Do fun jobs exist? It feels like they're impossible to find. Something that gives you a sense of adventure, of discovery, of anything really. Something that doesn't involve going to the same place every day for the rest of your life and banging your head against the bathroom walls.

I've had a few that passed as "fun" (commercial construction and arborism) but getting paid slightly over minimum wage to risk your life is fucking bullshit. You should get paid at least a living wage if you risk life and limb to wagecuck.
Everything else is just mind-numbingly boring. I scroll through pages and pages of job postings looking to find *something*, anything. 99% of jobs are just service industry, pencil-pushing, either bottom-feeding labour or inaccessible labour that requires miles of qualifications and connections, or code-monkey jobs that also require miles of qualifications and bootlicking.
How is a man supposed to live like this? Starting to feel like even selling your soul to the zog military is becoming a better option.

Gonna die poor and bored anons.

The only fun jobs are ones where you manage other workers. You need to slave for 10 years first before you get there.

Software Engineering is the only career where you get real agency and can exercise creativity.

Everything else is cucked.

Yeah, designing shitty business apps over and over to do slightly different things is super creative...

Yea, real fun.

_appRepo.Upsert(app);

Endless creative license. Honestly, it's always you "it's an art" faggots that make it annoying. There is nothing artistic about CRUD, no matter how many bullshit K8S containers you put into it and no matter how many useless patterns you shove into the code.

yes, they exist when the job has a high skill ceiling and you are in the top 0.1% of talent.

you could bang the CEO's wife, aunt, mother, and sister and still keep your job.

Free weed and the cannabis industry discount is 40% at other dispensaries
I grow weed better than you ever smoke but I don’t turn down free weed
Also most weed on the streets is poisoned with chemicals worse than the commercial stuff
You can taste it when you smoke it

I have tons of fun at Boeing as an Aerospace engineer. When I'm not being strangled by bureaucracy and being told to inculcate.

Ocean Lifeguard is the best job. You get paid to workout, sit on the beach, and look at girls in bikinis.

I think job and fun are mutually exclusive. I just can't derive pleasure from anything I'm obligated to attend or perform. Like even if the government suddenly mandated that my new job was to shitpost in bed all day I'd probably start wigging out.

This is the nature of the vast majority of such jobs.

The most fun part of my job is watching the neurotic mess of an owner have frequent meltdowns about minor things. Everything else sucks.
