Suicidal Thoughts

Posted by Riveet099 - June 2nd, 2016


The depravity of the human is seen from despair. Despair comes from many things that are necessary evils of this world. One of which is money. For money humanity throws itself away. One becomes someone else, losing their own individuality for the sake of some oppressive system.

A young adult walks for eight hours on end without wages. That's because the wages are solely commissions, so no commissions means no paycheck. The "training sessions" given for the job are mere recital lectures, writing down rebutals as if preparing for a debate. People who open the door often do not even bother debating, or even listen to half of the sample pitch the representative is supposed to read from. The job ends at midnight and as the adult walks home, s/he contemplates how much time was wasted on this job for no pay and thinks about quitting. But it's their first day, and their gut roils from the thought of quitting so soon, only to be called a quitter and failure. Suddenly their whole life begins to fall into place. They will never amount to anything because they don't possess any skill sought by the market and will languish with their parents as the disappointment they'd always feraed they would be. The only thing s/he excels at is schoolwork, which in truth doesn't help in many real-life jobs. The young adult runs home, crying in their dark room, sobbing quietly so no one hears. Then depravity takes root and human cease to be. Everyone should just be like me. And thus a villain is born.

Perhaps it's overreactive.
