Jobs.

It's no secret that I'm unhappy with where my life job-wise has ended up. I have a college degree and I'm stuck in a dead-end bullshit receptionist job that gives me no challenge or stimulation or anything. All it is to me is a paycheck. That's it. I don't care about the company, I don't care about the office. All I care about is that I get my paycheck and weekend.

And it's sad that life has come down to this. Working for a paycheck. I know I'm not the first or only one to be going through this, but it's much sadder than it seems. To be wasting 5 out of 7 days of the week doing something I hate and being so miserable...it's not a way to live. Nobody should have to live their life that way. To spend your days in front of a computer doing menial bullshit work that you couldn't give two shits about? No thank you. But that's what it comes down to.

Society today is too driven by money and status that people are forced into any job they can get just to make enough money to live. Life has a price, and it's a high one. True, I don't know any other way that society could work or function, but there has got to be a better answer than this. To have so many people so unhappy...you'd think that would be a wake-up call. But sadly, people are dense and stupid. And things probably aren't going to change.
