Man unemployment would own. I remember the year between graduation and getting my first job and I just got drunk every night and disc golfed every day, it was the bees knees.

Now I'm just angry all day long because I'm either working or stressed out about work.

If you think about it, money doesn't really "exist", it's just an abstraction. Like when someone gets a paycheck, it's a direct deposit, which is just arbitrary data in a database. So uh

Well that's why we need to go back to the gold standard. :grin:

I could make about 44% less money than I do right now and pretty much break even every month. Time to find a job that pays 44% less, has zero responsibility, and can let me live happily ever after. :unsmith:

what about retirement

Well I suppose the government won't have anything for me, so I guess have children and hope they support me or kill myself?

A few weeks ago a college friend was in town and when I said I worked from home they were like "Oh, are you a writer?"

The thought that someone I went to school with and who knew me pretty well at the time thought I could be making my living as a writer made me feel both happy and sad. I'm thinking maybe I should just quit my job and start writing every day and just keep sending poo poo to people until it sticks!!

Then if I fail, we're back to the murdering billionaires/suicide.

You don't remember working for the school district? You used to tell us all about it. :confused:

Lmao what could you possibly be doing that stresses you out so much your life sucks, but you do it from home? Unless it's incall prostitution no one is even there in person to yell at you when you gently caress up

$400 a week would cover my rent and leave me with $25 extra at the end of the month, man, that would be living....
