i think of jobs as something i need to do to be able to do what i want to do.

it is much more important to be a good friend and person than a good employee
:o

no fucking way

not being a good employe sucks

I love what I do.

Work from home, work maybe 4 hrs a week.

And usually do my work on my lap top on my couch during commercial breaks of Pawn Stars.


sooo....you still live in mom 's basement?

the job in itself is never a problem, it's the people you have to spend time with who are ... A job is great with people who do their best to collaborate, cooperate, contribute, when they re confortable, satisfied with their personal, private life... the problem is when they are frustrated losers who import their frustrations at work and annoy other people as a result. A pain in the ass when your own boss is a frustrated loser who releases his anger sadistically on his employees.  


On a side note, if you have a farm , an access to a forest for wood, a chimney and guns to hunt, you dont need a "job", you can feed yourself and dont need "money" and as a result you dont need to be part of the "system".

I started my new career a month and a half ago, we are 8 new guys that started at the same time.
Everybody there hate their job, they hate that we ask questions and they don't want to show us how to do the job properly.

hopefully, there are a few young guys there who showed us a few tricks, but the old guys don't give a fuck and try to give us shit for no reason.

our formators told us to keep our mouth shut, and endure it until we are accepted.
7 of the 8 are doing this, myself I set the tone the first week by telling an old fucker than I am all for taking criticism, but that I am not a fucking dog and that if he doesn't change his fucking tone when he talks to me I'll play his game too.

needless to say, the 7 others keep getting shit on by everybody and nobody say shit to me and they answer my questions without arguying 8)

If you have a job you love you got the world by the balls. If you don't it sure is nice to make enough money so that when you are off you have some cash to spend.  One thing for sure the old saying is true. No one ever said they wished they spent more time at work on their death bed.

  My daughter works in the medical field and her first two weeks of work out of college was hard during the night shift. She was so discouraged until she got her pay check.  She ran to me and said look at how much they are paying me. I guess it was a shock from her previous $10 dollar an hour college and high school job.

oh. doctors stopped being revered here after the 60's when they where exposed as overpaid ignorant drugs pushers and when every family in the country has been affected directly by a medical screwup.
I trust my dogs veterinary more that i trust my family doctor
Maybe that's why your country is doing so well... ;D
And revered is not the same as being respected...

we dont choose to be alive, but we choose the way we live. For those who have a soul, who are conscious. Im not talking about animals who only think about themselves and have no problem surviving at the expense of others. In groups, people have to insure their own survival and have their own ennemies and people they like. Ultimately th same people stick together and are against others. You have traitors who go from one side to the other depending of what benefits them the most... Good old fight between good and evil, and everyone in this atheist world has his own view of what s good an evil... This is why life is so stressful, because not everyone think the same and because everyone imports his problems at work and thinks others are responsible for them, especially when somethign goes wrong at work. Fat people are jealous of leaner people, people always try to pretend, impress, because their private life sucks, you have liars who cant get track of their lies after some weeks...
There are old assholes who survived being assholes and destroying others. You also have good hearted people who survived being good hearted, and sometimes if the guys at the top of the pyramid at your workplace are good people, most of the hierarchy is made of people like them. But basically it's a giant free for all.

The key is not to become an asshole because people are. You have to stay faithful. The key is to understand you are not other people's problem. Most of the time i figure someone's weaknesses and break him or her by letting them know from the get go i know why theyre frustrated but that it's not my fault, and i do it publicly so everyone see them getting put in their place.  At some point in life you re sick of having to endure other people stupidity and try to find a place where you belong, where you re with people like you and where you can contribute with the maximum of your best capabilities.

Old people have survived so many bullshit, fought every single day others, so they think that's how it has to be for any newcommer, that's its the rule of life, of the jungle, of nature. But old good people help young good people, and old bad people help young bad people.

More often than not, helps that I work with great people. I work for a company which focuses mainly on new technology with an emphasis online gaming, casino, slots etc. I get to work on a lot of awesome licenced brands e.g. Lord of the Rings, Tomb Raider, Playboy, Hellboy,The Osborne’s, Batman and other big brands. A lot of pressure sometimes it can be pretty limiting/fustrating creatively because you have to stick to the brand identity very closely.. and get constant approvals from Warner bro's etc. A lot of tedious back and forth.. Started off as a graphic designer in small company, one of my first design jobs was a pamphlet for a sex shop...spent a week deep etching dildos in Photoshop :D

I have multiple *careers* blended together.

I can't say I really love any of them.

I also remember what it is like to sit at home, even if you stay busy and have *hobbies* it sucks.


This is why you will see old folks outside tinkering with the garden or some shit. They don't want to sit in the house and wait to die. If they could go back to a *career* they would be more than happy to do so. Something to think about when your'e hatin' on your career....

we are function, we exist to contribute, and we re completely interconnected with everything that surrounds us. If we cant contribute we feel useless.

I was a doctor for 3 years until someone asked me to do something other than say "I'm gonna refer you to a specialist" or write a generic prescription for some generic pain killer.  Then they found out I printed my degree at home and had no fucking clue.  Now I'm a dentist and just walk into a random room once every 2 hours and look at someones mouth and say "looks good".  I figure I'll continue with dentistry until once again they know I'm a fraud.
