External motivation and discipline is for the weak. On the other hand it perfectly fits the southern laziness stereotype which means you are the living proof of IT being right pay debts

My fridge is broken. Let's see how many decades it will take me to replace it.

So you will never get a new fridge again in your life?
You live on canned food or something?

Replaced my fridge two years or so ago, when I noticed that the temperature outside resembles the temperature inside. Went for a bigger one, I regret nothing.

Time to drink all the milk before it goes bad.

Do you not have "stable" milk in the US?
It's basically one step beyond regular pasteurization and you can store it for days at room temperature even after opening.

 No.24607

>>24606
It probably exists in niche markets, but I've never seen it. Our pasteurized milk will only survive an hour or two outside of the refrigerator.

Interesting. What about UHT milk?

When one watches Swiss television archive footage or old pictures up to the 50s. The most striking thing is that not a lot changed : buildings are the same, festivals are the same. Everything that happened is still relatable.

Maybe the last fifteen years saw the most changes in Switzerland’s recent history with an acceleration in population change. People with Swiss ancestry tend to now constitute a minority in classrooms. I dislike that but I couldn’t say it was lived as a catastrophe.

Unfortunately, Flicka von der Schnakenweide can't be bread due to her heart condition. She's not in the Stutbuch, anyway. So no horsemilk. Must go back to working overtime, the rent for Flicka's stable just went up and Lena would be angry if we had to dig into our savings.

Foobar just played two blank tracks right after another.
What are the chances?
Of course I could calculate them based on the number of tracks in the playlist and the number of blank tracks, but I won't go and find all the blank tracks right now

A few days ago I are a cantaloup melon half with a spoon. My neighbors watching me in my kitchen probably thought I am a primate using a tool.

Date yesterday went well. We had a coffee and then went out for lunch. Lasted about 5 hours.

I can't seem to be able to get a good night's sleep because of how I have to stay up to help with moving stuff for the family and then I also have to work on uni stuff still.
I just need to sit down once and write the final essay for the semester, hit send and then I'm fucking done it's just that I'm very fucking drained.

I miss my grandparents. But I'm glad that they don't have to see the current levels of bullshit. Although all of them were better equipped to deal with bullshit than I am. They were all so resilient and optimistic.
Also, I fear I'll be unemployed in a few years when bossman sells the company, and I'll never find a new job. Luckily, I don't have wife/children. Imagine being unemployed when you have children. It's horrible. I know because my father was unemployed for some time in the late eighties.
Life pretty much sucks. Still miss my grandparents, who have all been dead for decades. Miss my ex. Life is a miserable place and I wish I had the courage to kys.

I said I hate headphones and headset, which you couldn't hear with your gay little freefalling earplugs.
I maybe should have added that I hate WEARING them, which completely changes the message.

Why worry? Bürgergeld is the best + you have more time for your Kids.

Except you have to live in a shithole, not have a car, eat Aldi-junk, use up all of your assets, and you can't save for retirement, so it means you will also be poor in your old age. You will have to live like some eternal student, except you are not a student anymore. You regress. You can only dismantle everything you have built in life, until it's all gone. Worse: everything your ancestors built will be dismantled, too. That wardrobe has been in the family through two world wars? Antiques, you are not allowed to have that, turn it into money. And they do make visits to check every closet and every drawer, to make sure there is nothing you hide. If they think you have too much or too good a quality of anything, it will have to be sold. If you have too many pots or too much cutlery, they will decide you don't really live alone and cut you to 0. What's too much? Arbitrary.

As for children, if you have any, you will be too poor to dress them in real clothes, feed them real food or give them an education beyond what is offered by the government. No music lessons, no skiing, and they'll have to eat junk food. Imagine feeding your children that shit Aldi-bread with some Aldi boiled sausage, and dressing them in track suites from Tako. Of course, they will have to go to a shit school with daily robberies and knife attacks, because you live in a shit place, and they will come home and talk like Turks, without articles, prepositions or cases. They adapt. If you have a daughter, she will start to wear a headscarf, and if you have a son, he will want to be circumcised.

It's a horror-movie.

The only way to survive on Bürgergeld is too have some undocumented side-hustle, to steal food from garbage containers, etc.

It's so much easier to have a job and know you make enough money to have a roof over your head and if 500g of black lentils are more expensive than the red lentils, it doesn't bother you, you can just buy black lentils. And you don't have to buy that god-awful cheap Ja! Oatmeal, either. And if there are ripe heirloom-tomatoes on offer, you can buy them. You don't have to buy green pre-packaged tomatoes. And when your washing machine is broken, you can order parts to fix it. And if you can't do that, you can pay someone to fix it or even buy a new one. On Bürgergeld? You can try to save up for a washing machine over five years, or pay it off on installments for five years, and then it's broken again and you will try to wash your clothes in the shower by hand, because of course you can't even afford a bathtub, and of course you will smell.

Life is so much better when you are not poor.

I am so glad I came of age before smartphones became widespread.
I was already an embarrassing dweeb without any of that, but now imagine having access to brainrotting social media and cameras filming everything all the time.

Even before smartphones were a thing, back when Motorola clamshell phones first had video cameras, kids recorded awkward kids. As soon as YouTube was a thing, videos were uploaded. There was a fuckton of videos with kids getting bullied on trains.

One coworker noted to another that I am not as gung-ho about my job as I used to be. Heard this from the second guy who related their conversation. Told him he was right. I'm burning out. Going through the motions, upholding the standard and expectations I have established for myself but without actually caring. I used to tell them I was fueled by adrenalin and fear of failure. What has changed? I no longer fear failure. What's to fear? I have proven that I can do this job in my sleep.

I also tell people my job is primarily to put up with bullshit. That is grinding on me. Especially after this latest management shake-up. The remaining heads are all jockeying for position, trying to impress. I couldn't care less what the new bosses think. They'll see my work. Acknowledge my competence and eventually get out of the way and let me do my job. Bosses. How many do I even have? Too many.

Long day. I'm tired.

Agreed. That's why I'll keep showing up as long as they keep paying me.

Merz will get you working a job, even when bossman sold the company. Why worry, if you want to work there is work that pays.

 No.24655 KONTRA

>>24650
What are you even talking about? Do you think I'm some Merz-fanboy? You can't reasonably expect any politician to give anyone a job, except for civil servants. Theoretically, politicians can disown all business owners and of course, that would be just what I need, getting my stock depot stolen by the government on top of being unemployed, so I can be poor even faster and give everyone a cushy government job. It has been done. The result was shithole countries like the world never has seen.

Why not? Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Adolf Hitler, Deng Xiaoping - all of them made sure people have jobs, each administration did it in their own way.
