Holy shit guys, I get the anti work rhetoric, but you're essentially saying "don't work hard for anything, just live by coasting". I really hope this pendulum stops swinging and finds a happy medium

Yeah, I don't really give a shit anymore. After covid, and seeing how my country treated it as political, and how people are disposable, why would I want to try? I have a job, they think I'm good at it, and it keeps a roof over my head.

I've been making other people large piles of money off of my work my entire adult life and I just don't care anymore.

I've had jobs where I didn't try before, and I just got super bored. My above comment isn't even necessarily regarding jobs, it's regarding putting in effort in life. It applies to personal projects etc too. I have an issue with procrastination because of my childhood, and I find it really satisfying when I can actually focus and get a project done.

If you get enjoyment out of doing fuck all, then more power to you, but myself and many others actually enjoy doing things.
