Good thing I created a throwaway account so that the background check investigators for my high-stakes job won't be able to link this sentiment to my real identity. After all, I am responsible for a lot of people.
but may I offer a way forward? How about living out of spite, to outlive all your enemies and detractors, all the idiots who get to breathe air for free?
it's not a happy thought, but it may provide for you to live longer, and who knows, life indeed might be rosy, and if not, at-least you didn't give any quarter to the dumbos, you will have fought the good fight.
I constantly wonder, however, if my true purpose is to be a failure. Maybe God needs someone for others to point at and say "see that guy, don't live your life that way."

Thank you for sharing this. Incredible bluntness explanation of our reality - and ourselves.
There are plenty of them already. The shortage God has are the people who look at where they are, maybe not the best place, and look for the steps to climb out. They’re sometimes hidden but they’re always there, sometimes in plain sight.
Does this sentiment make a person better or worse at their job? I’ve heard it’s impossible for a human mind to imagine its own death. Someone with the raw creativity or intelligence to do that might be more helpful than not?
