Why is this allowed? Our forefathers fought and shed blood for an 8 hour workday and within 20 years we've allowed that right to be eroded. Plus you give an hour before and ahead of work to commute and prepare/groom and you have 11 hours of the day towards working. If you need 8 hours of sleep, you have just 5 hours to live. And in there you need to get all your meals, exercise, recreation, maybe sex, cleaning, personal stuff, and relaxation.

You forgot to mention you have 2 days off in an 8hour/day 40hour/week work schedule. What do you do that would make it impossible to fulfill your desires within that time period? There's typically an option of working 10hour/day so only 4 days a week of work. That's 3 days off. Again, what can't you do to satisfy yourself within that time period? Also, not everyone sleeps 8 hours/day. I get by on 4-6. It doesn't bother me in the slightest. Any time I feel drowsy, I stand or walk about. I work a sit down job and sit down in class outside of this for a total of 12 hours/day 5 days a week. I get bored on my days off and satisfy all of my desires within the 2 hours/day I have available mon-fri or the first 3 hours of Saturday.

One of my first jobs was at a place where I was a "project coordinator" making 28k/yr salary. Supposed to be typical 9-5 blah blah blah. Turns out I end up working 6-7 days a week often putting in 60+ hour weeks, without overtime pay because I was considered exempt "manager status" because I had like 5 temporary minimum wage employees to oversee.

When it came down to it, I was essentially making less than minimum wage for really stressful work. When I complained about this, I was told that I knew this was a cutthroat environment going into it and I had to expect that. But hey, there would be some weeks where I only had to put in 40 hrs. I actually quit one morning when I was the only person in the office (had to get in super early to start my work) and cleared out my desk, threw everything important away, etc. When I was walking out, I saw my friend who encouraged me not to quit but to wait to get fired so I could collect unemployment.

Anyways, that's what I did. I put in the bare minimum of work. I would leave for the day before I finished everything I had to (even though I would put in 10 hrs/day) and get dirty looks from the other wage slaves. I fucked things up and let things slide because I couldn't be motivated to do them and didn't have the time. Was finally called in by HR two weeks later and told to clean out my desk, which luckily was mostly cleaned out anyways. Was a huge relief off my shoulders.

Ended up coasting by on unemployment til I found a new job a few weeks later. Was hired on the spot for much better pay in a nice office with my own view of the city. Was told I never have to take work home with me and that I can work at my own pace.

I had run-ins with a few of them. My properties are in Nevada, so we get a lot of Californians coming in and thinking that the same housing rules apply. For instance, here we have a five day eviction rule.

I had one couple who knocked holes in the drywall, and threw out my washer/dryer system with replaced it with one of there own. Naturally I gave them an eviction notice.

7:30-4:30 master race here, with an hour lunch break from 12:00-1:00 when I have enough time to drive home and walk my dogs.

Also, it's flextime so I don't stress about being late, I just have to make it up later if I want the money for those hours. If I'm too busy or don't feel like working 40 hours I just get a slightly smaller paycheck and it's nbd as long as I don't do it so often that I can't pay my bills. If I have to make up time, like today, I can get 10 hours and still stay no later than 6:00 PM if I take 30 minutes for lunch instead of an hour.

So glad I figured out that waking up and getting out of the house early is so much better than sleeping in and then getting home from work long after sundown. I actually have time to do stuff outside after work or run a few errands. Plus, at least for me, time goes by SO much faster early in the morning, 7:30-10:30 goes by in the blink of an eye. I live in Florida so it's hot as fuck during the summer, I like getting to work at dawn so I don't get sweaty walking through the parking lot in the hot sun in long pants and a button up shirt. Then I'll have fun outside after work in shorts in a tank top and get as sweaty as I want. And then during the winter it's nice to get off work early since it gets dark at 6, I hate being inside all day and then not having daylight once I'm off work. I don't know how people up North can deal with winter days that are so much shorter and get dark in mid to late afternoon.

I've got an entry level cook job at Smashburger and I'm happier than I've been at any other job I've had as well as the 5 or so years of jumping around different college majors (3.5gpa).

It's a five minute walk from my mom's house, I can smoke as much or as little weed as I want even on the clock, and winning points with my boss and getting considered for a promotion or a raise is as easy as staying a couple extra hours to help close whenever he's on the schedule. Already currently being trained for supervisor after 5 months when I started the job being fucked up on anti psychotics and drinking too much after my best friend died at the start of the year.

Having a real hard time convincing myself not to drop out of college altogether and relocate to somewhere coastal when I hit assistant manager.

You'd have to be a dumb motherfucker to think you're a wage slave when there's people in factories in china pulling 14+ hour days 7 days a week for a fraction of the US minimum wage, and that's considered a better job than the farms those people come from.

At least the turboautists on /r9k/ are liberated in so far that they know it's over for their part and instead reject the dream of normality. Here it's mixed with that soul-crushing desperation, totally reliant on the hope that you're gonna make it one day, if only you suffer just another 10-20 years and hope you don't mentally fall apart along the way.

So you can get antidiscrimination laws for being a faggot but not for being reserved.

"Nothing" means doing anything that isn't fulfilling or improving.

Watching tv and shitposting is "doing nothing"

Everyone is guilty of this though. It's next to impossible to wage slave for 8 hours and then come home and study or take community college classes.

Likewise, because you have so little free time, you try to make up for the wageslaving by staying up too late.

The lack of sleep compounds each day over the week and then you waste a weekend over sleeping, which gets nothing fulfilling done, and keeps your sleep schedule fucked up.

>renting to section 8

It'll be a nightmare unless you have gang relations that will beat the shit out of them if they suck.

Lets review a year with section 8
>stop paying rent at beginning of winter when you can't evict them
>you must eat utility costs as you legally can't turn them off in winter
>they destroy your property as they know they are leaving
>when you keep their deposit they bring you to small claims court and cry about their baby/being section 8
>they get the deposit back

You'll have like 6 months of rent a year out of the place and have to eat power utilities during the winter. They will abuse the fuck out of free power during that time doing shit like running heat on max + full open windows and doors. They will trash the place.

Then you will have to find someone new to rent the place. Almost everyone who buys a house tries renting it out when they upgrade. Most decide not to deal with it.

I have a factory job which I take more seriously than I probably should, but they pay app 30$ an hour plus shift/weekend/overtime and I can tell the factory manager if I disagree with his plans for the production and he will actually agree with me because he knows less than I and he respects us workers' competence

Also no chicks in the production

Also paid breaks

Also weekends are best because the salarymen are not present and you can basically dick around a whole shift as long as you work 1 1/2 hours to complete the routine stuff

Best days are the ones where shit goes havoc, you won't get a foot to the ground, the day passes in a flash while you make important desicions and deal with mechanical bullshit and when you come home you are nicely physical tired and can sleep like a baby once you go to bed.
