By the way, there are people out there who bust their asses laying asphalt or drilling for oil 27 days out of the month because if they don't then they'll be out on the street, so sitting on your butt can't be that bad.

The life expectancy of those jobs are... Like not long.

My cousin was a deep sea welder.

I knew a man who was an undersea welder for several years in the Marine Corps.

He also ran with a biker gang and generally came to fuck shit up wherever he went, just a crazy man. Then he got busted in the head with a baseball bat after many years of hard livin' and that kinda just knocked the crazy right out of him.

He died of complications from Agent Orange poisoning contracted in Vietnam. Great guy, though.

No, this is Phillies...Lives in mother's basement, gets angry when she doesn't make coffee, waifu pillow, most likely breaths black mold as may time as the basement has flooded, will be a millionaire when his highroller daddy doctor dies and leaves his sentient turd of a son the whole empire. 

What, did you think I was thinking of you.

XIts really not easy. I use a LOT of time off and in the past, FMLA. 

People are rude and upsetting so i avoid all unnecessary interactions because they ALMOST ALWAYS end badly.

The customers are rude and upsetting. You gotta constantly tell yourself its the company and not you. But also realize that you are not there to be abused by the public.

You really gotta fully utilize your time off to take care of yourself and get things done or work will really kill your soul. You gotta have a social life of some sort.

I had to seek therapy for this job or i would not be there. My anxiety almost cost me this job. I also was getting extremely upset with customers. Listen to me when i say i had to fight tooth and nail to overcome these things.

So i stress, its not fucking easy at all but i can do it.

I worked at the tmobile call center for 5 years unmedicated and it was absolutely hell but i did it! Had fmla tho!

Work may possibly drive some depressed people to suicide. I should know. Ive actually tried to kill myself cuz i couldn't stand another day going to work

Just the thought of going to work for one single day makes me wanna commit suicide.

i work out in the morning to sweat off the alcohol

then i keep pumping caffeine into my veins to remain functional, so i'm so wired when i get home i have to drink myself back to sleep.

that, and i devote a great deal of effort to thinking about anything other than my own life. :|

You've built being a functional member of society up into something it isn't and you let people tell you that work=suicide because to them having their co-dependent little pity party is more important.

and who exactly are you referring to here?

Such vanity, to believe that the callousness of existence bears any intent... that fleeting, insignificant dust motes merit any attention whatsoever.

so there is no point in me getting a job then? 9_9 That thought is giving my life a purpose :x

Then you don't quite understand it.
There's no more point in having purpose than there is in having a job. Meaning, significance, fulfillment, usefulness... none of these have context at scale. All worth is determined at the individual level. Individuals determine their own paths, based on their own values and their own estimations of utility. One perceives the options available to them, and then makes a choice. The fact that those choices cannot divert forever from an eventual end changes nothing.
