Even if AI and automation doesn't replace all human jobs and labor, the jobs of the future still look like they will suck. There is some meaning in human labor used in creation and doing things. I don't think we can ever completely separate meaning or earning a living from employment. I even had a couple dream jobs of my own before they were replaced or dramatically changed.

The future of society is going to suck.

Yeah. I'm sick of it. I just want this bubble to pop. The economy has been dead for so long. Maybe if the system destroyed itself we could start again.

What's it even like to live through a boom instead of recession after recession? I joined the workforce right after the pandemic and then Gen AI happened.

Today is my last day working at my temporary job and then it's back to being unemployed. Again.

I want change. This isn't working.
