Umeu, as charming as ever

and so cute now you're all grown up

I always wondered how people could happily go to their meaningless jobs every morning when all they do is make somebody else rich. How many people can honestly say that what they do is important in the big scheme of things?

But I've decided that what's important in your life (your legacy, defining moments, whatever) is likely to be what you do outside of your job. A job will just be the way you sustain yourself while you wait for those important bits.

If that makes sense.

I am perfectly fine not caring about that, life isn't perfect. Neither am I, but oh baby do I come close.

well im working because i have a goal... im making money to go on a trip... i wanted to go on that trip all my life... so I honestly dont care about the big scheme of things, i only care about my scheme of things... yeah its crappy pay, but i have no better alternatives... besides... are you having part in the big scheme of things when u sit home and do nothing? even less i guess... i agree with your last part though... it goes for most people... if work takes up the most wonderful moments of yur life... eith you are sad, or your life is :P

and yeah, i still love you 2 :D

I'm not getting at anyone. Nor am I suggesting my (jobless) life is any better. I'm just saying that the insignificance of things can be depressing.

**Husar** · 07-18-2008, 22:15

Heh, insignificant?

I work at a fuel station, and not nearly the hours Stranger does but looking at the money going through my hands in just one shift, how people depend on what I sell and how dirty the place would be if I and others didn't clean the place now and then, I'd hardly say it's insignificant. If The Stranger wouldn't clean that grocery store your groceries would end up full of dirt and bacteria, if he didn't carry around boxes there wouldn't be any groceries in the first place etc. Of course his work is significant, insignificant are some decisions at management positions that the employees hardly consider and noone really cares about.

You should be sorry for those rich managers who try to be important and live shallow lifes and still don't get that they cannot appreciate what they have after their fifth wife has left them.

No offence intended toward rich and clever managers.

9 hours ? 5 days ?

GIMME THE FLYING JOB ! THIS ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT WILL TAKE YOUR VERY OWN JOB AWAY !

9 hours/5 days is a dreamy schedule you'd have in Turkey. Especially if you work in the private sector, life is sucked the **** out of you with "flexible work hours" that never shorten but are guaranteed to go over 12 hours where even your Saturday is demanded. The only way to grant a job that is as BEAUTIFUL as a job that takes only 9 hours a day on a 5-days-a-week run is to get yourself on the state offices' boats.

I understand your pain but, man, you can't guess how it feels when you're waiting next to the AD agency 's car with a flat tyre that was supposed to take you home on a work day that started at 9 a.m. and finished the following day at 4 a.m.

Endure it, grasshopper. Pain is your lifetime friend.
