Is it normal to think people who want a job are losers?

I think anyone who aspires to any degree to work for anyone beside themselves is a loser (temporary situations excluded).

OK, OK, some people have to have a job to support things while they get to the point of self-employed or self-sufficient, but if that's not your goal, if working under someone else is your goal or is OK with you, then IMO you're a loser.

Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful for the losers. They must exist. But they're still losers.

IIN?

Calling someone else a loser because of their personal choices in life - choices made both out of necessity and just plain preference - makes you a loser to me.

Do you work? I guess not. How do you live? Do you live off the government? If so, us losers are paying for you to live. Be grateful, you asshole.

And this is where the phrase 'money grows on trees' comes from. Trees=losers.

What kind of logic is this? XD

I don't think I've ever heard trees being described as losers :/ it makes me kind of sad... They don't even have the physical capability to speak, let alone conceive a witty comeback. Poor guys...

How the hell am I supposed to pay off college? The losers are the ones who want to be spoon fed their entire life without having to work hard to achieve the things they desire. Not all of us want to be self employed or want to run our own business. People who want jobs are the responsible ones who are taking charge of their life; the people who sit around on their asses and ridicule other people for the efforts they put forth are the real losers.

Besides paper, (potentially) worthless cash, what do you provide for yourself? Hm?

I use that money to pay for food, housing, electricity, gas to fuel my vehicle, and hundreds of other things. Good luck trying to pay for anything in life without "worthless cash" you yuppy moron.

Loser.

Loser or not, the large checks that I get handed twice a month, that allow me to do pretty much anything I want make it feel like winning every time.

I have the ability to hunt and grow my own food, build my own shelter, make my own clothing, and live completely independent of any other humans influence (as this was how I was raised). If the world somehow collapses, I can easily transition into this lifestyle, even having land to do it on!

However, I am not going to be some loser that barely gets by because he refuses to put a little bit of effort into making his surroundings better! I can take care of the people I love, because I put in the time to be able to do so. What can you do? Society runs off of paper money, have you ever tried to "barter" for medicine? They wont take you goats or your chickens!

He doesnt need to "barter" for medicine, he "makes" his own!

In some parts of the world they still use leeches to suck blood out of someone when they get "sick", apparently they dont know instead of making things better it just makes it much, MUCH worse.

But then again if you pray hard enough jesus will come down and miracle your ass healthy again I guess.

Don't you know that leaches only suck out the bad blood? I though that was common knowledge haha. And ya if Jesus was going to start miracling people healthy he is certainly letting the line build up!

I think anyone who thinks poeple working are losers,Is a pathetice loser who proboly is too lazy to get one himself and a worthless piece of krap fucking himself alone in his parents basement till the day he dies and is to lazy to even attempt to get a job of his own . So yes make fun of the working class and the poeple attempting to find work . I think we all know who the worthless one is here since everyone who trys to find a job is worthless in your eyes . Get off you butt and go look for work you stupid bum ! Do not call the rest of us worthless just becuase your a lazy idiot who likes mooching off other . God I hope you are never able to apply for aid becuase I would hate having to pay for you since you clearly think hard work is a bad trait . You are what is ruining this world and I find it insulting you would luagh at anyone trying or presently working just becuase you are lazy.

Yeah, cos having the stress and responsibility of self employment/owning your own company is so much fun.

I'm self employed (sole trader). It doesn't feel like winning. It feels like a pain in the arse having no set holiday time, having to constantly worry about job security if I lose a client, having to worry about all the tax stuff. And my stuff is fairly straight forward. I've seen people with actual companies that they own (small busineses) and its that shit amplified plus more.

I see nothing loserish about people who who do not work for themselves.

i agree with you! i see my boss everyday stressing about money, bills, stock and whatnot, and after a while i guess it's too much because he started losing it. I love not having to worry about everything else then doing my job and doing it wright, it's so much easier and i am a lot happier than he is.

It's only as stressful as you make it.

And what exactly is your line of business?

People pay for what I do or have, or I barter. Mostly though, I work for ME, I make and get my food, clothing and shelter.

I think bum would have been a better word. The OP considers begging for quarters on the street as being his own boss, And the rats he kills in the alleyways to be "making" his own food, and the oil stained rags he stole from the dumpster as "clothing".

Yes sir this person doesnt any crap from the man and is totally "self made".

To the person who created this post - I don't think you will get on well with that attitude. Nobody here respects you and by saying arrogant shit like that, you convey the small person you are. I don't judge but you sound like a complete fucktard to me. Good luck with your endeavours. EVERYONE deserves at least that much grace.

Everybody is working for under someone. Even if you got your own business you got to listen to the costumers and please them otherwise your business will go bankrupt. Of course having your own business might bring you more money, but at the same time its a bigger risk, and some people can't take that risk, either because they don't have enough money to start with or because they got family who depends on them and they need steady income, not risky one. Before calling anybody a loser, first become a winner.

No, I don't think they're losers.

Personally I don't want a job because I'm still in school, and I'll be DAMNED if my parents think I'm going to waste my whole life working.


Sure I want a job, but a nice, quaint one.

Are you kidding me? Lol

Wow. Someone has a stick up their rump.

People work hard to get where they are. Someone who enjoys their job and gets a good pay is nowhere near a loser in my book.

Do you even have a job?

Hell no I don't have a job, that's the whole point. I work for no one but myself and even when I work for myself I do what I want and get paid for it. Paid can mean fed, clothed, warm and cash. You just have to be smart enough to get it all how you want it, not let it control you.

If that happened do you really think having some digital wealth would mean anything? No, all that would be valuable would be resources and practical skills.

So... how do you prove your existence then?

Are you self-supportive, have a job, or do you rely on others to provide for you?
Comment Hidden (show)
It's fine to work for yourself, but it's not for everyone. For example, some people have a passion for occupations where that's not really possible, such as aerospace engineering or math research. Also, some people have difficulty running their own businesses, either because they find it easier to be given tasks than to manage their own, or because they're physically or mentally disabled. Some people, like me, have medical expenses (or a spouse or child with medical expenses) which pretty much require an employee insurance plan to be affordable (individual health insurance plans are generally shittier than group ones).

I'm really, really glad my fiancé has a steady job, because we can afford my medication and doctor's appointments because of it. The fact that we know that he gets paid regularly (which often isn't the case with freelance work, art, etc) means I don't have to ration my medication like I used to.

In conclusion, if you think scientists, people who support their disabled spouses, mathematicians, and astronauts are losers, I can't help you.

I think I understand what your saying, but you really made yourself look like an idiot (don't know if that was your plan or not if it was, good job!) Your saying these people are losers because they don't want to be there own boss and have there own business, but instead would rather work for others.

If everyone could and did work for themselves and had their own business, then how would that work? I mean for example, if you were the owner of your own restaurant then you would need someone to cook the food, take orders and all that other stuff. But of course, if everyone had there own business why would they take a job working for a place like that when they have their own business to worry about? That really goes for just about majority of the businesses out there. I'm not saying all of them because there are businesses that require no other employees in ordered to run it but most of them. Without these so called "losers you were mentioning then half of these business owners wouldn't even have a business and if they did then they would just end up failing because of the lack of "losers" needed to run that business. I mean with the statement you made you just basically called teachers, educators, police officers, firefights, doctors, and other people losers because they do in fact work for other people.

It is normal for you to think that all people who want jobs are losers just because that's your opinion and how you see things. Bottom line your opinion was and is stupid.

The way I see it. Self employed people still work for the public ie. Their potential customers. So we all lose. Just saying.
Comment Hidden (show)
Don't know where the OP is going but I think he's saying:

A] LOLOLOLO U SUCK CUZ U WORK JK TREROLOLOLOLOL

B] The people that work for others are not self-motivated enough to accomplish what THEY want but instead take a job to trick themselves into believing they are accomplishing something.

C] People don't want to work. No one does. The only reason why they work in an office to pay for a house is because they don't want to work out in a field, sweating like a pig on the 4th Of July to BUILD that house.
