    A lot of those shows have aged pretty badly in terms of what “struggling” looks like. The idea of a boring office job being some awful fate is also kinda dated.

    At least shows like the Simpsons were self aware about this.

      A boring office job is an awful fate, we should bring that perception back!

        There’s a fair few people who would straight up murder someone for a boring, stable office job.

        For you. I miss it, it was calm, the schedule was never a surprise and I never had to do 4 other people’s jobs because half the building calls off every other day. There’s far worse than office jobs, and it’s called retail.
