Can confirm. Investing in real estate in the mid to late 1980s have made many a millionaire in my neck of the woods. Nice to be an only child sometimes.
I have completely forgotten about this comic, and I don’t know why. I remember reading all of it like 15 (ish?) years ago or so. I can’t even remember how I found it or when exactly it was, but it was part of my feed back when “Google Reader” was still a thing. I do remember Obby had entered your life though, when I stopped reading. But I don’t think I consciously stopped, I had just forgotten to continue to read?
In any case, thanks for the reminder Jennie, I’ll go catch up now. So I’ll be a little while.
@cabbagee FYI: if you crosspost something (instead of posting the URL to the post), the source-credit in the OP would have been visible and clicking the thumbnail would have open the image directly.
You have no control over your work or work environment. You do not understand why things are done the way they are. There is no belonging to anything other than a paycheck and sad trombone pizza parties. You are not growing from your work to reach your potential, or aren’t being actively developed or grown. Your uniqueness is not recognized, you are a serial number.
The great news is, we’ve added menial cost mental health EAP to gaslight you as if any human could succeed in the framework above.
There was this one guy who wrote whole books on this kind of stuff. He called this “alienation” and was trying to warn us about it all the way back in like the 1860s.
You talking about Durkheim and “anomie”? If so, yes the concepts since the beginning of industrialization haven’t changed, unregulated capitalism has only exacerbated the core issues of humans not having evolved to work the way companies want to operate.
