What's the most bourgeois thing you've ever done?

>never worked until summer after first year of uni
>it was a cushy consultancy office job I got solely due to my dad knowing the owner
>next summer
>get first job on my own, a kitchen job

After my first 8 hour day there, I was this close *holds index thinger and thumb close together while unzipping dick* to quitting due to the mind numbingness of it all.

Should I have quit right there?

I'm in my third year of university, aged twenty-two, and I've never had a job ever. Stop being so casual OP.

Well, going by Marx's definition, probably not be in debt and have enough money saved up to subsit for a month or so.

Its funny how marxists how classify "working" as one of the most horrific and oppressive things a human can do. They'd rather starve than pick up a hoe or telephone and get something down.

Work is good. Work is the activity that you endow yourself into labor and see yourself reflected into the object of your own production. I contrast this with a job, work done for someone else's benefit, in which the product of your labor is alien to you. There is a difference between work a "Marxist" would approve of, and the kind of work A Marxist would disapprove of. It's the difference in satisfaction, say, of building a house to your own specifications for yourself to live in (in which you are invested), and building a house for someone else in which you have no intrinsic connection, you're doing it because you need money to survive. There is a difference in Marxian terms.

I worked since I was legally able to. Actually, before that since I had a paper route at age 13 or so.

How is it possible that you guys never had a job, well into your mid-20's. It's kind of pitiful.

Alienation is unavoidable in a social economy.

I'd like to see a Marxist come with up with how people could have an economy were people don't make shit for people they don't know.

No, the money belongs to me. The person it originally belonged to passed away and left it to me.

[Anonymous No.6098423]
