why do normies get happy when they find a job?

[torujo]

I have to say that most of those jobs are minimium wage

 

[Hunter]

forced positivity mindset.

 

[Hoppipolla]

I don't really get it either. Most jobs look quite depressing. Unless of course you have a really nice home life or something else in your life that you're working for/towards. But not everyone has that.

 

[SoCalSuifuel]

Because we are told that having a job is what gives you value in this consumer society.

 

[Fontaine]

Because their brain is high in feel-good neurotransmitters

 

[TheSlippwrySeal]

Are you NEET?

 

[EthnicelNL]

Because they need money to pay their bills probably. Childcels will never understand.

 

[Zesto]

Getting a job used to be one of the easiest things in the world. Didn't mean anything.

These days it's competitive. Uncertain future

 

[Darthmat]

Getting a better job means more cope items and food which helps deal with the shitty dystopia that is our world.

 

[Lebensmüder]

Because we are told that having a job is what gives you value in this consumer society.

High IQ

 

[VST]

Tbqh it's an odd feeling.
When normies don't have a job they're depressed because they have nothing to do, but when they do get one they cannot do anything but be depressed about the freedom they had during their temporary NEET period and wanting to go back.

I'm the same way tbqh.

[Henry de Montherlant]

Is there any other way to describe it? What is the end goal of the society in which we live? People derive meaning from the brands they own and the franchises they enjoy. Iphones, Disney movies, sweat shop made clothes flaunted for their embroidered logos, these are the things Americans care about.

 

[TheLonelyArchon]

I need money to not have to live with my parents who don't even have a room for me to stay in, be able to go do stuff other than rot in my room and have a car, as well as save/invest enough to be able to betabux in a poor country.

 

[acnescarcel]

because they enjoy cuckery of all kinds including wagecucking

 

[Hail The Bloatlord]

Because they have Stockholm Syndrom.

[MentallyBroken]

Cause people are brainwashed to think that careers are everything in life.

 

[Mainländer]

Cope. They have to believe it's something good, just like people pretend life is something good, because it's something you kinda has to do (unless super rich with parents who don't care or are dead).
