- huhtenberg 10y agoDerek's wrong, of course.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoWell, I am out of control of my life. Because I need money to live, and so does my family. So I'm slaving the days away.
- coldtea 10y agoSure. People that need to work to feed their family (as opposed to working by choice, on things they like at their own terms, and having the financial support to not work for years on end) are out of control of their life in that regard (they have to be somewhere for 8+ hours each workday, they cant change places unless they found a job at the new place, etc).
