A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I found this to be true too. 16 years old minimum wage supermarket job: had to work every second of the shift and was micromanaged to hell.
Now a professional engineer earning almost 10 times minimum wage and I have to pace myself so that I don't run out of work during the 3 days I'm in the office, followed by 2 days WFH where I rarely have any work left to do.
You should use those 2 days to maybe see a doctor... rectal cancer is no joke.
