Antiwork

Would you leave it all behind simply because you were not fulfilled? At least for immediate short-term future, choose life experience/travel over career/work if you could?

Many of us in society are not fulfilled with what we do. Whether we make $15/hr or $1M a year. We can still be miserable. IF you were making enough money/living a good life on paper but incredibly unhappy, would you leave it all behind? Assuming you didn’t have a family or something in particular that was keeping you. With wages and cost of living here in the US, where’s the balance? A 4-day work week would be a good start. Is it more of an American problem? Ones working to pay for a loved ones Medical bill or get out of College debt? I met people in Latin America traveling(from Europe mostly) able to take such time off from their company. 1-year sabbatical for some in Germany? Say what? Is it all worth it to you for 2-weeks vacation? In the words of Peter Gibbons from ‘Office Space’ https://youtu.be/_jexWBP5Jt4
