Idk, I really like my job. It's only been 6 months though, I guess we'll see

UBI would be nice. Imagine working at a job you like because you like it, not because you need it to survive.

Man, I feel this. Either face losing everything you own, starvation and homelessness or stuff your misery down deep and drag your sorry ass to yet another shift at the dream crushing factory.

I was looking for a job and then I found a job

Unemployed with money, however... I spent about 5 years 'unemployed' and living on income protection insurance, which gave me about AUD7000/month. It was great!

I could probably retire (I’m old) if it weren’t for needing health care. It would be so nice to live in a proper country.

Those luscious green hills over there? Oh that's where the Epstein-class billionaires get to enjoy watching us fight each other over scraps they send down to us.

Having just gotten an offer after 9 months of being jobless, I can relate to this. Although the 1k/month hike vs my previous job is a nice incentive.

The opposite of this is "getting hired" and "quitting"
