As someone who is going to have to get a job in 2-3 years, I’m dreading the day. Going to the same place 5 days a week coming home with no time and energy left for anything you actually like and doing this for FOURTY years or even more if you were unlucky, sounds HORRIBLE!! How could anyone actually like working?


There’s ways the do all that without working a job?
And who said No Work = No Thing?
Volunteering, Arts, Hobbies, Crafts, Socialisation
And Jesus, you’re going to be depressed when you’re forced to retire, with no friends outside of work and no hobbies
Yeah, avocation and vocation can both fill that hole. It is a hole that most people need filled, though.
The other way to look at it is what are hobbies and volunteering but work in of themselves? Human existence involves work, but every human should be able to find work that they can enjoy (or at least not actively hate)
Wow, that escalated quickly 🤣
Yeah I think I went a bit too hard on it
