TikTok video of a young woman complaining about having to work 40 hours a week went mega-viral with millions of views on social media.

The woman, who says her name is Eliza, posts under the moniker "SupposedlyASystem," and she says that it is impossible to enjoy life while working 40 hours in order to pay the rent.

"How do people manage to enjoy life while working full time?" she wrote on the video.

"So, I work 40 hours a week so I can have a two-bedroom apartment and an extra $300 a month," she says.

POOR BABY……try working 50, 60, 70 hours a week!

When our troops were at war, they worked 168 hours a week!

Just HOW do these crybabies think this country got to be such a force in the world?

lol ... nobody has to work ... it just happens to be a pretty easy way to keep the belly full, stay warm, etc. ... much easier than running around trying to catch a rabbit or two every day while sleeping under a bush ...

It is the real deal imho.

Here is a detailed attempt to figure out whether it is a hoax or not:

Imagine how hard life was when you had to get off the sofa just to change the TV channel.

Up hills, both ways. My kids couldn't wrap their heads around having to do that.

Used to support a General who motto was you have 168 hours in a week to get the job done.

Transfer away his Executive Officer and when the General asks where the replacement is, tell him; "You have a 168 hours a week to get the job done. You don't need an Exec."

See how long that nonsense lasts.

The classic work ethic does not work in a corrupt and rigged society. Really.

This.

See post 125 for a history of this particular video.

It has a long history—this is not some kid in a basement who made it up last week.

You’re talking about a generation that spends 20 minutes getting ready to drive 10 miles to the gym.

I remember back in the sixties, in college, when I quite my “part time” job where I did the janitorial and stocking duties for a Woolworth store with a side kitchen/fountain restaurant. It took them hiring two full time and one part time guys to replace me.

Felt some satisfaction that the manager didn’t understand all the work I did until I was gone.

Read the detailed discussion—this is not just the opinion of one “quack”.

And then you had to fiddle with the knobs and the rabbit ears to get the picture better. Exhausting.

More like frustrating.

“Meanwhile a banker is pulling $500K for lending money he did nothing to earn at 15%.”

Nobody’s making you borrow it or put your money in “his” bank.

I’m convinced that’s why my parents had me. So I could be the remote

I borrow nothing.
Usury is a crime.
Are you a banker?

Jobs require banking information for direct deposit.
Many stores no longer accept cash.
Keep thinking America is free and Capitalist…
