Not even remotely true. I can't tell you how many times I've heard people say things like "retire? but then what would I do?", or how many people work like their job is the only thing in their lives that means anything. I'm talking about here, on HN, the site you are currently reading.
- bambax 4y ago> people say things like "retire? but then what would I do?" And what happens when they do retire? Do they keep going to work? Or maybe they can't retire because they don't have retirement benefits. But when people live in a country with proper retirement benefits, they actually do retire, and somehow they manage to find meaning elsewhere.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 4y agoYeah, I personally find it pretty sad, but what can you do. Point is, while I don't want to work, "no one wants to work" is clearly false.
