This isn't directed at you, this is for the other dude, but also answers your question a little. The entire US was given checks during the pandemic, did it make you lazy?
That is an excellent analogy.
I mean, I spent a year wearing sweat pants and hardly leaving my house.
Because you were rolling in checks or because it was unhealthy to do so? Having worked full-time and part time as a freelancer, job burnout and needing recovery isn't laziness.
It was a joke... I was still working full time, just from home. And I didn't go anywhere because there was a pandemic going on and I didn't want to be around people. But the fact that I was 100% in sweatpants and lounging around the house for a year did feel lazy, but had nothing to do with the checks coming in from the government.
Hey I take umbrage. Sweatpants are a vital part of attire for WFH / home gym enthusiasts, even post-lockdown.
Fuck yeah it did. I was making the same on unemployment as I would have being at work. I wanted to stay laid off.
What you wanted to do and what you did are 2 different things. You're overworked and probably not doing a job that you want to do. That isn't laziness, that's job unsatisfaction.
Yeah, but that probably applies to a lot of people. Why would anyone choose to do all the bullshit (but necessary) jobs if they can get paid the same for sitting at home?
Is that what rich people do? Do billionaires sit home and do nothing? I think all of you saying it causes laziness aren't living your best lives.
Billionaires are sociopaths.
