I would be happy with a pleb job but they are becoming more scarce. At least ones that wont fucking call me all the time to 'reward' me with extra shifts and be pissed off with me when i dont pick them up.

lol nurse here.

Its funny because people give me shit and imply that im lazy because I 'dont work enough' (only work 2 or 3 times a fortnight - weekend shift so i get paid extra).

They say shit to me like 'how can you afford to do this or that, how are you going to have kids, why not pick up extra shifts to take your gf out' or imply im some mooch because my gf works full time (though she really loves her work and it doesnt really feel like work to her)

I mean I enjoy my work but i dont want to be working 6 days a week, double shifts, multiple hospitals and nursing homes + on call like a bunch of other 'hard working' nurses do.

Just live within your means fuckers and enjoy the simpler things.

The way I see it. not everyone was meant to have certain jobs or have college educated jobs etc. I work with a lot of people who make my wonder how the fuck they ever got the job or why they are here. Realistically you cant just be like 'oh engineers are in demand - hey lazy NEET who isnt good at math go do it' or 'Hey marketing department has an opening, hey quiet socially awkward NEET. DO IT'. Some jobs just dont fit certain people

Some of those NEETs I am sure would have been good at doing some 'pleb' job like office admin, factory manufacturing jobs, production line type shit that people always 'looked down on'.

But then globalisation. Those types of jobs are sent overseas so the higher ups can get even higher profits while those 'plebs' who could have been doing those jobs here end up NEETs on welfare which society then unfairly hates on.

Even a small portion of the extra profits the higher ups made from offshoring should go to cover the people they ucked over in their own country

I worked at a grocery store 2 years ago when OWS was in full swing. One day a dirty hippy came through my line with a sour look. His beard looks like ass hair and his hair had been stuffed in some kind of top knot, he was fat and wearing a peacoat from either rue21 or Old Navy. As I'm doing my job, he starts raving about wage slavery and corporate slavery and making money for "them" and the 1%. It got really annoying, even though a lot of it was agreeable. I hate Jews too, but I'm not that butthurt about it. And I hated my job, so I kept a straight face and said, "I get off at 9, come back then and we'll burn the store down". He started stammering because I kept my poker face, then mumbled something and left.

That's the fundamental conceit of this whole line of thinking. The people claim to be ascetic non-materialists who've somehow transcended something.

In fact, they're just offloading the costs of their materialism onto others and pretending that they're ethically superior for it. Using a computer, living in a house, going to a grocery story. All of these things are evidence of valuing material things, and the labour of people who make them available to you.

Anyone who actually wanted to stop being a "wage slave" would either start their own business or go become a self-sufficient hunter gatherer. But both of these options require too much work for the adherents of this "philosophy".

The actual nature of this "philosophy" is just self-entitled, narcissistic sloth.

aside from this being a troll pic, I don't understand why all those things would be made impossible by work.

I think every single one of those alternatives that are listed are things that at least one person in my office does.

its IT and there are a number of musicians, one guys learning Japanese, a few lift often, I indulge in art, probably half the office watches anime, a bunch like philosophy and literature, etc etc.

I have a degree in English and by being in IT I'm constantly learning in a field in which I only had a cursory knowledge before and it's very rewarding.

there seems to be a lot of people in this thread who think that work is just some soul-sucking all consuming intangible being but its not. maybe it is if you can't let it go when you leave, but that seems to be a more personal problem.

Those hunter-gather days are over. People cant just hunt shit or they simply dont have the know how as that is not what our culture is like.

As for hunter gather mentality. You could say people can work just to cover the bear minimums but most employers want people to work more hours to save on training etc.

I get hated on because I never want to pick up extra shifts. Working 2-4 shifts is enough for my lifestyle but im always expected to pick up more.

Same thing happened when i worked at my first job at a supermarket. I only wanted to work a couple of shifts and kept refusing to pick up extras when they called me. I got laid off because i was still in the trial period. I know it wasnt because of my actual work because they often gave me compliemtns on my work. It was jsut that i only wanted to work a few shifts and they tried to pass off calling me for extras as a 'reward' or somehting

You may say. idiot thats your fault cos you were on the trial period. Thats the problem. Even if you are willing to work (just a small amount to cover your lifestyle and basic cheap hobbies) they want you to work more for more money you dont need. Thats the slave wage mentality.

I said this to an anon, he called me an idiot and said you will never reach the chosen few who actually have all the power.

I have my answer finally: I do not care where on the financial spectrum I lie when I finally end life, but I do know that I will always keep feeding. I have to have more, it has to be all mine and no one else can get at it but me.

But this is just my stomach, it is not me as a entity. I am nothing, I am just an organism going from one collision of matter to another, and that includes the game of money.

The only way evident to me of reconciling the desire to not work with the need for money that doesn't rely on others is working for a few years with a massive savings rate and retiring early.

I head from a schoolmate (I go to a university ranked very, very highly in economics, so this kind of thing is a pretty common casual conversation topic) about this dude who got a job as a professor, then lived out of a van, taking showers at the school gym, et cetera, just living very frugally in general, and was able to retire successfully after 5 years. 5 fucking years.

If you're willing to cocoon hardcore, living the NEET lifestyle you've always dreamed of while having enough money to live decently is pretty achievable.

i like a lot of different authors' styles, and they help me in a way to develop my own style

Or maybe your point is so flimsy it can't even stack up against such a simple, almost ineffective attack like that one.

>Myself, I am less interested in deciding what sort of economic system we should have in a free society than in creating the means by which people can make such decisions for themselves.
Way to exempt himself from any responsibility for any mistakes he made. Hell, even crazy fucks like Marx and Friedman stood up and claimed that their point was the right point, and withstood criticism. It's these spineless little neo-marxist spawned by the corruption of pure Keynesianism that I despise, skulking, claiming to love democracy and the rule of the many but secretly claiming superiority over the "sheeple". Many of whom integrate OWS by the looks of it. And the neo-Atheism wave. I suppose a side-effect of the democratization of information in the internet has been the spawning of a brand-new pseudo-intellectual class who speaks before even learning what they're talking about in any depth.

Sometimes conversations die naturally. If that's the case: just move on, speak to a different member of the group, go get a drink and come back.

Otherwise, a good knowledge of pop-culture / your own hobbies / humour is a good way to keep it going. Bring up a movie or an album. If you're finding that nothing you talk about is flowing into a conversation - just accept the fact that the conversation is dead and refer back to paragraph 1. The bottom line is confidence and personality though.

You realize Graeber is a highly regarded academic anthropologist and not a Marxist, right?

The line appears in a passage where he's talking about how grand plans like those are flawed. Two sentences before that one:

>This is the reason it’s so absurd to imagine activists in Renaissance Italy coming up with a model for a stock exchange and factories—what happened was based on all sorts of technologies that they couldn’t have anticipated, but which in part only emerged because society began to move in the direction that it did.

The most common Hebrew term for non-Jews is "goyim," where "goy" means "nation/people/etc." and the "im" is the pluralization. It's exactly like the Latin-derived "gentile," where the "gen" comes from "gens," which was very similar in meaning. Israel is referred to in the Torah as a goy, as are all the other different ethnopolitical groupings. It's not the most universalizing word, in that it depends on a shared point of reference (like Americans talking about "overseas"), but it's not a negative term like e.g. "barbarian."

It's not considered pejorative at all in Hebrew, Aramaic, Yiddish, or Yinglish; in otherwise strictly English text it can have a pejorative connotation - which is why you never see it used there, outside of antisemites parodying how they think Jews talk. I'm not aware of any Jewish-language term for non-Jews that references any animal; besides "goy," all you see are derivatives of "Ben Noach," children of Noah.

fellow nursefag here. as someone without a passion for work, i think you'd be hard pressed to find a better gig than this. i frequently stack my shifts so that i work six days in a row and get eight days off after that. it's like taking two small vacations per month.

i make more than enough money to live a comfortable lifestyle; i get to spend my free time traveling, meeting girls, and just generally
doing whatever i please without having to stress about time or money. i mean fuck, i just got back from spending a week rock climbing in yosemite, and next week im going to iceland with some friends.

feels bretty gud.
