Why I'll Never Work Full Time Again

[@triggerhappy522]

these jobs do not pay enough , wages are low, bills are high. I work 9 hours , I get off , and can't do anything I enjoy. I have to do chores, cook, clean, and sleep. sometimes I don't sleep because my brain is too wired from work. or i don't clean because I am too tired. sometimes i wont even eat ...

@T Marie I actually have been doing better now. I have been resting more, and I skipped morning showers and skipped doing my makeup in the morning. I save so much time now and I don't clean as much as I used to because I don't make as much of a mess now . things seem to be more tolerable now and I have a little extra time in my day to have some fun. I'm doing okay now! :D

Trigger Happy update?

[@triggerhappy522]

@@GooseBurt UPDATE: I have completely changed and remodeled my life. It still could use some improvement, but my time management skills are INCREDIBLE now. My house is organized, kitchen is always spotless, I'm cooking gourmet meals everyday for dinner, and my makeup is always done for work everyday. I also get plenty of sleep and can perform better at work now. the key is to create a schedule for yourself that works for you and to follow it the best you can. I also have made my diet healthier and eat less food that "bloat" me because feeling bloated makes you sluggish . I also take caffeine or chew nicotine gum to give me a boost during the day if I'm feeling unmotivated . I also take melatonin at night so I can get sleep and it has helped me significantly. So far this has worked the past 6 months and after a little experimenting I'm doing great. I want to find a way to incorporate exercise into my routine. that might prove to be a challenge but I hope i can find something that works.

I am being called lazy when I say I hate working 8 hours a day. We are all expected to waste our life on work, forcing us to work for some shitty bosses who only care about money. I hate having to deal with complainting customers when I in reality don't give a shit if they're unsatisified. When I'm finished at work I'm too tired to do anything rest of the day. This has caused me to become depressed of thinking I have to live this way for 40 more years (I've tried several jobs, I've hated them all) Just because I hate working doesn't mean I'm lazy. It just means I've opened my eyes and don't want to belong to the brainwashed people who think working till you're 65 is the only right thing to do. We are all different, let us live the way we want to. If you love working that's fine. You can keep doing that. If you hate working and have other priorities, that should also be fine.

[@StuartOden]

Either find something you love doing, or start a business. It feels a lot less like "work" when one of those two conditions are met.

I hear it all the time that it was not wise to quit. Payroll monthly, vacation paid. Four weeks a year vacation? I couldn't work to wait these vacations. On weekends we didn't work, but that's not enough to recover. I did nothing productive outside work, just sleeping and hating for mondays. I was quit in april and now I am free to do my life.

Working less is less stress on the person I work part time and I already don’t like the job I might find something else I can’t imagine going full time again I am looking into different side-hustles at the moment. I can’t put all my eggs in one basket especially if it’s only a job cause you never know when you might get fired. The job I am at will want me to go in more early and work more hours which is full time but it’s not for me and I am not sure if I will be around at the job.

I *"quiet quit"* about a month ago. You're hearing from a person who is always on time, never calls out, comes up with ideas on how to make things better at meetings, and guess what..it was rarely noticed, if they did end up doing it, I never got the credit. They just didn't give a isht. This has been going on since 2015 at this job. So now I'm like "Peter" from the movie "Office Space" I do just enough to make it look as though i'm working, but not enough to go above and beyond like I used to. I feel better, and now I take the time to do the things I wanna do like with my grands. I even call out! *(something I never used to do)* If I think I need a mental health day, i take it, it's liberating. I'm over it.

I recommend reading the Entrepreneur Revolution. Before the industrial revolution, most people were entrepreneurs, whether the were farmers, bakers, blacksmiths, etc. (that's why Baker and Smith are common last names... ). But then the industrial revolution hit, and there was a shift in the way work was done. It was more efficient to have factories. We are in the tail end of the Industrial Age, and it shifting back to entrepreneurs and small businesses due to the power and scalability through the internet. If you feel stuck in the 9-5, remember that there a lot of other options out there, you just have to look for them

[@lonewilf7938]

I'm seriously thinking about living this way. I am actually still on call from my job at a warehouse but haven't worked in 3 weeks. I also have a part time job on the weekends. I am starting to see how much better it actually is to just work part time instead of working 60 hours a week the way that I was. I was so depressed and frustrated working all those hours and for what? I don't have a family to care for My vehichle is paid off, I don't pay rent anymore or have a house payment but I still have a place to sleep. So why the hell should I have to work more than part time if I don't want to as long as I not hurting anybody or asking for handouts. Why should I work 40 years for some asshole who will probably just tell me to piss off in the end. Fuck that noise! I don't really need a bunch of expensive shit anyway or a lot of money. Anytime I can just sit outside on a nice sunny day and find peace of mind while everybody else is scrambling around trying to make ends meet paying for shit that I can do easily do without I consider myself the luckiest guy on Earth.

Can I have the same principal, same vps, same secretary, and same students? hehe I know it won't be the same students but students just as great as those were." Honestly the day would go by so fast.

yes its a trade off I use to work the 9-5 same old job which was 35 hours a week with travel it was 47 hours a week and the time you get home you have a few hours for yourself but you know in the back of your mind you have work tomorrow, Friday comes along you get that lovely feeling Friday rolls into Saturdays and you already know Monday is close by so it feels like your at work 24/7... it was hard for me to give up such a well paying job with great benefits like pensions sick pay etc. and it was a school so I even had 7 weeks holiday a year paid for but these days off was in the time which was good for them not me..

Hey brother, loved the topic of this video and was really interesting to hear your thoughts on life. I'm somewhat torn, in a perfect world I'd love to live somehwere with a relatively low cost of living and just have a house on a hillside, somewhere warm, not too far from the beach, and just chill, hangout with my dogs and do little hustles and work on passion projects to bring in a little bit of money to support necessities. That said I'm kinda comfortable in the states, like being close to friends and family so not sure I could ever move overseas to a LOCOL area and actually do that. I just recently sold my business and am kinda trying to figure out what I wanna do, do I just wanna do little hustles and do my own thing or go get a job? It's kind of a mindfuck not following the traditional path, we've been conditioned our whole lives a certain way so its kinda wierd to wake up, do some reading, hit the gym, come home work on a blog or some project, kind of a odd trying to adapt to that schedule even though that's the way I want to live. I imagine you probably know @brianphobos from Steemit, he and I metup a few weeks back and were hanging out at the beach for a day chilling and talking. It was cool connecting with them as he shares a lot of similar life philosophies as myself and sounds like you as well regarding chasing your dreams, keeping your schedule free to do what you want to do, etc. I wish he'd post more about that as I'm less into crypto these days but these topics are things that inspire me and fascinate me Not sure if you're a Joe Rogan fan but he's given some interesting talks on this on his show and in interviews and stuff about how he kinda believes this is why society is so messed up and why people are so unhappy, he talks of how from an evolutionary standpoint we were meant to run and jump and collect stuff and climb hills and were all going to offices doing shit we hate, sitting under artificial light, when we get home we are too exhausted to do anything, we watch some tv go to bed and do it all over again and it's just unhealthy for us.

Yo brother. I don’t know how I missed all your comments but I did for some reason. Anyway I think that if you have good friends and family all concentrated in one area then it’s hard to leave. I experienced that just now in New York even though I wasn’t super happy there. I still had good friends. But I had to make a call because of finances and I noticed that when I’m abroad I actually work much harder on my projects. In New York id work maybe 2-3 hours a day whereas in Thailand I’m working 8-12. Voluntarily. And this is with a COL at about 20% of what I was spending in the states. You don’t have to move, but if you want to be able to go into Monk Mode and focus on projects with zero distractions, it’s tough to beat moving to a place where you don’t know anyone and your cost of living is so damn low. I do kind of know @brianphobos as he’s left a few comments on my articles. Seems like he’s on the ball. At the end of the day man we all have to decide what we want. That’s the difference between winners and losers. The winners just know what they want. And yeah I know about JR too. I feel like we probably get our information from the same source but he just happens to have a podcast with millions of fans. Red pill stuff, nootropics, fasting, LSD... can’t say I’ve ever heard anything on there I didn’t already know. But it’s a good source to get it all in one place for sure. The guy is like a filter for Reddit. In a good way.

Did you ever audition for Survivor? My friend from high school was on the Amazing Race lol she also did beauty pageants and won Miss Texas teen, Miss Texas, and was runner up for Miss USA. Now she has her own company for models and pageant training. What a life huh?

[@StuartOden]

Nah never actually auditioned for anything. Should probably take an acting class first or something

[@handsomesquidward5160]

[@wanderingmirage]

[@StuartOden]

thamkssssssssss

[@AZITHEMLGPRO]

How’s it going in 2021?

[@iziahhooks7923]

I feel ya bout that cause sometimes it's a little too hard working for someone that may be a little too mean. If you are mean there'd be a harder time working for that person. But if you work with someone that you do like you'd have a better idea of what you're there to do. So yeah, I feel ya bout that.

[@StuartOden]

Yeah.. fuck mean people

[@naanviolence8260]

How do you afford rent and a car without working full time?

[@StuartOden]

This was an old video. I pay cash for used cars, currently working full time

[@J-luna]

Wish you the best. 😎

[@skwokokekeb812]

This guy looks like the fitness guy in the movie heavyweight lmao but good video working full time sucks

[@StuartOden]

ahahahaha that's hilarious people tell me that all the time

[@mikebilled2203]

I love you man

[@WalshY_]

You look so healthy here.

[@StuartOden]

A simpler time

[@richardgomez1151]

I youst to work 5 months a year 9h a day light work good company... At this time in a full time heavy job from 14h to 22h . Ruining my workouts. Ps i have my one home, gym my one house dont pay rent. I do pay for my food, gas, and suplements. At the time in a full time job just to join a few buks in the bak ...

[@StuartOden]

Yeah it's rough, gotta find a compromise

[@lloydfrancis9149]

The pandemic also proved that. Life is short don't waste it being miserable

[@MrSandro141]

You have the same views as I do, good video. how did it work out? Did you make an update video?

[@StuartOden]

No lol I ended up going back to work. I’m actually at work now. But I combine work with travel so it’s not all bad. And on the side I’m working on other things that will hopefully pay off big and allow me to not work anymore, or at least just work for fun if I want.

[@robertwilson7736]

I don't blame him it would be nice to have more time on your interests rather than being stuck somewhere you don't want to be ĺifes not a rehearsal

[@huntingfashiondolls3307]

i´m hating my situation, i´m like you, i make money several ways ,from home, i have a kid i also need time to take him to school and all that, the problem is, i went to work to a factory and met a guy, who is nice but i´ve tried to make him see a full time job doesn´t allow us to have time together and do fun things, but he is just set up his mind on that place! i quit 1 half years ago and he not only stays there, he is now "growing there" which means more time to work, extra hours and he keeps getting mad if i tell him he needs to put less life there, he justs gets pissed off!!!! i hate that !!!! we are supposed to start a tshirt business and he never has really time to do anything. i wished i never met him sometimes i just want someone who feels the same way as me and values time over "security" which this kind of job apparently provides.

[@StuartOden]

Get rid of him. Sounds like a loser

[@azeroholland2510]

This is so funny! Im watching your videos from oldest to new and just watched this one. You had no time for a nice edited video (but instead like most people using the excuses “no time” ) you made this quick video and it has more people wanna watch it. Werent you laughing hysterically when you found that out ahahahlolz Good for you!

[@StuartOden]

LOL that's a great point and something I've thought of many times and also one of the reasons why i stopped editing videos. I saw that this video got a ton of views when i was just sitting down and talking to the camera, while meanwhile the ones i spent 5 hours editing got 20 views. crazy

[@azeroholland2510]

Yalla Papi, yeah you ended most vlogs mentioning how many hours of editing you have done. What a though life you had to get this far! The vlogs made me feel like i was watching a documentary about your early tough hussle life. before you become a trilionaire and fat. Except that i watched it maybe ten years too early. Who knows what you will accomplish, you crushed it and made it this far. You kept your word. It is amazing. The vlogs seem a little sad, but you are trying so hard , it is really admirable. If Gary Vee watched your videos he would be proud! You motivate me and make me think about starting to make videos too. My english is bad im not a talker and I need to learn to be more shameless like you first.

[@azeroholland2510]

Hopefully you are ok and you will feel happy enough to upload a new video soon.. Your subscribers are not going anywhere anyway and we are excited and wait patiently! (There is nothing else we can do lol)

[@himanshu5379]

This guy has 940 videos? TF😳

[@StuartOden]

Yup. I started doing higher quality ones the past month or so but I’m getting kind of bored.

[@randymillhouse791]

You better get one thing straight and clear: You need to save and invest money over a long period of time to ever be able to retire. Non-grey-haired people like you don't understand this. Once you are in your 50's and have little saved and invested it's too late. I am a wage slave and I HATE MY JOB! But my wife and I save about 7K to 8K per month in our 50's playing CATCH-UP 4th QUARTER LIFEBALL! You do NOT want to be in this situation. MONEY IS EVERYTHING! Repeat that please. MONEY IS SECURITY and FREEDOM. Yes, it is EVERYTHING! So, you don't have the stomach to put up with BS, I get it. But you better learn to do so. The ONLY revenge is to SAVE AS MUCH FROM THAT MISERY AS POSSIBLE. And THAT, children, is the story of Human life.

[@sunglass4766]

Good video👍

[@StuartOden]

Good comment

[@onlyhis5870]

I like you. You’re smart. Forget acting though. Unless your gender is inverted and you like the blood of children, you won’t get very far.

[@StuartOden]

LOL it was just a passing fancy tbh, just wanted to avoid actual work. This vid was ages ago tho
