working from home during covid and realising i did not want to go back and work in an office in a cold country for the rest of my life, only seeing the sun for a few months per year.
Would rather fail non stop for 10 years while living in thailand on $1k a month than go up the corporate ladder in a big city living in a concrete cell waking up to an alarm, getting on a packed train, cold-calling all day then going home, watching netflix, going to sleep, rinse n repeat til friday, get smashed then hungover all of saturday, recover on sunday only to be awaiting the next day at work...
Weird take but i wrote a diary entry around the time i quit my job and moved back in with my parents, comparing the 9-5 to the matrix.. We're all in it. It's comfortable. But there's a world outside... That world may be shit too, but there's an alternative
