This has been on my mind for a while so I wanna say it. Maybe someone will be inspired or come to a realization
I keep hearing these people complain about working "hard" and not getting enough money. And this to me pisses me off because in most cases I've seen these people over value the value of money and underestimate the amount of work they should be doing.
I think the money follows the work you do. Work hard, get payed more. Work less, get payed less. Maybe if you think you're not getting enough money from your job it's you that's the problem.
Hypothetically, say you got hurt, you broke a bone or something. What if that pain that you claimed was a lot, is not actually a lot and that you just haven't experienced a lot of pain before. So why make a thing of it. It's the same with work. Maybe you just don't know how much you should be working. So why make a thing of it.
Real life example:
I worked at a fish market for my first actual job this summer. I started the same time as another guy and we both got min wage. Within 6 weeks later, I had already gotten 2 raises while he was still getting min. On projects, one example deep cleaning the food cooler, we were assigned to work together. And the amount of times I'd have to tell this dude to get back to work literally made me stress more than anything. No wonder he didn't get the raises and I did.
We get 0 brakes. Worked 11 hours a day. 6 days a week.
Get the job done well and done fast, then rest.
I've talked to people complaining about working 8 hours 4 days a week while they get to use their phone, have hours of downtime a day, get free food and drinks and get payed more than I do.
Don't work for the money. Work to improve yourself. Work for the work. You should be able to imagine yourself doing that work as volunteer work, not for the money. I'm not saying the money isn't nice. It certainly is.
I've had people tell me I should quit that job and work elsewhere because of the pay. Well, sorry I have better work ethics than you.
Your money should be earned. And actually deserved. You should be getting stressed and exhausted. That's part of working. It's healthier for your physical health, mental health, spiritual health, social health, and emotional health. I belive that a large part of the reason for the job crisis and mental health crisis is because people don't want to get up and do things. It limits and desensitizes you and the people around you even if you don't realize it.
That's basically it. If you get pissed at my opinion it's cause I was talking to you.
