Work at home. Not what you think.
Filed under: Hmmm
Homework, I don’t believe we ever really get away from it. It is not just for school anymore. I am not sure if it was ever just for school. You have homework from school, of course, but you also have homework from work and if you are interested in something I bet you have homework from that as well.
Homework, itself is not really bad. I think the term has negative connotations though, bad vibes from when we were in school and homework was a thing of horror and evil that cut into our time to play and our, our time. Really, after spending hours in school not being able to be kids we were then supposed to spend time at home doing stuff that did at school. It was truly just another form of torture we had to suffer through for some unknown reason. After school I was not interested in doing any homework, who would have been? You are a kid, you want to get your play time in before you have to go to school. All through school it never really got better, there was always something that would be better to be doing. Especially in college when you had to take certain classes where you already knew the stuff but you still were required to take them because some anonymous a-hole had decided it was required for the degree and it didn’t matter if you could teach it better than the instructor you still had to sit through it so they could make a little check on a piece of paper and feel important. Yes, I am a bit bitter about the whole school thing.
Keep in mind though that I love learning and when doing homework that is of my making or that just makes sense I have absolutely no problem with it. If you are doing what you want, it makes all the difference, right? After a while you get to the point where you just put up with any homework because you realize that it is just step on the way to whatever goal you are trying to achieve. That homework in school when you had no choice about going, that’s torture though.
