work is so demeaning

and boring and soul destroying

why can't I be appreciated for the niche genius I am

Can you envisage a type of work that you would enjoy?

I know exactly what I would enjoy but am advised that liking indoor work, near a park ideally Central Park West, Iranian rugs, proximity to Zabars, and not actually having to provide solutions,  do not mean I would be a good psychoanalyst. Apparently you have to be able to fake liking, or at least not disliking, your clients.

I reckon you could make something out of hating them as a form of therapy

That's basically a dom though?  Which yes money but less nice rugs and prestige.

well I like to do work I just wish I didn't have to work for idiots and get treated like a moron by morons 

a guy today was trying to tell me about free trade agreements

he did not know anything about free trade agreements

I mean I am not an expert either but I know more than zero things and I don't go around bossing folk

What Tangent Boy said at 13:06.

But not as 'Yet another tax advisory firm'.

The last three full-time roles I had didn't exist until I persuaded people that they would be valuable and that they should be created.  Applies to my current activities too but they are all project based/part-time which may not suit you.

I was about to write that it also applies to IT but according to Edward Snowden there is a degree of bullshitting involved, customers want this and that and programmers promise whatever and then see whether it’s possible at all 

When the world has screwed you
And crushed you in its fist
When the way you're treated
Has got you good and pissed
There's been one solution
Since the world began
Don't just sit and take it
Stick it to the man

Rant and rave and scream and shout
Get all of your aggression out
They try to stop you let 'em know
Exactly where they all could go
And do it just as loudly as you can
Stick it to the man

Parents overwork ya?
Stick it to the man
Hate the way they jerk ya?
Stick it to the man
Tired of the system?
Stick it to the man
Rise up and resist them
Stick it to the man

Break the rules, ignore the signs
And color way outside the lines
Go off the script, do what you like
They hate it, they can take a hike
Why live your life to someone else's plan?
Stick it to the man

Put some of it into your music

Piss the politicians
Stick it to the man
Had it with the hipsters?
Stick it to the man
Sick of corporate culture?
Stick it to the man
Get up off your iPad
And stick it to the man

Rock the house and make a scene
And crank the amps to 17
And scream until their ears are shot
They all can kiss your you-know-what
Do everything they ever tried to ban
Stick it to the man

When the world has screwed you
And crushed you in its fist
When the way you're treated
Has got you good and pissed
There's been one solution
Since the world began
Don't just sit and take it
Stick it to the man

Rant and rave and scream and shout
And stick your middle finger out
And wreck your room and rip your jeans
And show 'em what rebellion means

Why march to someone else's caravan?
Especially those you're so much cooler than
It's time to throw some shit against the fan

There's no way you can stop
The School of Rock

Stick it to the man
