    I hate when ppl give sum stupid ass advice w/o knowing Your situation...

    "Just get a different job... Just get a job closer to You ..."

    Most of us are huminerals and it's not simple as those people say it is.

    The middle class is a joke 😭 😔 to the corporate overlords n the gov does nothing to fix this...

    Empathy. A lot of people who give such advice don't have it. And while I don't know your situation, I, too, can relate to working hard my whole life and still having nothing. I sincerely hope you can find peace amongst the madness.

    Also, eat the rich ^_^

    Being middle class is actually being gangbanged by both corpos and the state. One sees you as a simple pawn that can be exploited and the other considers you to be a rich guy that must be heavily taxed

    I goto work knowing there should be some class solidarity. Unless there is a EO in your title you're with us, sorry. The wealth gap between the rich and the extreme rich is enormous.

    Unfortunately, the haves don't see it that way and lord over everyone with their "fancy teslas" or what ever the dum shit they think is a status symbol.

    Why would the government do anything? The government benefits from your wage slavery.

    This is why we have unions and revolutionary groups.

    Ye... Idk, in US they was quite successful at disassembling (many*) Unions... And they do their best to keep folks from unionizing.

    Does Sweden have unions btw?

    Yeah we do, it's taken for granted that all workers are part of a union, it's how we do minimum wage instead of having a law about it.

    Sounds like they don't have to much time for that... Because of work

    I find it difficult to believe that most people don't have a spare 30/45/60 mins in their day where a hobby can be pursued.

    People will spend that time scrolling social media, or watching TV, but then complain that they don't have enough time for their own hobbies or well-being.

    The 5 day, 40 hour working week, is definitely outdated and I would argue for change, but people don't help themselves on this particular topic. Get a life, get some hobbies.

    When you get older, you start to understand physically having time for something and mentally having time for something. Most people DO in fact manage to find half an hour to an hour for themselves a day, but need to spend that time trying to unwind or de-stress from an already busy life. Pursuing a hobby during those precious few moments will just add to the already busy day and make things more stressful.

    Sometimes you just want to sit down in front of your TV or PC for an hour and not talk to anyone or have any obligations before getting back to the grind, and that's the only thing keeping you sane.

    Oh sure getting 30 minutes a day to yourself is amazing. How generous of our corporate overlords to give us 30 minutes!

    Yeah lemme just hop into my time machine and hit reset so I can have time to do more than just have a quick wank and an hour of gaming before I go to bed for my minimum 5hr sleep.

    Move to a place closer to your work, or look for a new job closer to home.
