Working for yourself. Creating your own business, not being a slave to the system and being manipulated by media and the collective unconscious into thinking it's normal to work for someone, to sell your SELF, not your products (as it should be, in a rational society). Sadly, nothing about todays society is rational. But hey, if you wanna spend 1/3 of your life working a job you think is "OK", fucking have at it.
I would be ashamed to have written on my tombstone "worked 1/3 of his life as a sys admin".
There is no meaning in that. Just an empty job to have money, for what? For more stuff? To teach your children to do the same? Keeping materialistic corporations afloat with me taking care of the servers and stuff.
- paxys 7y agoIf you create your own business are you going to hire people to work for you 9-5?
- Kecelij 7y agoI would never do that. I am a jack of all trades and I intend to keep it that way. One man business.
- endemic 7y agoYou’re still beholden to the people who pay for your products/services.
- kentrado 7y agoYou will notice the different though. Those people only care about the end product, you can work however you like to get there. There's freedom in there.
- paxys 7y agoIf you are making it work for yourself then congratulations, but this is pretty unrealistic advice for almost everyone else.
- odonnellryan 7y agoIf you have your own business you'll definitely work 9-5 but you'll also probably work 5-9 ;)
