I hear it all the time from family members especially "your life will improve so much by getting a job", "you need a job then watch how your outlook changes you'll have friends people to talk to", etc. Many here have also posted examples of being told to "grow up and GET A JOB and everything will change" by normie cucks.

I am not talking about the cope that to get out of inceldom "just get a job bro and the girlfriend will come" I am talking about purely from a social isolation perspective. Is there any evidence at all from men in our situation that simply getting a job changes their mental health and their outlook from a "negative" one to a positive one?

I haven't worked a legal full time job in forever and i live quite comfortably on disability. I also study from home (online college courses etc) to keep my brain working, other than that pretty much my entire day is spent on the computer. Sometimes i go outside to get my niece and nephew from school if i feel like some fresh air, but really my expenses are pretty much covered by what i get. I get by just fine.

The main reason i haven't put any effort into getting a job is simply that every normie (and even incel) that i see that works constantly complains about it. "Fucking work man wish i could stay in bed all day", "Urgggh wish i didn't have to get up for work fucking hate people man". It seems the people who work hate it and get no real benefit from it. And the other reason is that when you are blackpilled or "awake" so to speak, dealing with normies all day seems unbearable. You feel like you are two steps ahead of these people mentally and you almost have to dumb yourself down to "fit in" with these people.

If i go to a job tomorrow i'll be the only one there without any social media, for instance. How do you incels who work deal with that? I'll feel like an anomaly in that sort of environment. But at the same time many of the working incels on here and lookism say that they do have friends, they do have social circles. It's done nothing for their sex life but they still do have friends and "bros" they chat with or make plans with.

So are there any incels or even lonely men period that have benefited or ascended socially and got lifelong friends from getting a job?
 
no, I literally think about suicide all the time while at my job.

Like I´ll be on autopilot and talk to everyone, but in my head all I´m doing is daydreaming about driving off a cliff or hanging myself from a tree.
 
No, my boomer parents said the exact same thing.
I ended up getting relentlessly bullied by my foid coworkers and quit after a few months.
 
Don't know how incels can deal with having jobs. I can't even muster up the effort to apply to them, though I did twice and were rejected, it only made me more apathetic towards the idea.
 
Really depends on job and coworkers. I was working for about a year but still had suicidal thoughts and depression.
 
it's just another temporary cope because it has fuck all to do with women and sex.
after a year or two at most it will stop having positive effects on your outlook, i hated it after 2 years.

deadend jobs/schools are basically pointless after a year or so, if you haven't gotten along with anyone there by then, you might as well just change it, in my place everyone I liked has left the company and everyone I hate has stayed ever since the beginning many years ago, so this place is just a hellhole now.
 
How do you guys who do work deal with the fact that everyone around you is fully immersed into the normie lifestyle and culture? Like they all have every social media app, all the lastest normie gossip from reality shows, etc. It seems like you would almost have to fake who you are to get through it, though i suppose it does depend on the job itself in some cases.
 
I've made friends at work. after i stopped working there i never talked to them again tho. at one job i hung out with them outside of work we went and blazed or went to the bar. it gives you some social interaction if there are guys your age there. in terms of dating i saw a lot of guys attempt and fail at trying to get with the girls. there was one girl i liked name mona she was like 30 and from iran but she looked 20s. i used to fantasize about dating her. one day we got to work all day together alone and we talked and she seemed to not think i was a creep but of course nothing happened.
 
It helped me, but i have to mention that i like my job, wich is not the case for most people.
 
depends on the job, your state can be better or it can be worse

Well my coworkers were mostly middle age women and couple of +35 male teachers. However young females hated me for my cold and arrogant demeanor.
 
wageslaving increases your loneliness
 
If its a job you genuinely love, then its worth doing. But most people don't do jobs they love, and a significant proportion do jobs they actively hate and despise.

If my "job" was being a diving instructor teaching diving to sexy tourists on a beach in Hawaii, I'd be at work 6am every morning.
 
It can help by paying your copes, but that's it. Don't expect people to like you more.
 
It sure as shit gives you something to do all day so you forget you're even lonely
 
My only social interactions are through my work and my gym

The only kind of "friends" i had at work just used me cuz they were lazy and made fun of me. But back when i was young and in very good shape a few girls did hit on me but i was too socially retarded to pursue them and i was scared of my mom.
The money does help with copes.
 
It's a double edged sword. It gives you something to focus on and gives you social interaction but your colleagues will also remind you of how they've succeeded by having children and how you've failed.
 
For me personally it only helps with not being homeless and having money for copes. My coworkers don't talk to me and there are days where I can go without saying a single word to anyone. It's usually days like those where I get heavily depressed and want to kill myself. I look on with envy at the conversations normies have and get so damn jealous. :feelscry:
 
I had one mutt lesbian make fun of my dead cousin for dying from heroin. too bad the place was overtly black or I would've only got a slap on the wrist. glad I left that hellhole.
 
No, it does not help, if you are an introvert by nature it's worse in a way.
 
Working with normies can be draining. I literally live a double life at work, if you were to watch me there I'd be considered a normie. I guess I'm just good with people in general, but on the inside I hate interacting with them. I generally gravitate towards the older people, they typically aren't as self absorbed and narcissistic, we talk about stuff like lawncare, renovations, cars, etc l. It's not bad tbh. Ideally when it's all said and done with my schooling, I'll be the one calling the shots at work. I won't really be taking any orders per se. The worst co-workers are old foids. They're usually bitter because they're married to a man they resent, by not being Chad. So they get fat and cope with wine and popping pills, bitching about their lives to the other bitter, old foids. Pissed they can't atttact young Chads anymore. It's lifefuel to know they're more miserable than me.
