so i think im going to go back

welp fellas,

after working shitty corporate jobs in America, making well above the nation and local average, i somehow have less money than i did working bullshit jobs in china. Life here kind of sucks, and while there are many beautiful places in America, i don’t get to see them because im stuck at this shitty job all the time. I don’t even see my family any more than i would if i lived in China.

So.

I have a walk on spot at an easy breezy university job, what do you think? Go back to china and live the easy life, but have to deal with their pain in the ass government, or stay in america and live a safer life, but have to deal with my pain in the ass job.

Yeah being on an island does make it easier but it still requires good governance. The UK being a prime example of an island nation performing badly.

Media regarding real life people and events should provide appropriately sourced background context or risk deletion. On a spectrum from daily life musings to cultural commentary to political soapboxing, moderation of media will tighten.
