Keep getting called from work. Will probably be asking me to do an extra shift today.
I don't fucking want to. I FUCKING HATE WORKING.
They texted me to call too. Worst case scenario if I just ignore it?

Lets say you make 10$ per hour and you work a 6 hour shift. That's an extra 60$ do that every week and you get about 48*60=$2880 extra per year. If you invest that with a 10% annual return rate and keep doing that extra shift for the next 10 years the result will be 50k after 10 years.

Theres no fucking way he gets written up. They cant force you to work an EXTRA shift on such short notice. They can ask, but you always have the right to refuse. If its SCHEDULED overtime, thats a different story, but if they are calling him its likely not scheduled. This is all assuming OP lives in a first world country.

Jobs aren’t fulfilling. It’s impossible for a conscious actor, a player, to enjoy faction grinding in this game. It’s simply a means to an end. Anyone who’s identity becomes a reflection of their “career” aka specialization/faction is a literal npc.

No they fucking cant. Maybe it’s different by state but there are laws in the state that I live in. They can force you to work overtime but they have to give you advanced notice. If they dont it’s VOLUNTARY overtime. That means its up to you. If they fire you for not voluntarily taking overtime you can sue.

Tbh only job I can EVER imagine tolerating to the point where I feel "okay" in it is teaching.

It's not for profit (I don't feel fulfilled working for for-profits). In elementary, you teach the basics (something useful.. GE classes are a waste though. Maybe a little of it is fine, but for the most part are pointless). 3 months off. Decent pay where I live. Job itself isn't as stressful as most jobs (for example, it's not like you have to "think fast". Instead, you just plan things out at your pace). Etc.

Literally the only job I can imagine not absolutely hating (inb4 negative nancies say I will be sent to a school with tyrones). I need a yr more for a bachelors. I'm so pissed at myself since I could have been done by now if I wasn't brainwashed earlier with the blue collar trade memes. Shit.. instead I have a useless associate's degree. I lowkey feel like quitting this job and just being a NEET one more year, but that wouldn't be smart for many reasons.

I still want my end goal to be self-employment though.

>> No.14801555

>>14800417
It's not bad to take the extra work, but it depends on how stressful the job is. If you don't want to work that extra shift, then you don't want the money and value relaxation a bit more. Is the 60 bucks worth a shit ton of extra stress? If you are irresponsible with money I guess that extra 60 is fine because you need it, if you are already stable then leisure time is more important.

i've worked extra hours for a few years and now it looks like I'm going to be able to retire around age 45 completely off passive income and never need to draw on my principal. it is definitely worth it because I probably would have used those extra hours shitposting on a laotian pixel forum instead of getting more money to invest
