‘This is basically selling your soul, it’s so pointless’: Middle class man’s daily routine gets roasted for being boring, fellow 9-5ers rush to his defense
When you are a kid, it’s easy to look at a 9-5 like it’s a constrictive indicator of a boring life. They can’t understand how somebody who goes to work every day, does the same thing, and goes home can possibly be happy. When you’re young, adult life can sound like an escape from the …
