You know, sometimes I ask myself why people work for a minimal wage, and they always have a lot of bad things to say, but they are still living for this job, regardless of how much they are not happy with it. I asked many of my co-workers why they are still working here if they are not happy, and the answer is then always, oh, it is not so bad. Yeah, but why are you always complaining all the time? You can always quit and do something else. I said many times that I'm not living for my job, this is only something to do so long I don't achieve my goal, and that I'm not miserable at the moment when I work. But my goal? F.I.R.E :) Who doesn't want to travel the world? Who doesn't want to own a business? I mean... it's hard if you lie to yourself.
I understand liking one's job, I've liked and been engaged with mine...but it's simply a way to earn money to provide for my life even despite the enjoyment I've gotten from my professional life along the way. I really do not understand those who would prefer to push aside their "real life" for their jobs if they do not need to. Sure, I have to work, but if I didn't I would not...as I said in this post, there's so much more to life. You obviously agree.
Yeah, of course I agree, because I realized a long time ago that my current job is only to be able to live. It is also funny... I'm working 12 hours a day, 13 days per month, it's not bad, but who wants to work 12 hours if when I come home, I can only sleep? And then, when my co-workers see me being on my phone all the time when we have breaks, and they are always, what are you doing, and one time I told them, I'm not here to hear how you are talking dirt about our job, but you do nothing to be able to quit and live your life. I'm here to support me, but If I'm going to do this job all my life, I will be emotionally and physically exhausted, and my life will be short. They were not happy with my answer ;) But who am I to tell people about how to live their lives? ;)
Yeah, we all have to live our own lives and make the choices that we feel are right, but I think so many people make bad decisions for one reason or another, habit perhaps. I don't like people complaining about things but making no effort to change them...I find that very annoying. Don't like the situation? Then change it!
It seems you work with some people like that.
Some? 90% of people live for this job but still complain…I mean…get a life…but I'm not allowed to say this out loud anymore…😂 And then when I asked what is their dream job, their answer is always, oh, this job is great. 😂 Yeah, because we earn good money, and that's why nobody leaves…But let's be real…you will be 60, and you will still take care of elderly people who are 10 years older than you? Great plan people 😂
Lol, yeah it's nuts huh? It's like people can't see beyond their noses - no distance vision.
Maybe they have beautiful noses, and they don't want to look anything else 😂
That must be it!
