What is the point of getting a job?

Question

It seems to me that all i am to an employer is a resource, just like coal or oil. They use me up until i'm dead or gone and then try to tell me that i've lived a good life. I don't get it! what's the point, why can't we have robots do that or something. I just don't like being used, and i don't want to fall into using other people. Is there any justification for work or jobs at all? And the money they give me from a job just goes right back to them when they want me to buy their asinine worthless pop-culture ****. Who ******' cares about that c**p!

Answer 1

It may be frustrating at times but having a job or a career is a part of life in order to survive. You gotta have money point blank and unless you have a trust fund somewhere, then working is going to have to be something you put up with. That's why it's best to focus on doing something you love and making that a career instead of just having a mere job.  Unfortunately most people are very unhappy with their jobs but either can't do any better or realize that they need the money in order to support their families and to live. It's just one of those downside parts of life. Yet, like I said before it doesn't have to be terrible. It's all about the choices you make for yourself.

I understand your frustration,I was just fired from my job on Thursday because apparently I wasn't living up to their unreasonably high expectations.I was absolutely shocked and devastated.I'll tell you,though,now that I don't have a job,I am prepared to do everything in my power to get another one,or my old one back! For me,I feel worse if I am not working,I feel that in life,you appreciate things more if you work hard to get them,if something's been given to me,I feel like I didn't earn it.Hard work and earning a good life for yourself is what this country is all about,and I am happy to share in that,no matter how many bad days of work I have had or times I feel sore and don't want to come in,I do it anyway,because one way or another,it does pay off,and it does make you feel good!

Answer 3

Yeah you're right!  Who cares about contributing to society, about having a roof over their heads, about having food in thier stomach, about having health care, public services, education, emergency services such as police, fire and ambulance.  Who cares that the employer pays you money that helps for you to have all this and more?  Who cares that people who feel the way you do are the ones that are draining the system and letting everyone else do the work while they sit around on welfare and do nothing? Who cares about the feeling of pride and accomplishment for a job well done or fullfilling a dream of a certain career?  Who cares that without hard working people all over the world that we would have nothing?

Answer 4

Perhaps you need a new job at a smaller company, or a company where you get along better with the managers/owners. Or start your own business?

I am rather fond of my employer.

He has a very open managing style where he asks me what I think of his ideas, and if he disagrees with me, he explains why.

You shouldn't give up! There's too much good out there. So much of the world to see!

Answer 5

Your absolutely correct, except that you forgot one thing.  You forgot to say "mother may I?" now you have to go back three spaces.  You arent the only one to feel like that, what happens to old timers who put in 20 to 28 years and don't get to retire because the company folds or some silly thing about the controller ran away with the money.??

but yours smart you can stay at home and live well and eat well, without a job...so I salute you.
