The Rat Race

Your job doesn't define who you are as a person. Just because you are a data entry clerk, doesn't mean that you are a mindless drone. And just because you are a lawyer, doesn't mean that you are smarter or better than anyone. Your job is something you do in order to pay the bills. It's important, but it is not your purpose. I've seen far too many people put their whole identity into their job. Sacrificing friendships, marriages, and even their own health. Only to get laid off and not know who they are anymore. So don't join the rat race. Even if you win, you're still a rat.
