Chained to a ever spinning clock

Hey folks long time no see.

i have a question, and a real thing i want to know. Something alot of people have to face in there lives. alot of people in life are "Chained to a ever spinning clock" in the sense that people live there lives by hours of the day. Go there this time go there that time, i mean (For me) this is really depressing. And i see this aspect of life as a table, one side is beserk people wondering how to get money and food for that day. the other side is people who have there life planned out for the next 5 years to the week. i mean i could never last in a office enviroment, becuase over sheduling. So how can i and how do people deal with this, find a medium or give in or go nuts? i mean haing the same classes in the same space every week bugs me....

i have done a bit off office work, i have made a few computer things for people, and have had a good sample of life (for my age). And basicly my conculsion from living and looking around is that life bites. not to doubt the good parts of it but how do people live this way?

if anyone has any idea to his please tell me before i die

There is a difference between "scheduled" and "organised". Is it organisation you that makes you cringe? If so, this is a bad thing. If its just being overly scheduled, (ie knowing exactly what your going to do at the exact time, being precise "I shall have luch at 12.46 pm" etc) then I'm sure you'll find something. But beleive me you want organisation. You want some general goal and purpose, otherwise how can you feel like you've accomplished anything during the day?

oh stop whining, warlord bob never complained much about his situation.

Post Mon Nov 15, 2004 10:55 pm

yup, he never did. he lived his life on the optimistic side. be happy with what you've got and make the most of it.

There is a difference between whining and looking for solutions/other members opinions.
Do you suggest people just shut up, not even revealing their problems and feelings to their closest, trusted friends just because some poor wit dies before his time? Wheres your logic? People have to have SOMEwhere to turn to. Don't kick them away, lest it be done to you in your time of need.

ff, that was low. You're taking the departed's names in vain. The lad needs a place to ask shtuff like this, and compared to other forums, its probably better to do so here.

Ok people lets just calm down for a minute here, ff i see your point but lets just let Worth rest in peace, i think he deserves at least that don't you think? Dsq has as much right to say how he feels as we do!

Right thats me said my piece the discussion can continue now, but just try not to get heated up un-neccessarily over it

I have set routine during the day. If i was an assasination target i'd be in beig trouble so here goes.

0730 - Get up
0745 - Get washed
0800 - Come on TLR
0810 - Go to Work
0900 - Start Work
1000 - Have a cigarette
1200 - Go on lunch
1300 - Come back from lunch
1500 - Have a cigarette
1730 - Finish work
1800 - Get Home
1900 - Play San Andreas
2300 - Go to bed

This does change if something comes up but this is my standard day and i like it like this.

TEN MINUTES A DAY on TLR? Wheres your dedication man!

Post Tue Nov 16, 2004 12:43 am

i spend five *ducks thrown vegetables*

Post Tue Nov 16, 2004 1:39 am

During work i spend a lot of time on here. 20 minutes during lunch and atleast an hour in total during the day. Like now for instance, i should be working but have decided i must give my undivided attention to you Griff

I feel ya about people watching "life tick away"....organization like someone said earlier...is essential....but i think you are more refferring to those people who have day planners and have to "pencil" their friends in for a time to hang out, or whatever...

my days are like this...

mon-sat

8am- begrudgingly remove myself from bed
815am- STILL trying to get out of bed
845am- Finally rolled to the floor at least
9am - shower (sometimes earlier or later)
945ish- pickup some drive thru breakfast from a fast food resturant
1030am - Arrive at work, sign in
1145am- ***** and Whine there are too many annoying people wanting guitars worked on and go have a few Ciggs to calm down.
1230pm - LUNCH!!!! (and lunch nookie from the wife )
1pm-6pm Do my work at work and LEAVE
7pm-whenever - is open for ANYTHING

Sundays...
all day is free day....most is spent with my daughter and wife though


So you see NOT EVERYONE is obsessed with watching the clock on a day to day basis (except at work cause i haet people and they make me wanna leave work in a hurry...so i wish against and curse the clock in my tech room lol )

btw: when the computer is available i am either at TLR, or working on a game mod of some sort....if my wife is hoggin the comp....it is either guitar playing time or PS2 time

wow read the dotted line.... i said i wanted help with how to manage this, asking for help is totaly different then whining. if i wanted to whine i would well... go send mass emails to people i dont know

anyhow its not organzition that really bugs me, its the fact that (hard to explain) life seems more bland. now i cant stop worrying if i am at the right place at the right time, and if some teacher wants this for then ect ect... then i get depressed and drink.

basicly i want to know, how to live a life not grounded to some inane system, but not in a cray loose way.
