Just wanted to share a quote with everyone on this subreddit from the play Death of a Salesman.

“Well, I spent six or seven years after high school trying to work myself up. Shipping clerk, salesman, business of one kind or another. And it's a measly manner of existence. To suffer fifty weeks of the year making phone calls, or selling or buying for the sake of a two-week vacation, when all you really desire is to be outdoors, with your shirt off. And still — that's how you build a future.” -Biff, Death of a Salesman.
