>blue collar
pays like shit, leaves you exhausted, will kill you
>retail and customer-facing
pays like shit, you basically endure abuse or idiocy for eight hours a day
>pink collar and healthcare
can pay very well but the hours are insane and you also have to endure abuse constantly
>white collar work
best-case scenario, pays well, but you're still sitting through 4-hour meetings of nothing but bullshit and wasting your life away in front of a computer
i know i'm missing something because i don't understand how wagies aren't constantly miserable 90% of the time.
yes, sometimes you get a job you just inherently vibe with, or you get to work on something you're actually proud of, like you save someone's life or you help in the construction of a nice useful building
but all of that is rare. the rest of the wagies, do they just dissociate and swallow it down? is it just genuinely not that bad from their point of view?
>>759386>can pay very well but the hours are insane and you also have to endure abuse constantlylol fuck doctors and nurses. if they hate it so much they can join me working minimum wage on retail
>pays well, but you're still sitting through 4-hour meetings of nothing but bullshit and wasting your life away in front of a computeroh no, the horror
>>759389i anticipated a lazy response like this and should have amended the op.
the point is not that the better jobs are anywhere near as "bad" as the worse ones. obviously all of us would rather earn absurd amounts of money to sit through meetings. the point is that at the end of the day you're still almost completely wasting your life with meaningless drudgery and idiocy. the realization should break most people who value anything at all but somehow doesn't.
i dont understand how people dont just kill themselves tbh. especially back in the day.
I will make my living off daytrading, I got a system, I will be the richest member of my family and I will use the power to push a maoist agenda.
>>759393>>759391>people with comfortable at best just boring at worst jobs and high salaries who can function as proper citizens of bourgeois society should break when thinking about itdo you have autism or something
>>759396given how i've explained my position very thoroughly and your posts so far have displayed near-zero reading comprehension, maybe you're the one who's autistic.
>white collar work
People here seem to be stuck in 20th century. Most white collar workers are low level clerks payed on par with unskilled manual labour.
>>759394>daytradingyou might as well bet on a roulette
>>759400truth nuke especially for 3rd world countries
Everyone is just coping. Most do it by starting families and getting into relationships. Drinking and drugs probably helps.
>>759402No actually it is true especially for 1st world countries, because that is where the skillset for those jobs is ubiquitous. Everybody acquires basic computer literacy by the time they leave high school, so being able to punch numbers into spreadsheet carries no premium.
>>759386Unarmed security guard at night shifts is like white collar ascended, best job for shitposting on leftypol and doing nothing for decades.
>but you are uhhh class traitor protecting porky property?The only ones who will try to attack a logistics hub at night time are petite-bourgeoisie organized corpo rivals or an inside-job just to test you. Nothing happens anyway + alarm is automatic and patrols arrive automatically so you have no role anyway.
>>759424Legit most unarmed security guards at night shifts just end up coming to sleep.
>>759424Best "job" ever, just make sure to take night shifts are a storage / warehouse / logistics hub, never take it at shopping centres, never take daytime shifts or vidrel happens.
Most effort you have to put in is come, write your name and stuff to your shift counts, do some radio calls to say "normal", and open and close gate.
If an alarm comes a patrol car comes its their problem.
>>759431You can ever get drunk, smoke weed or do other drugs, but theres a risk of an inspector patrol coming so you have to get a sense of their schedule, but even then if you can pull yourself enough to tell them everything is normal and let them give them signature on your book and look sober enough then it can work.
>>759432I cannot express this enough - best job ever
just find a place where trucks are counted on fingers per year and you wont get in trouble, but the more foreign trucks there are the more likely you are to find someone with contraband, then you can buy stuff like iranian cigarettes when you're not in iran, you can buy drugs from truckers, but the more trucks there are the more bother.
My job as unarmed security guard -
I wake up, dress up, go to work (this is the hardest part, 15 minutes of walking!), I arrive at work, I lay out my food, I eat, I set up my computer to shitpost on leftypol, I open my little book at desk and write my name and shit (so annoying), I shitpost for 12 hours watch movies and play games, I go home, sleep. Throughout the night I also eat if I haven't eaten everything at the beggining and drink either water / energy drinks/ coffee/ beer / ice tea or whatever I want. I get paid about 700 USD / EURO per month for doing this, sometimes more if colleague needs me to take a shift.
I pity the unarmed security guards at malls and shopping centres, I think they are retarded, they have to stand up for 12 hours and prevent theft - receiving the same salary as me when I sit for 12 hours and do nothing not defending porky commodities.
>>759438If anyone remember the post about me clogging the toilet at work with the Lenin picture in the OP that was me
>>759438is there a way to distinguish the "active" security guard roles from the more sedentary ones? like a keyword or something.
>>759449Ask if their legs hurt lol
>>759402just watch me uygha, I'm gonna make so much money it's gonna be hilarious, I'm gonna be rich as fuck but also a communist and I will dunk on broke libertarians.
