You see the TV adverts on British terrestrial television. All these flashy young things running around looking good and pretending that they're the satisfied, employed clients of a recruitment firm called Monster.co.uk.

Look deeply at therm. They're actors, playing out little non-speaking roles whilst voiceover actors supply the monologues played over the session musicians' backing track.

NONE OF THIS SHIT IS REAL.

As the advert goes: "What are you working for?"

The actors say "I work for the future." "I work to create style." "I work because I care." "I work for my family." "Sometimes a job's a job. Sometimes it's a career."

**What smug, self - satisfied BULLSHIT!!**

"I work, because I'm going to starve in a cardboard box if I don't."

"I work because it's money."

"I work, and it's cost me the capacity to fucking care."

"I work, but it's cost me my family."

"Sometimes a job's a job. Sometimes it's a luxury."

Y'see, I'm more likely to understand people if they were motivated to work for the following reasons.

"I work, because my Dad did this job and it's a closed shop. I spend eight hours a day pushing a fucking button over and over, but it was my Dad's job and it's the only one going in this bastard ghost town."

"I work, because I am such a drone that I have no identity of my own. I used to collect photos of flowers and laugh at the funny shapes of clouds and kiss girls. Now, I just collect dust and kiss my boss's arse."

"I work, because my careers guidance officer in school didn't have any other advice to offer me. My education was a bleeding waste. I never learned one fucking thing."

"i work, because I was told by some high and mighty bastard politician now in London who never had a poor day in his LIFE got into power in my local council on the 'let's bash the workshy scroungers' ticket, meaning that I have to do this pointless task building playing card pyramids for Chairman Tony Blairski, or they'll cut off my benefit and I'll starve."

"I work, because if I complain that it's killing me, they'll sack me and replace me with five Poles that they'll exploy at one third the wage they're paying me."

"I work, because I don't know what else to do."

"I work, because if I don't, I won't be poor. I'll be broke."

Honestly. Monster DOES NOT work for me.
