Is it normal to think people who want a job are losers?

    Yeah, cos having the stress and responsibility of self employment/owning your own company is so much fun.

    I'm self employed (sole trader). It doesn't feel like winning. It feels like a pain in the arse having no set holiday time, having to constantly worry about job security if I lose a client, having to worry about all the tax stuff. And my stuff is fairly straight forward. I've seen people with actual companies that they own (small busineses) and its that shit amplified plus more.

    I see nothing loserish about people who who do not work for themselves.

      i agree with you! i see my boss everyday stressing about money, bills, stock and whatnot, and after a while i guess it's too much because he started losing it. I love not having to worry about everything else then doing my job and doing it wright, it's so much easier and i am a lot happier than he is.

      It's only as stressful as you make it.

          People pay for what I do or have, or I barter. Mostly though, I work for ME, I make and get my food, clothing and shelter.

            You make it sound like you are some kind of mountain man/drug dealer.

              I think bum would have been a better word. The OP considers begging for quarters on the street as being his own boss, And the rats he kills in the alleyways to be "making" his own food, and the oil stained rags he stole from the dumpster as "clothing".

              Yes sir this person doesnt any crap from the man and is totally "self made".
