I don't know, which author writes about neurotic, ugly young men who spend their entire lives procrastinating?

I always find posts about wageslavery, dead-end careers, burnt out office workers etc. so alien. Movies like Office Space where the guy's biggest problem is having a boring, cushy job and stable source of income. It's funny how unrelatable it is to me. I think I'd commit murder for a 45k/year job if I knew I would get away with it. It would barely cover rent and food in my city but it would be a dream job.
I've been chronically unemployed since I graduate 2.5 years ago, the only work I can find is construction. At this point in my life the only possible "career" I could pursue is the military. No one will hire me because I have no experience. I can't afford to go back to school. There are no "lit careers". There are no careers at all anymore. I am so so literally- economically and socially SUPERFLUOUS. Houellebcq and 19th C Russian authors cannot even conceive this level of superfluous.
