The 9-5 grind

in #worklast year

Sometimes working the 9-5 grind can be hard. Especially when you have to work 8 hours and repeat the next day. It can be especially hard for me since I work at a grocery store and I work retail...and I also have to be on my feet all day. It can be rough at times but I try to get through it.

Lots of people have to work 8 hours a day. For some people the time flies for others the time drags. For me it really depends on how busy I stay. I try not to look at the clock when I'm at work but I have to keep track of time for my breaks and lunch.

It seems repetitive what I do for work, and I only get paid $16 an hour for being a produce clerk at the store I work at. It could be hard work at times but to me it is worth it when I get paid and I can put my money into silver or gold and to be able to save it for my future. I don't get paid much so I can only buy so much at one time, but it is rewarding to be able to add to my stack with every paycheck.

Working for me isn't something I particularly enjoy but it's something that I do to occupy my time since I don't have much else to do. I plan on going to college sometime in the future so I could get an education, and hopefully in the future get a higher paying job.

At the end of the day I honestly want to be able to work for myself and make money on my own instead of having to go into a 9-5 job. That would be much better for me in my opinion. Working at a 9-5 job can be pretty draining and it takes a lot of will power to come into my job every day and grind it out.

I plan to work at the store for anywhere between 6 months to a year...or until I start school. It's just my little way of saving some stacking money in the mean time and to be able to buy the things I want. It takes a lot of discipline to be working most of the week. I try not to think about time too much when I'm at work.

I just wish that there were more ways to make money from home or other ways to make money without having to get a 9-5 job. I want to be more independent and rely on my own schedule and to be able to do more of the things that I want to do. That is what I am trying to figure out. Hopefully I'll have a solution for that someday soon.

The 9-5 grind has been a thing for years and many people are stuck in it. My goal is to not have to be stuck in the 9-5 grind for the rest of my life and to be completely independent. It seems kind of hard though, to be honest, but I am trying to think of ways I can be independently making money.

Even though it's tiring, it's something we have to do. Working is a part of life. We all have to do it at some point or another. It's all about finding the job or career that is most enjoyable for you.

After the U.S. Monetary Correction the 16 Fiat USD's you currently make per hour, will Reset to 16 Cents per hour... This is why I've been Spending Paper, in order to get back some U.S. Coins...

I hope things get reset and the coinage is worth more.

If I'm corrected about the Monetary Correction, and you bring home just One $10 Roll of Quarters each day, it will be like you were making an extra 5,000 Fiat USD's per week... That won't happen with 2 ounces of Silver per week... The 2 ounces of Silver will be worth 1,800 Fiat USD's on the other side of the Reset... So either way, you'll be doing better than all the people you're working with...
