Op is still on a high that comes with doing literally anything new. His soul won’t last, don’t worry.

His job sounds chill as fuck. If your soul can’t handle that sort of work then what can it even handle

I worked a mailroom job with only about 3-4 hours of actual work a day. I was explicitly told I was free to spend any free time however I liked, so long as I stayed nearby.
I read books, gamed a bit, learned some programming and Linux server stuff… was pretty great actually. I only ever left that job because the offer was for twice as much pay. I often still miss the free time.

Right? Mine involves sitting in front of a computer. I'm thinking of getting a part time job at a moving company just so I can get some excercise

I’ve been writing software professionally for almost 15 years. I’ve never hated writing software, it’s something I really enjoy. But I’ve gotten to the point where I vehemently hate the industry. It’s horribly cutthroat, driven by pure capitalism and there’s never any incentive to do something cool or novel unless it grows profits in a quarter. The problem now, is that participating in the open source community is wading into a den of toxicity. So many people are using or contributing to open source software with the pure goal of financial gain, and they are toxic parasites. Scroll through comments in GitHub issues on popular projects and they are everywhere. What started as a fun way to collaborate on projects where people would work together to build cool things has turned into a cesspool of bickering. I’m tired. Tired of the industry, and tired of the fact that software has just become an idea for “get rich quick” schemes for so many.

Never said part time, Anon’s job just has a lot of downtime during the day
JustUseMint@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I interpreted 2-3 hours out of 8 as part-time but I see what you mean.
However, in America, absolute fiction getting decent benefits anywhere, nevermind a fucking mattress firm

Part time job

“Work is only like 2-3 hours out of the 8 hour day”
I.e. Top comment cannot read.

Kinda. It’s usually a bum that’s got the financial means to not have to resort to begging for money on the streets.

Had no idea supply chain managers made money like that

Who the fuck ever said being a neet was good? It’s the absolute shits, feeling like you’re unable to contribute to society, regardless if you think it needs to be burnt to the ground or not.

Having freedom and drive to do whatever you want is great, even if that means you spend a bunch of time just fucking about and getting high and watching TV.
On the other hand, a lot of the people that are dropping out like this are actually just depressed. They look like they’re doing the same thing, but they’re actually just self medicating and it sucks for them.
For some of these people, getting up and out the house, being forced to do a bit of exercise, and talk to people can help with minor depression.

NEETS don’t have any money while doing it. Don’t compare yourself to them.

They may be glorifying it to cope but actually feel miserable.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I think that’s the big difference. I’d love to do self guided projects and adventures. What I don’t want is to sit around too damn broke to go out

What was the “however” intended to mean in this

I remember one summer a long time ago, I couldn’t find a (good) summer job for weeks, while my girlfriend was already working at hers - felt like absolute useless shit, when she was packing her bag and leaving for work.
Of course I wouldn’t mind being a billionaire and not having to work, but probably would still do a few hours of “work” every day e.g. deciding investments, helping charities, in order to not fet bored.
