Toneswirly,

Yeaaaah… that feeling never really goes away.

MaoZedongers,

Don’t worry, it’s the same but worse for working full time

Asafum,

I just need to get through this… Forever.

Chocrates,

Every day is somehow worse than the one before.

na_th_an,

When I’m working full time I can afford food and heat. Way better than being in school.

MaoZedongers,

good joke

BottleOfAlkahest,

Where do you live that working full time guarantees someone enough money for food and heat?

Just be self employed and you won’t have that problem once you finally finish school.

Gallardo994,

Boy do I have news for you

dudinax,

That’s why concepts for longer weeks never worked out.

Cowbee,

It’s not just school!

BreadstickNinja,

Just wait until you meet “work”! No summer break, and if you skip you get fired and wind up starving and homeless.

What do you think life is… :)

Even though it’s not endless, thank God.

BilboBargains,

School is not a good place for smart people.

CaptainSpaceman,

School is not a good place for people.

jaybone,

Wait until you get a job.

We need to start shoving kids down mines again. Get them acclimated to real work by the time they leave school.

I like you’re enthusiasm but if we nail kids to crosses then they can’t work. We need to keep the little cunts hands free to work the mines.

For teachers too…

sucks to suck – would you like to continue?

PeriodicallyPedantic,

I’ve got some bad news for you…

Agent641,

37 here. Just gotta make it through this quarter hour.

Serious note: make some effort to find a career you actually enjoy so you’re not just waiting for every week to end. Basically waiting to die.

Fuck, now you tell me

I just recently figured it out too!

Your life is killing you

Zoboomafoo,

My alternative advice is to find something you’re passionate about to do on the weekdays when you aren’t working.

sentient_loom,
@sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works avatar

That’s good, but then 5/7ths of your life is wasted. Plus, you don’t really have the time and energy to fully commit to 2 days of hobbies, so you’re really only enjoying 1/7th of your miserable wasted life.

Zoboomafoo,

Sure.

And until you find that job, having something to do in the evenings is how to avoid the feeling that life is just waiting for the weekends

sentient_loom,
@sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works avatar

Indeed. Even better is having something to live for, or even something to work for (even if the work itself sucks). And these things can take place on evenings and weekends. Then at least the toil is meaningful because it enables the real work.

CaptainSpaceman,

What if all the careers id enjoy dont pay well or have extremely high barriers to entry?

sentient_loom,
@sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works avatar

If they don’t pay well then that’s a different problem than the meme refers to. If there’s a high barrier to entry, compete like fucking crazy and own that shit. Any different attitude is a distraction that will sabotage your efforts.

CaptainSpaceman,

OK cool, ill go try out for the Jets next season

sentient_loom,
@sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works avatar

Are you practicing like crazy? Are you an amazing ball player with lots of experience?

CaptainSpaceman,

Are you practicing like crazy?

Yeah, 2 hours a day, every day.

Are you an amazing ball player with lots of experience?

No, im not good enough to make a varsity HS team after 10 years of practicing. But playing football is the only thing I love, its the only career id be passionate about and enjoy for more than 1 or 2 years.

What do I do coach?

sentient_loom,
@sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works avatar

Are you convinced that you can’t do it professionally?

CaptainSpaceman,

You said all I gotta do is “make some effort”

sentient_loom,
@sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works avatar

But you have to pick the right path to direct that effort.

TxzK,
