it only gets better if you make it better. Organize a union at your workplace
Really didn't expect that direction in the second half 👍🏻
I like giving real solutions to these kinds of problems :)
What kind of degenerate sleeps without the head of their bed up against a wall?
People who have had bedbugs. Old habits die hard.
Say what?
When you get bedbugs and want to prevent them from getting on your bed (after treatment, say) you pull your bed away from the wall, thus limiting the surfaces they can transfer from. If you also put your bedposts in interceptor traps you’re pretty safe from them. They’ll get stuck in the traps and be unable to get out.
Source: had to deal with the bastards for a year because of a useless landlord and incompetent exterminator. Got really, really good at pest management.
TIL
Ha, stupid bedbugs. A trap like that would probably never fool me!
I'm in the bed in the middle of my room gang, never had bed bugs.
But then Monsters can attack you from any angle - Bed in the corner gang sleeping back to the wall.
Lol, I'll even wake up sleeping with my back to the door -- no fear.
Wtf next thing you're going to say you sleep with your arm hanging off the side of the bed or your feet sticking over the edge. I'm surprised you're still alive.
Stay up longer. Wake up tired. Do your job really half-assed all day. Let your employer have the worse you.
Did this while younger, it can work for some time but don’t underestimate the consequences to your health from not getting enough sleep.
How much younger are we talkin? Asking cause I’m getting older and wanna know when that’s gonna tell life to kick me in the nuts
About late 30s it kicked in for me
Suck dick for a living. Much more free time.
I prefer to be choosy about the dicks I suck
Ok then no more gaming for you mr. wontsuckdickformoney
That's Ms Sucksthechoicestdicksforcashonly to you
Not what I heard
😘
Get up at 6. Work will 6. 1hr to make dinner. 2 hrs awake with wife. Go to bed at 9. Wake up at 530 and cry for 30 min.
Rerpeat adinfinium until i finally die. This is no way to live.
This is no way to live.
I wonder what would happen if everyone who felt this way all at once just decided to stop. All at once, everyone turns around and goes home. How many people would it be? Half? 3/4? Most of them?
We almost got to experience a change when Covid hit, the only bright spot, but it was soon eclipsed by corporate buzzwords and inspirational music montages on powerpoint telling us how happy we are to return to offices and ten hours of driving and 1/8 of our paycheck on gas every goddamn week so we can sit in a visible place while we waste time reading emails that don't pertain to us and attending meetings about initiatives that are meant only to make the shareholders think we're doing something.
Shareholders who attend the meetings via Zoom at that.
Hah they still actually look forward to playing the game, instead of just playing it to fill the time.
This is 100% truth.
When you're young, you have a lot of free time and no money to enjoy that time
When you get into a career, you have money, and no time.
When you retire, you have money and time (to some extent), but you're old and likely not able to enjoy things nearly as much as you would have been able to when you were younger (generally due to body aches and whatnot).
Being middle/lower "class", you're basically fucked.
No, it gets much worse.
No but it does get worse after you have kids. Ah who am I kidding, this is a greentext post.
It's easy! Just take 100% of your free time and throw it away on a far-off dream so you're completely exhausted. Go into debt trying to get a fancy degree to maybe increase your earning potential.
More seriously, if you feel you're in the same position:
If you're privileged enough and have the willpower, you might be able to find a happier work environment (though it requires sacrificing your already meager free time by searching for jobs constantly for 6-12 months or more). I know folks for whom that's paid off - very impressed with them. May also be some online courses or community colleges around that could open doors.
If your situation is impossible, I'm sorry. I feel for you.
Do his jeans have little jean booties attached to them?
Jooties!
Narrator: No, it doesn't.
He only has two hours after work before he has to go to sleep? That's like a 70 hour work week!
I mean you still have to get home first, then probably cook and eat something, shower, etc.
All of that takes time as well
I have about 3h of gaming after work during the week. So the meme is pretty accurate about this part. But I also have free weekends, enough vacation time and a job that doesn't drain much energy. So I'm fine currently.
I mean it helps if you don't completely hate your job.
Here's the trick: just sleep less! You'll get more time to ~~play games~~ do chores, ~~stare at the ceiling in existential dread~~ find yourself, and ~~slowly lose your sanity as sleep deprivation begins to bring your worst nightmares to life~~ sleep deeper in the precious hours.
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
