I have no idea about this but I wish it goes away soon. People in my country lost their jobs and it's hard to live without money. Undecided

Having job does not mean you will have money. You will waste your life just to meet your basic needs for food and shelter. I know it, I have been into this modern slave rat race. This is how capitalism works.

Sadly, too many jobs were affected and that's all they have to sustain their living. I feel bad that the only source they have for living is through their wage and income from their jobs and don't have backup whenever their company goes backup or unexpected things like covid crisis comes.

A lot of lessons will be learned in this pandemic.

For most people this is how things was before coronavirus. Work every day till exhausted, have only enough money to eat cheapest food, pay for cheapest apartment and have nothing left before next monthly payment. Be afraid for your work so much that agree to do additional duties or hours for free that are not required by job description. And live in this perpetual work/sleep cycle until it breaks down by getting sick. Then lose everything, get bank accounts frozen, unable to receive next salary even if You find new job. Then migrate to other european countries and start life from scratch or join the dark side.

As a criminal I found my lifestyle more secure and calm than daily work. I have more money for time spent making money. I feel more fairly treated by my partners than I was treated in any of jobs I ever had. I never have boredom of doing same thing again and again. I can do my things when I feel I can do it, I never refuse meeting with my friends or loved one because I need to work.

Only thing I miss from regular legal work is the happy smile of customers getting the computer fixed, data rescued from crashed drive or faulty flash, and having various electronic equipment to play with.
