Thanks for post anon. Thoughtful, truthful and inspiring.

The real redpill is we are adaptable, resiliant, creatures of habit. Accepting routine and confirming to it removes the stress of having to stress over it and clears your mind for your own interests and endeavors. I am an oldfag who wagecucked for years and finally achieved success through hard work and determination. You neets will learn eventually. Sloth is bane of existance.

I did this too anon. Inside sales for 10 years. Dont kick yourself for being a cog in the machine. You didnt create it and you dont have to endorse it, it was here long before you got here and will be here long after you are gone. We all want purpose. We all want to think that our lives left a positive impact and we made the most significant change for the better that we could. For many of us, the only way to do that is by playing the game that has been presented to us.
The best way to effect change is to play by the rules(however deceitful) until you are in an actual position to help those you care about. You absolutely NEED to accumulate the power to change things before you can, and that requires temporary confirmation to the current ruleset.

I mean that sounds comfy in it of itself, I don't get any PTO. I'm paid based on commission. And if you aren't looking at other options you should, you have leverage with your experience. You can use some PTO to interview at other companies in the same field. If they can't promise a higher wage then all you've really lost is an hour and you were even paid for it.

Hell yeah! Similarly I sparked an idea for a business solution while working at my company that I feel could make it way more efficient and I've been learning C# at home to actually develop it. Once I have the working product I'm going to use the money I'm saving to launch some advertising and hopefully start selling that product to other businesses. If all goes well I'll have a real useful product and an office doing B2B sales.
>>12414274
Yeah man thank you for that. Sometimes I do feel like a cog in a machine but as I mentioned above I'm always looking forward as to what my actual goal is here. I'm not at this current company to make a positive impact in other peoples lives I'm focusing on mine first, once I have the capital and knowledge built up I should have a real product and be doing B2B sales, which is much more attractive than my current inside sales position. Even if that plan fails atleast I'll have the sales experience to be able to walk into any door and get hired. That's what I love about this field.

Amen brother.
We all like to think that we are all-powerful, and that we can do it all, epscially when we are sitting comfy on the couch.
Reality is we have precious few mind cycles to spare, and not so much energy.
The routine saves our mind cycles and directs our energy productively.
And we can walk with clear head and ready reserve to pounce on any new opportunity that does arise.

Idk I have a day job and earn 1.5x average in my country (IT job). Got an apartment as inheritance and looking to upgrade, going to leverage bank loans and collect rent monies from existing apartment. To be honest, wagecucking isn't that bad if you get a good start. If I get rich thanks to crypto then it's all good, but I am happy with my life and can get shitfaced on the weekend like right now.

I had a dream of a start-up. It failed hard, but I had a huge SAAS project that I showed off to my current employers and which got me a great job (I am a college dropout). I've always been depressed and don't really care to be honest, I just do things and see what comes of everything so I honestly have lost all hope of becoming "rich" and "successful". I am in good shape, make good money and have no debts, I will probably never make it, but at least I can afford a comfy life and have some real skills if that's what you were asking about.

I'm older than you, failed a lot of times, but each time I analyzed why that failure happened and never repeated it.
If you failed, instead of projecting into others ("you will fail"), learn and grow. You fail because of your decisions and your surrounding conditions.

>> No.12420021

>>12419988
Yeah sorry, I might be projecting my previous experiences on you. It's probably my own life that has taught me that every time I try to do something greater than average, I will fail. I've built 4 startups, the latest that failed is the only one that can be taken seriously. I've analyzed my failures and it's boils down to me being stupid. If you are quitting then I truly wish the best of luck to and hope everything will work out for you. It takes a fuckload of guts to quit your comfy job and pursue something.

> Acting like waking up before everyone else is a good thing.

If it wasnt for the job he'd not be waking up that early. Sounds like op is coping. I have coworkers who act fake nice, I don't trust them. There are many backstabbers in my office yet its difficult to find which ones they are. Have become quiet in the workplace to get those fakes to leave me alone. Only stuck with three employees who continue bothering me, 2 who seemingly look out for me and 1 who incessantly screws me over BUT is my boss. Might quit sometime this month without another job lined up.

There is nothing wrong about being a wagie. Working hard to progress in life is nothing short of admirable. However, some things people have to do to support their wagie life style are terrible and must be avoided at all costs.

These are:
>Long ass commutes
If you have to commute over 1 hour per day and especially in traffic you are kill
>Mind numbing job
You must have a stimulating job. Avoid data entry at all costs
>Oppressive workplace culture
Aka "you must do unpaid overtime anon"
>Paycheck to paycheck
If you are living like this then you are fucked. Get yourself out of that hole asap or become a slave.

If you are avoiding these then the wagie life-style is pretty comfy. Enjoy it my friends.
