How do so many people work so hard for their whole lives?

How do so many people work so hard for their whole lives? Why is working so much more painful for me than it is for others? Is it my personality? Is it my IQ? Is it how I was raised? Is it my lifestyle?

    Humans are creatures of routine & repetition. We can cope with pretty much anything if we accept it as necessary/inevitable and then get used to it. People get too many glimpses at a life where they would not have to work so hard, hence it becomes harder to accept it or forge that initial routine. So the last two really.

      Indeed. And the shortened version for you, OP: YOU'LL GET USED TO IT

      >get five days or so off of work
      >work is the fucking worst thing ever next time you do it

        Kinda like going back to school after a long break, yeah. Except we're forced to go to school and I could just say "fuck it, I quit" at work lol. Bad thing is if you ever get too far out of the groove, it's one hell of a hard time getting back into it

    It's not less painful for others. They're just better at dealing with it.

      This is not true, some people genuinely enjoy doing work that others would never want to do. Of course, there're disciplined people who would do whatever whether they like it or not but this is not always the case and most successful people in their fields actually liked doing whatever they did and didn't find it that painful.

      comes down to energy levels. When I have top tier health I want to build businesses, get girls, work 100 hours etc.
      When I'm sick, I dont want to do shit

    industrial revolution, politicians corrupted with money, monetary policy shrinking purchasing power making you work harder for less, then post industrial revolution brainwashing brainwashed everyone into being mindless slaves working for valueless money and consuming near valueless products made by other slaves while the poor and middle class areas grow and the rich or fancy areas shrink but get nicer and everywherebelse gets uglier and now the nice parts of every 1st world country costs a million dollars so only the upper class can get in, bringing the whole post industrial brainwash full circle because now theres even more pressure to work hard for the same life boomers had for free because of the spoils of the industrial revolution and the world wars

    "Find a job you enjoy and you will never work a day in your life."

    It's a truism and it's true. I won't tell you my job, because it has to be different for everyione. It is not wonderful every single minute, but overall, I get paid to do what I'd rather do than anything else.

    Decide what you would enjoy doing, and find someone to pay you for doing it.

      I honestly feel the same way as OP. related to what this anon said
      the things that I would like to do for a living are generally the things that pay you the less, or are much more difficult to make a living off.

      I play several music instruments and I like playing with other people, but if I was to become a full-time musician it would probably suck. I'm in academia getting my PhD in a humanities degree, most people in my department get jobs, but I know it's gonna be a painful ride (less than being a musician though)

    People seem to be bred for this boring fruitless existence. They aspire to the same inane lifestyle as their parents. Breeding, a home, a vehicle. boring and stupid. The perfect cattle. Self-disciplining and requires little motivation.

      Peasants were bred like this for millennia. Aristocrats had long lineages of doing things differently.

        I agree, and I think the fruits of these systems are displayed all around us. Bunch of dumb drones turning wrenches and sending memos and picking fuit and arresting their fellows, while the elite enjoy whatever they do.

          Not because theyre slaves. Because they are born predisposed to DOING THAT. They fall out of the womb looking for a vocation that suits them.

            Yep. The born and bred peasant is okay with lowly toil. You, on the other hand, will quickly be driven to rob a bank or commit suicide.

              In older times yes. It is unthinkable to join in that mess. Now, I can NEET. Suicide is still on the table, however.

                Well nowadays crime has changed a lot. It's still around, but honestly it's so streamlined and slick that it's hard to distinguish from running any other business a lot of times.

                Interesting notion. Guess everybody has to stay modern. Policing certainly has got physical crime covered. Video everywhere. DNA evidence. Phones acting as GPS tracking devices etc. Crime pays if you are in the right group i imagine. Nothing either of us could establish on our own, not me at least.

                One kid for example set up a company, used it to lease a fleet of trucks, then sent all of them to be sold back at his Eastern European shithole.
                Got 1 year.
                Had enough crypto to live comfortably ever after.

                Word of warning though, this was a smart, energetic, capable individual. That's what I mean, someone like him would do well in business of other kinds too.

    I don't work hard. I might work efficiently for good money but the less you work the more you are paid in this world, like I only ever got tired from going to and from work, never from working. I pick up hobbies to fill the time. Only at times I didn't have much money because I used it to live well. Better than being someones bitch.

    Idk. Every job I’ve had has made me suicidal. I’m not money or material motivated at all, so the surplus “benefit” of modern wage labor does little for me, especially given the suicide-inducing “work” that’s open to me. Luckily I’ve managed to find basically an indentured servant work exchange arrangement where my basics are covered in exchange for no more than 20 hours of interesting and varied work a week. I have also taken on part time mechanic work to pay for things not covered, but again, it makes me want to die when there. If it paid more—a lot more—maybe I’d begin to feel like I could reasonably and quickly attain luxury items, but the wage just isn’t high enough to do anything meaningful so it sucks ass. If I’m ever threading with full time wageslavery again, I will try homelessness first and then probably shoot myself
