RE: Can Blockchain Technologies End Wage-Slavery?
My penny dropped when I realised (quite some time ago) that my installing a new ceiling in a friend's kitchen was more satisfying than any of the work I had ever done while employed by a big multinational company, no matter how much I liked being an IT architect for the technical aspect of it.
The money was good, the company's inner workings were a strange and sick form of mass hysteria. Being among fellow commuters every morning racing to work with grim and embittered faces didn't help either.
Standing still in heavy traffic I started to wonder: "What the fuck are we doing and why are we doing it to each other?"
After the almost inevitable burn-out, I am much happier now, though quite a lot poorer in money terms.
I kind sensed that your story was along those lines man. i didn't say anything because I didn't have any clues but darn I was spot on. I bet also photography has a lot to do with this story no? :)
Oh yes. Photographed since I was 10 years old, but it came back to the foreground.
Still like and do IT and electronics though, just in different settings, but if I could live off Steemit, I would, and relegate IT and electronics to hobbies.
Well sensed, BTW.
I've seen your work since you joined. You are one of the few people I believe I can relate to a great extent. I actually admire the way you chose to channel your thoughts into something creative rather than ranting like me :)
Same here.
And thanks, but I rather enjoy your rants, to be honest, specially when you kick against the pricks. Well-focussed anger can be a force for the good, as the opposite has never changed anything, so I hope you won't stop giving a fuck completely. Some things need pointing at, and that too can be done in a creative manner, as you regularly demonstrate.
thank you man. Will keep posting. Your feedback comments are gold, so keep them coming.
Freedom is priceless.
