In a way, maybe this really is one of the ways of fixing that boredom. You give them empty seats which wouldn't be filled and they are less bored. In any case, I feel like in eastern Europe 95% of retired people are bored every day for the rest of their life. If they aren't doing gardening or people watching there is nothing else they know how to do except watch TV.
- swman 5y agoLol just a thought but I’m imagining being one of those people you mentioned and I would feel like a sim!
- nomorewords 5y agoIn Eastern Europe most of the old people get out at 6 going to the park benches and talking all day (in warmer months; if living in towns/cities) The other spend almost all day gardening/field work and, like you said, watch TV. However, I am concerned for the working-age people, as noone really seems to have a hobby. Most people just scroll Facebook and watching TV. In most circles, you might even be looked at funny for spending money on a hobby that isn't fishing or hunting (like playing around with electronics, without making money off of it)
