful and are made pleasant by the surroundings, colleagues, etc. The wisest among the rest find work an acceptable price to pay to have the rewarding lives they have outside of 9-5

these people are also incredibly fortunate.

You'll know it when you have it and when you lose it, because you'll return to the natural state of the worker, wanting to kill CEOs

This entire board is botted by glowgroids else most people here would arrive at the conclusion they have to actually assassinate politicians and zogbots and kidnap their kids or commit terrorism.
These threads are all over the place and there is 0 viable solutions to the problems presented.
Just keep going or do something or whatever vague and useless drivel is parroted to oblivion.

how come you're not doing that right now?
>>
>>34104222
Because im upper middle class and i see what most upper middle class scum is like and where they get their money from which is either legalized fraud or embezzlement

If you aren't miserable, you won't buy the New Thing and keep the cash flowing. If you are to miserable, you might do something to improve society. So capitalism is constantly optimizing the level of misery. We are currently going through a phase of maximum misery.
>>
>>34104226
so by your logic shouldn't you be kidnapping their kids or some shit?

yeah i feel like the elites have been slacking too much on the bread and circuses recently.

I'd hire an electrician right now if I could. Fuck
>>
>>34104237
Do you even begin to conceptualise how much effort i put into even talking to a subhuman mongrel like you and how much effort it would cost me to explain what i really mean and what my logic is to a wild animal like you? Just the sheer amount of energy to put into words the idea that i have expressed would cost me tremendous amount of mitochondrial action that im never getting repaid in any form

KeK!
Just for that, I'm going to "LEVEL UP!" You and everyone ITT, if they want it.

Remember: serving up ravioli every day of the week soon becomes tiresome and dulling to the palate.

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

My job is good, I enjoy it thoroughly (the vast majority of days), and I make hella bank. So yes, good jobs exist. Just don't be a tradie or even worse, a faggot sparky like in your image. Sparkies are always miserable retarded fat drunks.

Work always sucks. Your relationship with your company is inherently adversarial because it's their goal to pay you as little as possible for the most work possible. Which is why they lobby the government for more migrants, try to keep you tired so you don't have a sideline or look for other jobs, etc. And most of your coworkers are too retarded to realize this so good luck forming a union like your grandparents had.

Small business: Currently being gutted by private equity. You'd be suprised at some of the niche industries currently being gobbled up. Pet cremation services, youth sports arenas, etc.

White collar jobs: Insane amount of competition, politics, and HR backstabbing. Not really attainable unless you have connections, did internships in college, etc. Often carry an insane amount of debt by keeping up with the Joneses.

Tech: Destroyed by Pajeets and AI.

Skilled trades: High wage but you will get screamed at by insane boomers and probably destroy your back by age 40. I've met tons of security guards and call center reps who started out as machinists and plumbers.

Service industry: Shit wage. Dealing with the public is hell. They deserve way more credit than they get.

I work in IT and I'm pretty happy. Some Sundays i actually look forward to my Monday.
>>
>>34104787

Do you think the AI threat and foreign worker visas are overblown then?

I interested in going into IT but people have tried to scare me out of it. I have heard that AI is a bubble though and Canada is going to let a lot of the Pajeet visas expire.

what do you do
>>
Work isn't fun and happiness. It's any time you are doing what needs to be done and experiencing its difficulty and duress. You usually don't enjoy chores, but they are important and require effort.
>>
>>34105812
I do enjoy chores because they directly impact the quality of my life. Any job I can get is equally miserable and pays the same no matter how well I do it.
>>
>>34105812
Work in practice is like if you put the effort into hours of cleaning or chores but what's cleaned by the end is arbitrarily limited to a fraction of what should be clean because it benefitted some bloated humanoid tick.
