"Stop looking for a careeer and start looking for a job"

[J.E.T.S]

fukk working for people. Period.

Can't co-sign this fukkery. Nikkas put in blood sweat and tears to have a career. I'm not going to blow that hard work, because it's not shining in my face right now. Unless you have a family ( only exception), keep pushing for your dreams.

The amount of jobs where I turned down extra hours is off the chain.

If you schedule me from this to this, thats all im doing. Call me in on my day off?
Nah, b. Next time schedule me.

I mean yea, I'm gonna enjoy my days off. But if I am scheduled 5 hrs for example, I wouldn't mind staying 3-4 more hrs during my summer or winter break to make some more money if I have nothing planned and staying later won't effect any plans that I have.

Then again I'm just working at walmart as way to get money while I'm going through undergrad school, so it is proably different for me I guess.

don't agree completely but still an interesting perspective and mindset. the part i disagree with is taking any job and not caring about your happiness. i agree that happiness doesn't strictly come from a job BUT your job is one of the places where you spend the most time conscious (especially if you include the commute). if you're miserable at your job, your misery will contaminate other aspects of your life. I do agree that sometimes you should learn to make shyt work temporarily and learn how to be as happy as possible despite not having the greatest job and consider it a stepping stone. but if you're truly unhappy and feel like your soul is dead no matter how hard you try to make it work, you should definitely change something in your life.

i don't know maybe i interpreted the quote wrong but i just don't think a place where you spend 40 hours a week 50 weeks a year is irrelevant in how you manage your happiness. it's not the sole factor but it is still a big factor. I do agree that it's unhealthy to get your self-worth mainly from your career or job. i also agree that sometimes people should just grind/hustle a little bit instead of waiting for the perfect circumstances (if only to keep your mind from going crazy). i don't know, still an interesting quote IMO.

That shyt is so true though.

With my last job my husband MADE me quit because the shyt was making me physically ill. The mental drain that it put on me was not worth it.

i thought a career was a job. I may be dumb but don't you do work in a career and job

671. What must be understood about the subject of "jobs" before any further discussion can begin on the subject is that there are two types of job: the one that you create yourself, and the one that others offer you, and it is always the latter type that subhumans mean whenever they use that word. But in order for the latter type to exist, the former must have originally created it (since "jobs" do not exactly grow on trees in the jungle by themselves now do they). Translated from Subhuman, "We need more jobs" means "We need more innovative, daring individuals to risk their lives' savings (or borrow from banks by placing their property as collateral at the risk of losing everything and even going to prison) to launch mankind on new, daring and untried paths, and advertise whatever secondary subservient roles they might have for us under their tutelage and protection". But nobody uses the Human formulation because it would spoil for them the narrative of Marxist propaganda, so we are stuck with the popular conception and its associated implication that jobs do grow on trees after all. So fight the system, brother! Those capitalist vampires are not creating anything! All they are doing is sucking your blood dry and trying to take your "jobs" away from you!

A job is more so something you do just for a paycheck. You don't necessarily enjoy it but it makes ends meet.

A career is work that you do that you are actually interested in and enjoy. Theirs usually specialty training or schooling involved and the benefits are better.

Great advice, if you want to retire at 65, no earlier, with little savings and a bad back.
