BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
So much for the "meaningful job." The good news is there will be a reality show called "the last paycheck in America." - Mookeh, on 06/21/2009, -1/+6File this under 'no *****'. Anyone who's ever been employed for an extended period of time knows how far work can go to restore your happiness. :)

- PArbo, on 06/21/2009, -2/+5Maybe I'd be less depressed if I got off digg and got a job.
- Stumpie2012, on 06/21/2009, -0/+3Work should be at the bottom of that list or not there at all.
- Stumpie2012, on 06/21/2009, -0/+2It has nothing to do with just having a job. Its having a job that you actually like being at. Most people, initially, like their jobs but eventually find that they would be happier someplace different. Most people do not like their jobs. Being employed as a "young person" is a pretty great thing especially when you see it a "good" job. but how may people stay at there first job they got right out of college. Not many! I have had many "good' jobs that paid very well, but I ***** hated them. And some of my most enjoyable places of employment didn't pay *****.
I know that having any sort of a job is better than being broke and unemployed but doing something you love and making money for it, well that, there is no better. - CoreyHalliwell, on 06/21/2009, -0/+2We're meant to move, and we're meant to do work. A lot of imbalances come from us not doing what we're made to do
1) Love
2) Work
3) Play
4) Eat (Good food) - leif77, on 06/21/2009, -0/+2Even if you have a ***** job it allows you to escape from whatever it is that drags you down in your daily life... I think it's the monotony and repetition... like meditation...

- DrunkRobot, on 06/22/2009, -0/+2Surprise! Objectivist / suedo medical / corporate propaganda from a Rupert Murdoch owned newspaper. Never would have guessed. And nobody will question it out of fear of being attacked by Fox. Congrats News Corp, you've turned science fiction into reality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0GxyZCVc5M
- CoreyHalliwell, on 06/22/2009, -0/+1To me, work includes, like running, weight lifting, and creating your own living space/means of income.
- consonance, on 06/22/2009, -0/+1What is objectivism?
- christineforest, on 09/12/2009, -0/+0In a society of workaholics as the US is, it is easy to see how one's entire identity is tied up in the work status or position. This creates a great deal of pressure on individuals. It is also a huge risk factor for narrowing one's life values strictly to social hierarchy and monetary rewards--a narrow perspective I have often worked very hard with my patients to change and broaden.
- fcaustic, on 06/22/2009, -0/+0Being unemployed makes you less happy they say?
