I’m not a fan of the “working for others” concept.
Never was.
I hate watching people sacrifice their individuality to jerk their bosses off and gargle whats left in front of their “peers” (omg they’re so ambitious… 🤢 🤮 ).
And for a long time I was a dumb, broke, social outcast– who hid behind the wantrepreneur idea because of this— and that wasn’t the right answer either.
Look–
climbing the 9-to-5 game after being an idiot for so long has definitely leveled me up, with skills and experiences and even socially.
So I won’t say it’s completely worthless, there’s some upfront value. 9-to-5s are the new college— but you gotta graduate sometime.
I was right:
CORPORATIONS ARE FOR ROBOTS.
I work with robots who think themselves people.
Sad part is, they imagine they’re innovative– every single one of them. They think they’re bringing something new to the table, and they’re stuck in that weird pimply life phase– where you can’t separate your ideas from who you are as a person…
… so any negative feedback has them gearing up for war (going to their work papa to snitch– manager).
Jobs create fearful environments, no matter the culture.
If you’re afraid of losing something, how can you be creative?
I get we can’t say literally whatever thought poptarts out of our mind– but not even the truth?
I’m not talking about politics, you anti-free speechers.
I’m talking about the CEO’s garbage ideas– or the partners disgusting attention whoring marketing tactics.
I can’t say– your writing doesn’t make any sense, these graphics look like they’re promoting porn print, and our “team-building” meetings are a weird collection of people holding their elbows just people watching.
What if I was hired to fix it?
Nope– it’s still got to be their idea.
Every single one of us needs to have something that can’t be taken– you should be RUTHLESS with it.
The truth is jobs are an easy escape. It’s nice to go somewhere, clock in/ clock out and not worry about hunting for a paycheck.
It’s nice… in the short term.
But the trade offs just aren’t worth it.
No role except the one you carve out for yourself– will let you be an individual. And the only way to be irreplaceable is to be an individual.
So, theres your answer.
You can like what you have, you can hate it– but know that you don’t really have anything. So you might as well commit to something you can own.
