motivated people
Meanwhile, motivated people (who really don’t need to be paid to work)...
-
Work very long days. Because they are salaried, they must work 5-6 days a week, 8-10 hours a day. Ironically, “low value” workers, who aren’t motivated, work 3-4 days a week, 4-6 hours a day.
-
Motivated people have their job description set by the corporation they work for. The corporation sets its goals based on market demand.
Market demand is partially influenced by non-workers, who want large televisions because they’re bored, the extremely wealthy, who want superfluous mansions and a yachts, and motivated workers, who are overstressed by working too much and need expensive toys, entertainment, and holidays to detox.
In other words, “motivated people” rarely get to think about and/or act upon the next section...

My abduction “story” is a new twist on HP Lovecraft’s short stories, where the protagonist enters the story as an average person, sees some Cthulhuoids, and leaves via an insane asylum. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lovecraft)
I started out insane, and gradually become sane throughout the “story”… by distributing my insanity points to others via this document. (http://www.disclosuree.com/RozakAbduction.pdf)

if you didn’t have to work, but still wanted to...
After leaving Microsoft, I asked myself the question, “I don’t have to work, but I still want to. What do I want to do?”
-
I wanted to do something that helped society... in ways that I personally thought that society needed to improve, not in ways that a corporate boss thought important.
-
As a sub-step, part of “the work” that I did was to think about (and research) what work needed to be done (by me).
-
One thing I DIDN’T do was self-assign me multiple “jobs” and goals. Doing the same task day-in and day-out, and/or trying to achieve the same goal day-in and day-out, leads to burnout.
Flip this around to yourself: In most western cultures, you can live on unemployment for the rest of your life, and don’t really have to work for a business. In other words, you are (to an extent) financially impendent. What kind of volunteer work do you want to do?

An image of the “Far Side” cartoon, “Imbeciles of the world untie [sic – “unite”]” should go here. The image is a heard of imbeciles on a protest march, carrying an upside-down banner with “Imbeciles of the world untie.” I can’t find the image on the internet though.
“Geeks (and artsy types) of the world unite… and pervert the course of history!”

Who do you work for? -
What is your work doing to benefit yourself, beyond money?
-
How does it benefit people you don’t agree with?
-
How does it benefit society?
-
How does it benefit society in ways that you think are important?
-
How much do telepathy-bots (by influencing people’s intuition) influence your job-selection criteria and your boss’s “we need to do this” decisions?
-
Do you let the imbeciles of the world influence where your (volunteering) labour is spent? How much do wealthy people influence it? Intelligent people? Philanthropic people?
-
Are you working for several organizations, only one of whom actually pays your salary?

To be “ubernided” – To have Ubernids land on your Hominid planet with a semi-friendly but enormous military, and then incorporate your much smaller planetary military into their own, offering your generals and politicians either retirement package A (on a sunny planet) or retirement package B (under the ground).
As a general and/or politician, it would be political suicide to ask your arch-enemies, the reptiloids, “animal” people, and/or “bugs” to help prevent the Ubernids from landing.

This is my joke.
As you can see, I’m not very funny, nor am I the source of most of the jokes in this document.
In fact, most of what I have written here is typed via Avatar remote-control technology TM, so I can’t even admit to typing the document.
