      If they’re lucky, and hopefully they are! There are a LOT more bad jobs out there than sitting inside and looking at screens.

        Right, could always be in a poorly ventilated warehouse breaking your back, killing your lungs, and developing arthritis. Though I guess arthritis will come for the office warrior as well.

          Exactly! I used to work manual labor, and finally found a job that I can actually get through a day without aching or wishing I was dead. Don’t knock on office work, because there are plenty of worse jobs that can be had!
