This is why i hate jobs applications and job interviews. They always assume you want a career in whatever field their job is in. And they always assume you REALLY want that job for some reason other than money. I really want to just tell them that I don’t want the job they are offering, I just want a job so i can eat and pay my bills.

[@-ShootTheGlass-]

So true.

[@nathanielloveschrist5779]

I would hire you if I owned a company because honesty often reveals character and hard work. A manager rarely says you are here to work, get paid, and pay your bills, so let's do it. Only sales managers say that to their sales dept, but then they hold back all bonuses raise,s and promotions, so I don't work in sales unless the base pays enough to compensate for the commission they won't give me that I earned because they steal hours and deliver from payroll. Take admin access to payroll and schedule away from managers and save the company. Let an AI bot do it instead, and everyone will get paid. If not, then own a business because jobs are for the birds under managerial slavery.

I don’t remember ever wanting a career. Even now I don’t want a career. I want a job that pays as much as possible for as little effort as possible. My passion is reading books, writing, and walking in the woods and visiting new places, meeting new people. That’s all I’ve ever wanted to do. So I’ve worked really hard to progress in an industry I don’t particularly feel excited about but has now rewarded me with being very good at it and being able to “demand” things that employers will actually give me. So now I work a part time home office job and I get paid very well compared to the effort I put in (it’s taken a lot of years hard effort to be in a position where I can do the thing standing on my head). The people are nice, the job’s easy, I hang out with my dog in my office until the bell goes at 4pm and then the rest is mine. And this is fine for me. It’s enough.

As a med student, I can assure you that 60 hour work weeks are what's considered cushy hours. 80 hours are the norm for some surgeons and many residents. It's why a lot of younger doctors are trying to unionize to fight for better working conditions for doctors. We are simply not paid or treated well enough for the amount of difficulty it takes to become a doctor.

[@user-gv5hm8po6b]

Doctors aren't treated or paid well enough? I don't mean to assume anything, but from my perspective American doctors make A LOT compared to where I live. Especially surgeons. I have no idea what you are complaining about when you say you don't get paid enough. Residents may not, but surgeons definitely do.

[@smellypatel5272]

@@user-gv5hm8po6b Because you, like most of the hoi polloi, have no idea how medical training in the US works. Compared to Europe our schooling is generally longer, more expensive, significantly more competitive, and entails far more abuse on the actual job. There are certainly exceptions, but our European counterparts enjoy laxer hours, laxer standards, and a healthcare system that doesn't try to squeeze out every penny from doctors and patients. Also, that high pay you're talking about for surgeons is a joke. Surgery residencies last anywhere from 5-7+ years. That's 4 years undergrad, 4 years med school and that residency number only to be in a position where you typically make 400-600k on average. You're better off going into fields like law, finance, banking, or computer science for better income, and without the immense stress and startup cost.

I became a lead singer for Cirque du Soleil years ago, and this could not be more accurate. Worked my ass off to get there my entire life. Did not have time to see friends from school really, and didn’t party in my teenage years, which I didnt mind, because I was very focus and disciplined. I cannot even start to tell you how much Ive sacrificed indeed, it has been difficult, competitive and stressful at times ITS CRAZY to do that, I’ve often thought. I thought of quitting so many times just cause its been too much sometimes, the travelling every week, not seeing my close ones, missing almost all the important events in there lives. I cried so many times and burned out myself twice. I’ve even done shows with broken bones. But somehow. I’VE NEVER FELT LIKE IT WAS A JOB, and SACRIFICES DIDNT FEEL AS BAD as they were because I was PASSIONATE about it. I just feel like Im doing exactly what I’m supposed to be doing! Im good at it and know it so well. I had to find a job during the two years pandemic. And you know what happened? Turned out… as much as I woukd really want to be with my family all year long and just have a quiet job.. It made me miserable! Having a job got me depressed and sick. At the end of two years… I knew I wouldnt be able to keep having a job. Because I didnt feel accomplished, i didnt feel particularly great at it, I wasnt able to perform well, cause I just didnt have the interest for it. It clearly wasn’t my calling. I’m so proud of myself and especially greatful for everything I’ve accomplished career wise so far. But I’m also 37 years old now. And I haven’t had the chance to have any long term relationships. Travelling made it difficult to build something with someone. To have a strong and solid foundation, while I always had to go! I’m the eldest of three girls. Im the big sister and always loved taking care of everyone. I’ve also always wanted to have kids, since I was a teenager. We all thought I would have been the first to marry, settle down and have kids and that’s it. The weirdest part is that despite the fact that I started doing it very young, I was always doing it as a hobby, for FUN! I could have never guessed in a million years at the time that I would end up singing for a living for real! Because I didnt have to think about it as “maybe” a career before I was 21 and had to decide what to study in college. And even then - choosing to study music and give a shot at a career as a singer, was a bold move. I come from a very small village and no one did that professionally in my family.

After years of studying, training I'm finally doing what I was working towards all this time. The legal profession is incredibly demanding. After a really long day, I just want some peace. It's nice to know that someone out there understands. Edit: 29 in a few weeks...

The few hours here and there when I have time for myself do I have more than enough money to do whatever I want, which is driving my dream car, and me owning a house and my dream car without having loaned a single penny at age 25 just shows that working is what I do best and what I love to do. I would say that I have a career and I'm working towards a goal.

They need to accept more students into medical schools. We don’t have nearly enough doctors in this country. Few people can even get the medical care they need in this country, and it’s exponentially worse in any other country. Medical school is insanely expensive, and it could be less so if they would accept more students. Yeah, you want your doctors to be competent, but why the eff do we allow public schools to get away with the absolute crap they do?? CRT, Social Emotional Leaning, etc… Most schools are worse than worthless!

@Russell Phelan, I live in The Twin Cities Metro Area of Minnesota. The curricula in my area is super-woke, and has been ridiculously leftist since at least as far back as I was in school (1980s to ‘90s).

Medical school at NYU is now tuition free

Because there is money in sickness and illness 🤷🏾‍♀️

There's a reason there aren't more doctors in this country. People aren't educated enough and the public schools are dumbing them down even further. Also become a doctor takes way to damn long, esp after the burn out of so many years in public school already because they finish school too late, either have a life or go to school after so many years, I chose not to become a doctor, not sorry either.

Please may you provide us with the full link? Otherwise these videos can be more counterproductive and leave us with more questions. To the admin doing all this, stop it - it comes across you rinsing clips for views. Give us the damn link for all these videos you share.

Yeah his words are very thought provoking. Plus reading the comments of different people have made me think more on what I am doing in college. Like I’m working very hard and will have homework every single day including weekends and I’ve told myself if I want something so bad I’m going to have to fight for it. I know musical theatre is a very competitive scene so I’m starting now rather than later. If I put that work in and keep doing it I know that my chances only improve. I think if everyone who wants something so bad they will sacrifice time, relationships, money, and many other things to get that thing they want. I want to make a difference with my performance and make sure everyone sees the things I do.
