School dropout

"You think, when you're out of school you're free, sonny? Oh, hell no! Then work life calls for you - and work life is only a continuation of what's been happening in school, only worse and even more strict. What you already were there, you gonna be also in your job life. If you were a loser, a slacker or a victim of your school mates' coping methods for boredom already there, then you gonna be the same among your colleagues. A really, really small cog in the clockwork...
The only way you'll not be forced to deal with this is when you happened to be born to an incredibly wealthy family or if you managed to become rich on your own before the day you leave school. Which is like zero probability.
So, don't even try to think you're a bigwig that gets his way."

It is just the environment, so the whole structure of society is like that. There is very little compassion when you have to compete for a loaf of bread. And then some contempt of those who are born entitled and think they are the kings. So kind of sad but expected in this world.

Interesting conversation but why are you so circled on school? I like my own school times – yes I was sometimes bitten, bullied as all but it is normal practice of Russian social institutes I guess but I remember much more positive things about school days – many friends and I communicating with them now, sport activity, kind and generous teachers, many first experiences, self-growth and many many other things. Institutes times all the same I was bitten but not bullied already. Work times – all the same but not bitten so I don’t see no dramatic here.
What is about a work talk – my dream is to have work which will feed me and my family and will be a happiest time spending, partly it is now though it is very physically difficult – it will not be this I think farther more when everything will be at place. I could work 8 hours a day on a plant and be happy with time left but the salaries in Russia are so low that it is better to work by himself and it is more profitable if you really work – no matter what you are doing – food, wood, driving even it gives you more money than fucking businessmen are willingly paying to you now at Russia, so then fuck them all and lets them do all the work by themselves…
But of course I am not dreaming to escape the society - it is impossible and is not necessary cause society with a clever using - a helpful more than harmful thing I believe, maybe if I will flee to Siberia I could be free of it but I have to do ALL by himself and it is a sweat dream and even “if” our mother Earth actually is so small now to hide - you should go to ocean or to space to get rid of our common destiny I think...
