A lot of you could be less grateful

I see way too much contentment on this forum. People who are happy, finding meaning, and balancing work and life.

Just because you make more and have better lifestyle potential than 99.99% of humans in world history, doesn’t mean you should rest on your laurels and be happy. Misery and discontentment is the only way to extract every ounce of shareholder value from your corpse.

Just wanted to get this off my chest because I hate seeing all this positivity on here. Makes me sick.
