RE: Why Waiting in Line Is Torture

in #dlike • 6 years ago

lol... I wonder why in Marxist countries, where people wait in line for everything, they did not realize this. Neo-Marxists are more interested in psychology, maybe someday, if they learn something, in their next failures people will not complain about waiting in line for bread.

It is a matter of perception, if people are doing nothing they feel that they are wasting their time, and that bothers them. There are even many people who can't be quiet for a moment and relax, because they feel they could do something better. It's like @gabbynhice says, self-control.

    Another thing to to notice is that when people have nothing important in life whether it is material or spiritual, they lean on to basic drivel and as Peter Theiel says it:

    “In the most dysfunctional organizations, signaling that work is being done becomes a better strategy for career advancement than actually doing work (if this describes your company, you should quit now).”
    ― Peter Thiel, Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future

    I saw a horror movie review from a well established popular reviewer who said that the creepiest thing about the movie was the age difference (20+ years) of the protagonist and a consenting adult. When people have nothing to say, they'd rather focus on easy non-issues or minor issues. When waiting in line become too much of a issue for their little minds, they will focus on etiquette of waiting in line. When production become too much to deal with, inequality and redistribution becomes the issue of the day.
