Interesting discussion about being employed and unemployed.
I'm much against the working class sort of "having a jerb" societal fetish, by which I mean people who look down on someone who's relaxing during working hours and they get all salty with "what are you doing, have nothing to do, you don't have a jerb?", I mean that's stupid as fuck. It's usually shitty people with shitty jobs who don't identify as someone specific but rather just as a "person who actually WORKS in contrary to SOMEONE who was LUCKY". It reminds me of a different thing I spotted in some comment box not long ago, where heavy smokers argued that they're the ones keeping the country running because they pay so much on tobacco tax. I mean, sure.
Not to get sidetracked, I was unemployed for four months until this week, so I can relate with much that was said on the last couple pages. First month was super chill and then I missed the structure and feeling of accomplishment, I started setting up my alarm at 7AM and making to-do lists of stuff I thought I could do just to fill up this hole. Looking back, there was definitely a lot of wasted time there.
So yeah, I did enjoy the amount of free time when unemployed, but hell, I could have been more organized.
Well now I'm back at work and happy. I get to wake up soon and I do weird shit that I couldn't have thought of on my own.
