Hi I recently started my internship at a company. I feel very alienated from people because of how others are so hardworking with their work while I cant help but to think why are others able to accept their fate of spending most of their day working and coming home late to be too tired to do any other thing.
Is life worth living such that even though you are forced to earn money and have almost nothing to look forward to, you will still want to work hard and live?

I agree with this. Do you have people in your life that you love or spend time with when you're not working ?

It's not just you, work is a ridiculous concept and most people buy into it without a second thought. Of course we have to because there is no other choice but accepting it is probably unhealthier than rejecting it.

Nope not really
:( I'm sorry. That's the only thing that makes me feel human. I really have been feeling disconnected and inhuman but my friends have been inviting me out and the alien feeling is gone

That's really nice of your friends. I don't really hang out with anyone anymore.

can relate. I always have a difficult time in work environments, I'm never able to fit into the whole... atmosphere of kissing the correct asses, backstabbing coworkers to get ahead, or enthusiasm about the job itself. I like physically working, but I fucking. haaaate. the workplace. I can't put up the proper front, which causes a lot of problems for me in every single position, despite the fact that I keep to myself and just do my work. Though I'm sure that I set off alarms for people, they can probably tell I'm fucked up just by my mannerisms and body movements. But i don't know.

sucks feeling like there's always a wall between me and everyone else, I wish I could be on the same level as them. It's led to feeling alone for my whole life. Like some sort of extraterrestrial that everyone avoids
