We're All Living to Work - RIP Dave

If this was the last year of your life, how would you choose to spend it?
Would you work safely or take bold risks to live fully and achieve something bigger?

The system we live in is corrupted as much as possible. People just need to realize that today we could work half of what we work today and society would not collapse. We are being robbed out of our free time, dreams, money we earn in our jobs.

[@OGbqze]

A lot of people at my company choose to work 10-12-14-16 hours a day. I've said something to an older guy about how 8 hours is more than enough, and his response was typical. "Only 8 hours!? My last job we were working 12's like nothing and picking overtime on the weekends!". Not sure why Americans LOVE being corporate slaves. I personally believe 8 hours is too much. 4 would be ideal if we still work thpucal 5 days a week. But 2-3 days a week would be a more reasonable "work to life balance". Sounds crazy, I know. But it only sounds crazy because we've all been condition to the norms of todays corrupt, greedy, usury filled society.

I agree bro, I called out today so I could spend time with my family. I’ve talked to people who have told me they’d never call off because they feel it’s wrong and I’m like bro these companies don’t give a damn about you. You can work 12 hour days 6 days a week thinking it’ll lead to a better life only to die and have all that work go to waste. We don’t know what tomorrow brings so you have to live your life.

[@OGbqze]

@@BRXKN99 exactly. I guess it'd be difficult for a boomer to let that sink in after literally wasting their entire life away working 6-7 days a week just to blow it all on drugs, alcohol, gambling and slots.

I want to LIVE and CONNECT with people and that feels impossible in this hellscape world we live in today. But I am going to try. I am happy to work a few hours a week flexibly and on my terms, but there's no way I will ever accept this 40 hour, 5 days a week wage slave BS. What's worse is the pain of coming home to dead suburbia every evening, I never see my neighbours and there is ZERO sense of community. People just passing time in their houses until it's time to sleep and then do it all over again. I can't keep this up any longer. My life has lost all meaning and the drudgery is too much to bare.

[@steelearmstrong9616]

I think about death daily from the moment I wake up and have for years. This for me is what drives and gives life the meaning i need to keep living. My happiness came when I realised that life is meaningless regardless of what meaning and purpose you have in life. In the end nothing matters. Tomorrow is not promised. Tomorrow does not exist. Now is all we have. We are all winging it and we are all on the same sinking boat that inevitably ends in tragedy. We are just memories and memories are just brain tissue. When the brain dies consciousness dies and we will cease to exist. The truth about the human condition is that answers will never cure our fears, only acceptance will. It all about killing time until you die. Being human is mental health. Life is the ultimate form of cruelty. Remember that you are going to die. Don’t take life to seriously. Smile, you’re alive. For now ☠⚰

[@armourofgod6310]

No, we do exist after we die. We have souls and there is a Heaven and a Hell, the reason the world is what it is is because we live in a FALLEN WORLD. This world is run by Satan, and he makes you think that there is no hope and no God. We are sinful beings, since the beginning of time until now there has always been suffering and war, but this is only in this world. Now because of Jesus and what he did for us, you have a choice. accept him as Lord and savior and receive the free gift of salvation or deny him and spend the rest of your eternity without God...which means hell. This life is just temporary, the real life starts when we pass on.

[@yellowbird5411]

I think it's important for us to separate our own existence, goals, passions and thoughts from the "outside world." If all we do is concentrate and think about what is wrong with the world, we'll be wasting precious time that could be devoted to creating your own path, your own passions, your own opportunities. Let the world be what it will be. The entire world isn't bad or ugly. In fact most of the world and it's people are beautiful. We only hear about the bad. Please don't focus on that. That road goes nowhere but down. Turn your thoughts back on yourself and limit your exposure to all the videos and news that just suck the life out of you. There are wonderful videos to learn from, travel with, sing to, develop skills by, and it's very uplifting. From my chair I have gone snow camping, done walking tours through remote villages around the world, attended concerts, enjoyed travelling with van lifers, learned to manage when the electric goes out, learned about biking (and bought one). So many videos that are inspiring - let the world do what it will.

Facts

[@yellowbird5411]

Your activities and you work should pertain to you, your goals, your values, your family and those you care about. Don't let the corruption and deceit in this world seep into your private life. Keep it "out there" where it belongs. Do not get discouraged by other's behavior and efforts to control you. If the news upsets you, stop watching it for awhile. The news is focused on troubling things, most of which we have no control over. If the news only reported on positive things, we would feel totally different about our world. But no one reads positive news, so they use it as fodder for readership. It's not that most of it may not be true, but we don't see the forces at work to fix the issues, and we are left with a "bad news dump" every day with no solutions. Just find value in your own life, and create diversions away from the news. Grab someone and find an adventure every weekend or so. Go hiking, swimming, fishing, do a day trip, see some stuff. 💗💗

This was a good tribute to Dave, man. Wherever and whatever he might be now, I am sure he is probably proud of you for letting his passing and the closing of his life be a catalyst to open yourself up (this video seems a lot more “sincere” and first-person than your other videos, I just checked now) in a new way. I find that sometimes in death there is new life, at a creative level. I do not know why. And I don’t mean to say that to celebrate the passing of anyone. I’m just saying it cause if you went from 50 subs to 200+ also in like 3 days, I bet it’s a weird feeling of almost synchronicity. But I like to see it as the energy of those we appreciated flowing through us or through the world, and then helping us or being with us more than they could in physical form.

This is what youtube should. Thank you for being a real human being in this sea of bots. I feel like you sound like you should treat yourself to some nature. Go hike where there are mountains and trees. It heals. Rest in peace, Dave.

i worked at a store in the mall selling womens shoes during college. during my time i worked with a guy the same age as me. he was pretty shy and had a hard time fitting in, even within the store. I tried to talk with him a few times but i was mainly just focused on getting that money to pay my bills at the time. fast forward to 2020 i was laid off the year i graduated college and i totally forgot about him and the job. then either a year or two later i see his obituary and found out he took his own life. Turns out he dropped out of college and basically just threw in the towel. Idk man the world is a messed up place. That shit changed my outlook on life and i try to be nicer to people now, in life and in the workplace. Many are very unhappy and sad with the way their life has turned out.

[@ed6852]

That’s why I live my life the way I want all the time I think of my job as something I need to do to live the life I want. But no job is that important to me that I’m going above and beyond constantly. I will when I feel the need to but other than that I’m doing things the least stressful way possible and I live for the hours of the day I have off to spend with my family.

[@BeingBrandy]

So true. Thank you!

I quit working for the man 3 years ago and do my own thing super quasi part-time if at all anymore. For fun I tried going back to my job as an assistant to my replacement and honestly I couldn't force myself to do it anymore for all the pay in the world. We have one go, each second that passes is unique and you just can't spend your time where have to give those precious seconds up for crap pay, or even good pay, because those seconds are irreplaceable.

[@Marcus-rg7bg]

I just said screw it. Moved in with boomer dad, barely work, got rid of almost everything i had and just sit in room and pout and whine. Atleast i feel more free. I go outside and suck in nature. Ahhhh, the smell of chlorine in the morning and sirens blasting is so awsome. Welp, back to bed now.

[@user-yn9mx7xu1r]

I think about death all the time. Since 12 years ago, I have seen many people that I knew died. My dad passed 12 years ago and now my mom is sick. The prospect of becoming an orphan hits hard. I have always been their little girl that they loved and protected. Not having them around makes me feel lost and empty. Life is just a game. It’s never had a meaning, I just thought that it did because I was young and naive. I was a fool for thinking that life was this serious thing. Everybody says that we are all gonna die one day. But I think that WHEN we die matters a lot. I see older people in their 60s or 70s who still have their parents around. But I lost my dad when he was 62. My mom came down with dementia is her early 60s. I see people my age who go shopping, travelling and things with their parents and I think to myself why am I not blessed with that? People play with their grandkids, yet my parents never got to know my son. My son will never get to know them either 😢 I probably know as many people who have passed as people who are alive. I thought this is what life would be like for people in their 70s and 80s. But I’m only in my 30s now and feeling so empty 😢😢😢 Edit: sorry for the rant.

[@bradpnw1897]

Don't be sorry for the rant. You are one of the healthier ones for choosing to talk about it instead of just bottling it up instead of just trying to keep going at any cost. I'm very sorry to hear about your dad and your mom being sick very sorry to hear about that. Both my brothers died and my dad is dead also but I'm glad my mom is still alive. I'm really appreciative of my step-brother being still alive and my sister bang still alive. I have seen so many times in this world that this world just seems to eat up the good people bit by bit and will devour them all praising and awarding the people that are mean conniving and backstabbing then every place I've worked at are almost every place it just the only thing that matters is power and money and doesn't matter how nice you are doesn't matter how good of a person you are none of that stuff seems to matter. That is why I am changing my life and going back to school this winter quarter to become a drug counselor and to get my AA and behavioral health psychology. I don't care if it doesn't pay much it's a calling it means something very deep to me. Counselors for some of the people that helped save my life when I was lost in drugs. Been clean for almost 2 years now. Ironically the hardest part for me about getting clean long-term has been realizing that where I'm living outside of Seattle that so many people are rich or upper upper middle class that if you're not making a bunch of money your struggling to get by. I am incredibly grateful that I've got a room that I rent that I can afford and I can afford it even when I'm going to college. That was the one thing about being on drugs for years that taught me was that taught me to be tough and it taught me that I'm all right being alone and that life is hard. I find a way to keep going bit by bit day by day and did not let it overwhelm me. I wish you the best and hope that you don't let things overwhelm you and if you ever need anybody to talk to let me know. God bless you 🙏

[@user-yn9mx7xu1r]

@@bradpnw1897 Thank you very much for listening. It really meant a lot to me. It is so nice that you’ve saved yourself from using drugs. It takes a lot of courage to do so. I sometimes think of drinking a lot of alcohol so I can forget my pain, but so far haven’t done so. What bothers me the most is the financial hardship that my parents endured but still tried to provide for me and my brother. I remember my dad’s face when he finally could buy a decent car. Now that I am financially stable, they are not around so I can provide for them. Money and materials don’t mean anything without human connection. It is so good that you have found meaning in your call to go back to school to become a counsellor. That’s what matters. Having a roof over your head no matter how big or small is what you need to keep going. I am glad that it’s working out for you. I am sure because of your personal experience with drugs you have a lot to bring to the table when counselling your clients. I am also regretful that I didn’t understand what my dad went through when he lost his parents at a young age. He was 10 when his dad passed. He said that he would run in the streets crying and asking God to please return his dad just for one more day. He also lost his mom when he was in his late 20s before I was born. Whenever he remembered his mom his eyes would get watery. I never know what it meant. I now understand it and wish that I would know back then so that I could provide some comfort to him. Despite that, he always lived in the moment. Or maybe I thought so because he tried to look strong. You also mentioned something that resonates with me a lot. That mean people have great lives in this world. It seems that the meaner you are the world will be kinder to you. Those who did wrong to me and my family are healthy and alive despite being 15 years older than them.

[@DarkDruid7]

I'm living at home in my thirties working 60 hours a week to pay off my debt. I haven't had time for my hobbies and, even if I had the time, I wouldn't be interested in them. Someday I'll move out and move to a different state with a lower cost of living. I'm going to try to pump a lot of money into my retirement account. Afterward, I can just coast and work 4 days a week. No hope for a relationship, but that's fine. I've been alone my whole life.

[@imeverywhereandnowhere56]

Yep. Figured this out when I was 23. I'm now 46. Actually I figured it out a bit earlier but the realization hit me at 23. I avoided working as long as possible. But eventually I had to get a job. Because they would have cut off my unemployment benefits.

[@AnenLaylle]

subbed. Facts bro. I'm a university professor and I really just want to be a farmer. Weird how that worked out. Anyways, I started a farm a few years ago and it's actually working. I may be able to be a farmer as a fulltime job within 5 years.

My cousin Bryson had a brain aneurysm at 18 and died in 2011 and than to make things worse his dad had cancer.

[@redtsun67]

I think this is how people have lived for most of human history. We had a period of time where we were living in a golden age of liberty and accomplishment, where a man could pull himself up by his bootstraps all the way to the top, but those times have passed. Now we live to work so we can live for nothing, and they look at you like you're insane for wanting to kiss up to the business end of a 12 gauge. Like telling a man trying to wake up from a nightmare to go back to sleep.

[@hey_youtubeim_back2159]

Rest easy Dave.

Once you give your life to Christ, your perspective on life changes, you have positive attitude towards life. Pre conversion, I was a depressed individual, but now it's so much more fulfilling thanks be to Christ

Grind at a job, or grind on your own project. Either way it's a grind. Vacation is what we all need more of. Time of reflection. Time to know ourselves. Time to heal.

[@markmace1824]

My condolences about your friend! That’s rough and I know the feeling ! I am 59 and lost. Many people and friends in my life. Just keep on plowing on young man, but slowly figure out an exit plan to get out of the rat race some company that doesn’t give a rats ass about you! Find your passion and start your own business the way to go man! Remember the simple words: if you do not live your own life, you be a slave for someone else’s game and life you either make your own decisions, or someone will make them for you! End of story! God bless you man keep God close to you! 🇺🇸🤙✌️💪💪💪💪

The real shame here is that everyone seems not to value those who do what needs to be done, knowing that they will die. There's more honor in continuing bag the groceries, pull the carts, and help customers, than there is in trying to be Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk.

When I was in high school I watched a guy retire after 30+ years working the ovens at a small town bakery. Min wage, no medical. That was the moment I said to myself I don't want to do this the rest of my life. I got into a good college at the last minute and now I'm 63. Work can be stressful no matter what you do, there are ah's everywhere. I know it gets depressing sometimes but I would rather work than to sit around. Sorry for the guy.
