Meanwhile, plumbers, technicians, construction workers, soldiers, etc: are we a joke to you?
More like every job that involves more labour than sitting in a chair all day watching videos.
When they have a cold I guarantee they see the Dr
So many jobs do require more from you
Don't forget automotive workers and full licensed mechanics.
As one, I'd like to add truckers to that list. Also, I have never watched anything on Twitch but a lot of people have eaten the food, taken the meds, loved the flowers, etc that I've delivered. So... Yeah, there's that.
Hasan isn't just a clown. He's an entire circus
Nah, he's the dean for the University of Clowning Arts handing out free diplomas to his viewers
@@BossyScarface Ah yes, the great UCA lol.
Goofy ahh Hasan
Please do not insult clowns by comparin Hasan to them.
At this point the only thing Hasan hasn't done justify being weird with children but seeing how vaush has been operating, I wouldn't be surprised if Hasan was that looney as well
"You've got soft hands brother." - A streamer that hasn't worked a day in their life.
The soft hands things is a joke, if you moisturise and wash your hands semi-regularly they don't harden up or callous, my father used to verbally berate me for having soft girl hands.
I was born to use a computer keyboard, my brain is wired for computer programming, but that doesn't mean these hands haven't gripped bricks or carried logs, wielded a saw or a power tool. I've dragged branches bigger than me off a tree and broken them down with a hand saw into firewood.
My hands are still soft at the supple age of 30~35 there are only a few hardened bits that I couldn't get rid of without some extreme exfoliating with a stone. I still get the comment " you mustn't work very hard" when I shake hands with an older man, it's honestly really disheartening. I just wash my hands and moisturise for medical reasons (I don't sweat like normal people do, so I need to keep my skin moist and prevent it from drying out or it'll flake and turn into 'lizard scales'
" Your hands are as soft as your mother's beard. " - some dwarf
@@Rexhunterj”Sounds like the problem of a man with soft hands who doesn’t bath in the blood of his enemies and motor oil brother.”
-Don Frye if he heard your reply probably
@@Rexhunterj if you do manual labor everyday for a living having soft hands is a disadvantage as you get more cuts and splinters and such if you have soft hands. Doing the off weekend job one time in 3 months won’t harden your hands.
@@heocon0541 that's from ed ed and eddy 😂😂😂 the guy who is the son of a shepherd said that 😂😂😂
I’ve worked for the railroad for 10 years now and it’s the most draining job I’ve ever held. Mentally, physically and emotionally. I spend days away from my wife, my quality of life is terrible because my sleep schedule is all over the place and the traveling I do makes it even harder. I come home after working all night to sleep while my wife wakes up to start her day. I sleep while she’s awake and vice versa. You can ask any person on the railroad, they will tell you the railroad “sucks the soul from you” because of the sacrifices we have to make to support our families. The nerve of this idiot to think he has it so rough.
And here I was thinking that animation was draining for your physical, mental, and emotional health. Then again, railroads are very long paths, so just building 1 mile of railroads has to be draining. I wish you the best, man. Hope you can spend more time with your wife.
Thank you for your service, sacrifice, and your true dedication. People like yourself have walked so that our society can run. You are one of the few sweet souls who understands the importance of the work you do, and not just what you earn. Your morals are stronger than the self-pity emanating from these streamers, haha!
Yeah I couldn't expect less from Hasan who was born into wealthy and constantly promotes communism in his Lamborghini.
Yah saw true
Thank you for doing what you do brother. Infrastructure work is what keeps our country going ❤
Don’t you know how difficult it is to play games for hours and get paid for it 🥶
Or talk about topics you don't even have to research about?
I'd argue the good ones are more than that. Some are the modern day radio talk show hosts and can be entertaining when you're just listening without watching the game play. I mean, do you think they're making all those jokes and having those conversations with the chat when they play off camera? I doubt it.
That's why I think so many who try it fail. They think it's literally just playing games in front of a camera so they do that in almost complete silence with little to no personality.
But, yeah, are they more important than most other jobs? Nah, entertainment is a bonus after everything else.
@@fluffywhitebudgie6376If you listen to his arguments he does need to do research 🤣
Bold of you to assume Hassan even puts in that much effort. He literally watches a UA-cam video and doesn’t say anything unless he blurts out some angry comment
It’s amazing how far Hassan’s head is up his own (UA-cam will delete comment because of a word)
HASSAN THINKS PAINTING HIS NAILS BLACK TAKES MORE TIME AND EFFORT THAN WORKING IN A 7/11
props to the 7/11 employees
lol
meanwhile the cute guy behind the counter at 7/11 manages to do both... amazing.
Also taking to consideration an armed criminal may rob you at any moment there...

People like you keep the world spinning. Thank you. 🙂
He literally doesn't the clip was taken out of context i stg optimus has fallen off
Can you tell me how that clip was taken out of context and give me a detailed explanation? @@theoccasionalsnickerdoodle2525
What do you think the context was?@@theoccasionalsnickerdoodle2525
I honestly don't think he'd last in retail for a month if he thinks streaming is more socially exhausting.
I'm a preschool teacher.
Just the mental load of doing my job CORRECTLY (while dealing with a dozen ipad addiction relapses after every single weekend) would make someone like him fold like a cheap lawn chair after one week.
My friend’s brother is a teacher, and the stuff teachers have to deal with now with some kids acting out is awful.
This was clipped out of context. This was not the point he tried to make or say. Optimus is, at this point, spreading misinformation since it was proven false before this video released
He’s adding onto fabricated drama
Yeah teachers aren't paid nearly as much as they need to for dealing with Kids.
Thank you for teaching our youth and helping them develop in their early stages of life ❤
@@andreabenton7798 Can you explain the context?
Saw Hasan in thumbnail, already know I’m going to see the dumbest take ever from that man

When I'm in a "Worst take ever" competition and my opponents are Hasan Piker and Vaush:
Why do people watch idiots like him? It's not that even that entertaining. I don't get it

@@danielutriabrooks477”What if we just like… enslaved rich people, am I right or am I right my fellow working class citizens?”
- Hasan Piker
Of course he thinks like this. Despite his "eat the rich" persona, he's a trust fund kid. His family is literally part of the 1%
More like 0.1%
The elite always parrots the working man and their popular opinions since they are afraid that if we ever rise up, they'll be targeted first, and they're right, if an honest to God, Communist uprising does occur in America today? You'll be seeing a lot of these Twitter Champagne Socialists being sent into blacksites and camps never to return by the time that revolution is led by actual Communists. They're nothing but a bunch of cowards without a spine, you'll see their true colors when truly threatened.
You’re not a very good stalker if that’s what you think. Or you just taking someone else word for it
@@tannerpayne4384dude he's literally rich from other people just giving money to him...
@tannerpayne4384 Hasans dad is a part of a political party what also has ventures where they rake in millions. His uncle is the owner and founder of TYT.
This is fact, not what I think.
And this is from fact. Not what others said.
You're not a very good stalker if you think we didn't do research
Streamers are terminally online so it shouldn’t surprise you that they know nothing about real world endeavours

This👌🏽 Most of these streamers have never worked a real job. Especially Hasan, privileged from the start.

They don’t know the feelings of working your hardest for 12 hours a day for 5 days week doing demanding, PHYSICALLY LABOR only to get 900 after taxes. Half Americans working “normal jobs” struggle to own a house cause rent is 1400 IN LOW INCOME
A men brother!
I work 12 hours for 3 days at a warehouses and I think that's difficult mostly for my feet
Some of the things hassan and asmon says blows my mind and their chat blindly agree its like a herd of sheep
Nothing like watching uncke sam skim 300 off of my check at the end of the week
@@hexapon133 REALEST COMMENT EVER😂 doing extra overtime just for a third of it to go to taxes ☠️☠️
Hassan: “Talking for 8 hours a day is draining”.

This!
Bro I worked 60 hours a week in the summer as an HVAC tech in the sun, and I thought my job was tough! I'm sorry Hassan, I'm to feel privileged, you're the true fucken hero!
Hassan piker is a comie believer what do you expect
For real! I used to do HVAC in las vegas during the summer! The job is no joke at all.
I'm a butcher its not the most exusting job out there but trust me I would absolutely jump at the chance to play video games all day for a living
NGL imma go to my local butcher and get some Prime Rib.
and get money thrown at you non stop while getting complemented every other millisecond
I've butchered a lot of deer, but I never really learned all the cuts besides backstrap and tenderloins.
Hasan is barely a streamer, he is a professional video watcher
"Professional" might he giving too much credit.
Political reactionary
“Professional” maybe get rid of that word. He is never professional, he is an angry person that yells in his stream like a temper tantrum child.
He is a horrible person
He doesn't even react to the video. His reactions are to either not react when it is something he likes, constantly stop to argue against something that person says mid point if he doesn't like, or leave for a bathroom break if he couldn't care less about the video.
I would say streamer make their job draining. At the end of the day they are their own boss. As a streamer you can change content, change game, change whatever you want.
A normal job is always draining and there’s nothing you can do. Nothing you can change. Same think over and over.
exactly.
some people don’t realize how easy they got it
I realize how easy I got it
Hassan is a nepo baby who didn’t really have to work for anything his career started out with him getting a job with his uncle on TYT then he used that as a springboard to start his streaming career and basically didn’t have to do any of the leg work on building up a viewer base.
I was in the marine corps from 2018-22. I enlisted at age 18, i deployed to the middle east at 19 for the first time, and the second at 21. Lost a few friends. Seen alot of other marines lose their lives/themselves. He has no idea what hes talking about
Thank you for your service
Nah being a streamer is harder and more mentally draining. Your job is “just physical” so you can do more after you’re done.
This is sarcasm. Hasan hasn’t put in 1/10th of the work you have. Thank you for your service

My father works in a trade. Some days, he works from 1 pm to 3 am. When he comes home, he is tried and aching all over.
I personally can chime in. I have 313k followers on TikTok and I’ve been a Journeyman Ironworker for 5 years and welded 40k gallon pressure vessels in a shop for a year. I can 100% tell you making military history videos is way easier and it pays better…. YES, it gets tiring but 3 years of making videos was easier than one day of throwing 325lb sheets of deck when it’s 115°F outside on skyscrapers
Hasan? Having a bad take? NO WAY! I'm shocked, flabbergasted even!
Possibly even bamboozled
Must be a day that ends with Y
My gast has been flabbered
Your subscription must end now 😂
I’d rather be drained making tens of thousands on UA-cam a month then be drained working retail for $15 an hour.
why tf are you working retail for minimum wage? How on earth did you even find a minimum wage job in 2024?
@BeetleBuns because a bunch of people that aren't supposed to be here get less than min wage and forces companies to cut those who make more than.
Happened to me a few times. Someone is willing to take 8 an hour. So it's time for them to cut me, so they can picket the difference. Then instead of paying the new ones more. They hire people who take even less.
Or you sleep with them then you can both make more money hit keep your job while not working. Experience that too, coworkers can't do the load, but somehow I can't refuse to pick up their weight.
It's by design.
@@slimm420find a warehouse job pays more than minimum wage
@@slimm420 man that's wild. I work retail in NC and they pay me 15 an hour base pay, plus another dollar for 3rd shift
@@BeetleBuns and I'm in Texas mind you.
I did have an IT job giving me 15 an hour, but I wasn't gonna do the work for a temp agency, and work 1-day contracts.
Streamers who feel that way should take a month or two off and actually work to see how they feel
Or even try applying at the corner store
I work 12 hour shifts in the ER, on my feet the whole time. I have to deal with death and tragedy multiple times a day as well as navigate extremely stressful situations almost every hour. To say that streamers have a more draining job is a joke.
I just want to remind everyone who has actual jobs: Us, the working class, are the backbone of society. We give people homes to live in, food to eat, and protect their children. We might not get the money, but we can proudly say that we keep it all running.
In his defense, it has to take an extraordinary amount of effort to be so wrong so often.
Regardless of who had it worse, there is one thing most people will agree on.
That this dude should be the last person to make this kind of statement..
im so tired of the whole ''to be fair'' arguments now adays
@@shinski8114 If you can't read the sarcasm in my statement then I would suggest you get an eye exam pronto. My words were far from ACTUALLY 'trying to be fair' to the cretin.
the difference is streaming is a dream career for many people. most people at 9-5's don't want to be working there and would absolutely trade places with Hasan if given the opportunity.
Hasan is a tankie so I wouldn't take him very seriously
What do you mean by this?
@@fleshplushie Dude - just Google these things 🙄
@fleshplushie
Communist, I believe it's slang for.
@@fleshplushieA communist who believes in militaristic takeover
@@fleshplushie "tankie" is a term used for western communists that don't actually understand how communism has been executed in reality. They always give excuses like "no no! You don't understand! That wasn't REAL communism!" "Stalin and Mao didn't do anything wrong! Their victims were traitors!"
They're called talkies because they are often depicted as people who dream of driving a tank over protestors. Much like what happened in the 80s.
Meanwhile deep sea welders: Tf is you on cousin?😂😂
I'm a mechanic and every day I deal with POS cars and fix whatever may be wrong with them. If I had the chance, I would jump at the opportunity to stream and play games every day and get paid for it.
this is why i hate streamers bro, they have to be some of the most entitled and annoying people on this planet
Tell me you’ve never struggled financially or worked an actual job a single hour in your life, without actually telling me
Yea man sitting in front of a computer all day that’s really really draining salute the streamers out here breaking their back out here working hard playing video games
The worst part about a job for me is knowing, This is it....This is what i'll be doing until i die or retire. there is no way out. this is ultimately the only thing that will get me through every day life. Day in and Day out. good days and bad, this is all there will be forever. there was a video i watched of some millionaire kid who decided to be "homeless" for 1 month and at the end was saying how it really isn't all that bad and all i could think about is the homeless guy who's mind set and attitude toward life was probably the same, "I have no future other than this. i'm stuck forever and there is no sign of getting out and saving myself"
I see all these labor workers, and I appreciate you all, so I’ll throw my hat into the ring even though it’s lesser. I work at a grocery store, pushing carts and bagging groceries and sweeping floors, etc, and I know it’s not working in the coal mines, but this guy needs to shut up thinking he has it bad. He gets to sit in his chair and sip on his gfuel while taking donations and sponsors.
Streamers will talk about how much they make but don’t know how to change the oil on their car.
My brother in christ, these people are sitting and playing games all day long and getting paid... while most of us has to wake up early in the morning heading to our 9 to 5 five days in a row... and they are crying having to play games... brother, let's switch places I am ready for it
I just don't think "streamers" and youtubers should be making millions. It's overkill.
You have to remember entertainment sells more than hard jobs I mean look at any sport, a man has a 10 year contract of 700 million for playing baseball than any highly important job well ever see.
@@nevillegear830Because that man sells a lot of tickets and also does ad campaigns on the side, not taking into account that he also has to be someone that's particulary good and trauns almost every day
Dont worry, it's only a very small set of streamers that make millions. Everyone else gets less that a fraction of that.
@@jayl5032they still get thousands
blame the ppl giving them the money like yourself. Dont donate to million dollar streamers like hassan.
Hasan is the definition of a privileged rich kid
yet hes popular, rich and successful and alot of people love him i just dont understand our society lots and lots of dentheads out here
Ugh, it's so hard and draining to scroll twitter and rant to an echo chamber all day
this dude has made millions of dollars, he can just stream for less hours and still have the ability to support himself. he is his own boss, he is the one making himself stream for 9 hours a day when most people arent gonna sit thru all of that. if he gets perma banned on twitch he can switch to another platform and still have a decently sized audience and the ability to still make money, if i get fired from my job it will take at least a week to find a new one, probably closer to a month until that next pay check from a new job to hit my bank. his platform was pretty much handed to him thru the young turks and destiny, he did not need to grind nearly as hard as most content creators do. dont forget about the effortless content that he pumps out by reacting, not adding anything, and just has the money rolling in. he does not have to worry about normal people problems, dude wants to pretend to struggle to seem more relatable.
You will never convince me that a streamers job is hard. Literally ever.
The only argument for the point, is the emotional toll could possibly be more taxing than in a standard job. But for so many streamers, they have either never held down a normal job or had one for a very small amount of time. Stating their job is more taxing is out of touch with factors they will never have to deal with in their profession.
i would argue that if you want to say its an emotional toll talk to a teacher, cop, any medical professional, and idols they will all have some stories to tell
It’s not tho imagine working for 12 hours straight almost everyday doing the same thing over and over and tell me it doesn’t drain your soul more than sitting at your desk in your multi million dollar mansion looking at whatever you decide is interesting
That sort of statement is extremely dependent upon the specific kind of job. For example in many jobs involving customer service or public relations, the emotional toll can be more taxing than a streamer’s job. Same can also apply to jobs that are in a fast paced environment, or about very sensitive situations, etc
Don’t understand why it’s always a competition, Streaming can be draining, other jobs can be draining, that’s it. Why Hassan has to posture like Streaming is the #1 most draining job is ridiculous, there’s no point in trying to rank these types of things.
Bro making 100x what i make to sit in his house and yap for a whole week
And he barely even yaps. He just lets the video play then take a long break and goes somewhere in his house. He is a scammer
We have to call to police at least twice a week, and last week a guy self-deleted off of the building across the street. The stress level where I work is so high almost all of the 80 employees have drinking problems...... so yeah.
I work nightshift at a petrol/gas station job. 5 nights a week with 2 days off. Ive had weapons held up to me, called every name under the sun, robbed, harassed outside of work and i sometiems work over 10 nights in a row when it gets bad.
My job ain't the hardest, but by god my soul is drained where I routinely do not go outside or better myself because i am drained. Energy levels are fine but im used to rotting away in my bed for my days off.
Being a streamer is basically like being unemployed on camera
Im an 18 year old woman working 8 hours a day, 5 days a week in a factory, not to mention that i have a second job as well. I wish people would stop making stuff like this a competition. Going off the title alone, i have to disagree.

I work on a submarine. 7am-6pm is an average day for me. I also regularly have to work weekends and sometimes don't even get to go home because the ship has to be manned 24/7. This is on top of getting treated like dirt by senior leadership and having to stay even after all the work is done because I have to do training.
I remember for years watching my dad working in his IT job: he would wake up at like 7 to make his commute to the city, work 9-5, take the train back, and then promptly log back into work remotely until 3 in the morning because of project deadlines. 70-80 hours a week on a regular basis. Now that's soul crushing.
but hasan is weawy tiwerd from pwaying video games all day
As a technician, I can conform that diagnosing sometimes unsolvable issues while having random bystanders breathe down my neck is not nearly as draining as gaming
Saying that knowing people work on Black Friday is crazzzy
If i have a bad take im liable to get written up or fired. He has a bad take and other people make videos about him driving more traffic to his page
I worked 11 years in customer service...these streaming guys have no idea what stress is.
I worked at Dollar Tree, streaming is nothing compared than working in a store that had no ac in the summer, having the sun beam the back of your neck because you're running cash registers, all that and being harassed by an old lady because my smile wasn't big enough and there's 20+ people in line and someone decided to buy $257 worth of items.
I work as a brewmaster and a distiller for the past few years. No matter if you're a blue collar worker or working in retail dealing with people it's significantly more draining than streaming.
Radiologic technologists: Jokes on you, ours become too gruelling with the influx of patients plus diagnostic imaging data requests from physicians.
I can get how content creation can be stressful, meeting quotas, audience retention, not falling out of popularity. But anything involving manual labor is more difficult than sitting at a computer (I know there’s more to content creation than that, just giving an example)
He has somewhat of a point, but executed it very poorly
I also understand the social aspect, get big enough on the internet and you could get doxxed, people in public constantly recognizing you and asking for pictures, that could also be annoying depending on who you are
Streaming ain't a hard job than working in the oil industry
Thank God those rough necks work as hard as they do
Next time a coworker gets berated by a customer to the point of tears I’ll make sure to remind them that at least they aren’t a millionaire streamer who gets to mute and block people.
Hasan is literally the worst streamer to say this like I understand if Ishowspeed says this that man pours every bit of his emotions for his streams. Hasan could just turn on a video in the background and get thousands while the worst he'll get is some controversy. Also my man just told everyone he has no soul at this point
Bruh I work as a food runner, how is it hard to complain about streaming even tho, your sitting in yo room and playing games. Lol
These people have ALL of the time AND money in the world to invest into playing video games and streaming. Yet, the people who can barely afford rent or a decent mortgage for a house who work full time jobs have a fraction of the time these streamers have who play video games 24/7.
I can see what he is saying i believe its just out of context. I think hes saying that streaming for 9 hours consecutively having to constantly interact with people is more mentally draining for your social battery than any other job. Lots of other jobs are much more physically and financially stressful. He has admitted that he is very lucky to be a very popular streamer and is grateful that he is in that position.
I am just saying
All job are hard
Wether a streamer ,plumber ,teacher , soilder and chef
They have own problem to tackle it in different and unique way
Even as a part timer its hard because
A, you are a broke college student want to get food on a table and study for the test
B,you try so hard ro find a full time but its really hard
I hate this type of take, not all jobs are even comparable to each other. A truck driver isn't a firefighter nor is a burger flipper a truck driver.
@@xldkxnewyorker8914 i agree with you
But every job have to tackle their own problem

I dont say this job is way harder than that job
Yeah man, working at a cancer hospital pharmacy and telling people that we can’t give them their cancer medicine for a few weeks due to a manufacturing issue or that their doctor hasn’t signed off the prescription yet DEFINITELY doesn’t give NEARLY as much of a mental toll as being a live streamer.

Blue collar worker : I’d like to be there @1pm but I’ll prolly get fired . So I have to wake up @5am and be outta the house by 5:45 am to beat the morning traffic rush. If I don’t make it on time I might still get fired. Nice 👍🏽
i left highschool early, worked parttime till 18 then went to work fulltime ever since, im nearing 23 these days. I worked at goodwill(not long), lazer tag party host(2 years till i turned 18), then i started working fulltime at a gym overnight as a cleaner, very humbling the stuff i had to clean daily and disassociate to get it done and keep some pride(did this for another 2 years till i turned 20), then i worked a warehouse order fullfillment job for a year and a half, very stressful and all consuming, made it to a point where i was off the order picking lines and loading and unloading trucks with the finished pallets, walked around 15k-25k steps there a day 5 days a week, all lugging around a few hundred pound pallet jack behind me, paying attention to forklift traffic and other workers. I had to leave that job after some reoccurcurrent panic attacks, saw a video of a forklift accident and it scarred me to the point I was scared that something like that would happen to me, as I was often exhausted and I know for a fact the forklift drivers deal with mental fatigue as well, swapped careers to something less dehumanizing/industrial and im feeling better nowadays. It's insulting to hear him say his opinion on everyone's hardwork, I certainly would agree that being a streamer might be a harder job than others, but thats only if you are holding yourself to the same customer facing standards as most other entertainment jobs, I don't think this streamer is doing that, and at the end of the day, I feel as though in his particular case unless his spending is unsustainable, he doesn't even have to go back to work a day in his life as a streamer and would be set finically. I see so many sacrifices made by even the most below average humans in the workforce, even some of my worse coworkers and the worse people on teams I've led have a better work ethic, and viewpoint on working in general. Me though? i hated working and always felt pressured to be perfect at my job at all times, wasnt till i realized how unsustainable that mindset was, however led to the better mindset of just showing up and doing the best I can, with what I have. Dont wanna waste 8 hours of my life daily anywhere doing the bare minimum, complaining, and having bad attitude, might as well become the best i can if im gonna be there hahaha.
THEY ARE NOT REAL PEOPLE
As a plumber i can say it is definitely one of the most difficult jobs out there not only are the hours long and sometimes have to travel but its physically intense work whether you're a service plumber or new construction building the infrastructure for cities and neighborhoods and then on top of that you have the stress of sales in the service side and customer service plumbing hits every point physical labor customer services long hours sales traveling and its dangerous I've known guys whove had their whole bodies caught on fire tunnels collapsing and killing everyone inside its the hardest yet most rewarding job I've ever had and most people wouldn't last a week doing it
"Tax the rich but not me"- Hasan
The oil rig workers seeing streamers say that streaming is harder than their job:
I think it's a different type of difficult. The negative comments, the abuse, the countless hours they have to put in behind the scenes with planning and researching topics, the anxiety they must feel when they lose subs and them desperately needing to stay relevant in order to retain their good lifestyles must be pretty mentally draining. And I assume that talking about negative and depressing political issues day in day out must be pretty tough too.
Maybe for another streamer I might believe it? But the comment coming from Hasan is what makes it particularly ridiculous. Half of the time he engages in bad faith with regards to politics. Then the other half of the time he’s simply reacting mildly to a video that someone ELSE put in the time and energy to create
If streaming is exhausting, I seem to be in a death sentence as a landscaper who does terraforming.
My dad is a tree service worker and he works from 6am to 8pm as a 48 yo. Even when he comes home he is all happy but you can see it in his eyes and the way he struggles to stand that it’s taking a toll on him.
I work at grocery store and I get burnt out too but I would NEVER say that my pain is worse than others. Especially after seeing what my dad does.
Hasan has never had a job.
only those who actively stream longer than 8-12 Hours will officially work harder than Me.
these really put in the work for their goal.
I just work at the Best McDonald's (when it comes to time and product quality) in the Netherlands.
on the side I just trade on the Stockmarket while Making Music.
(oh btw 8 Hours of Taking Orders in the McDrive destroys My brain)
The streamers are prob the same ones who would cry ptsd for working at a fast food joint
I spend 8 hours a day moving around the office, putting away dishes, paper batches as well as office supplies, and only an hour for lunch, then come home completely stressed and sleep until the next day to repeat the same procedures all over again.
All streamers do every day and all day is just set up a computer and streaming gear and yak-yak-yak all day (and probably get swatted).
So... a regular 9 to 5 job is STILL more stressful than a streamer's job.
Go figure.
I would respect them more if they previously did a extremely tough jobs before, but someone like hassn or pokimain has never had to really "work" a day in their entire lives.
I agree somewhat with the social part, but try going to work at 4 am for 6 hours at fedex and then playing in an orchestra when you have to be perfect at everything and making no mistakes. That's what I do and it drains me. Also as a streamer you can do what you want take breaks and have control of your own life. Also most other jobs don't give you millions of dollars for just talking and reacting
Sitting at a desk to entertain people or using programs to make your own content “WAAA SO HARD WAAA IT IS SO TERRIBLE” like how disconnected do you have to be from the majority of people. Dude probably makes more money than a worker and still complains about it.
the job I do ( freelance art and motion design) may not be as demanding as a physical labor job, but crunch time, stress, and going fast to meet deadlines is indeed hard, and very draining. You lose sleep, sometimes you have to do all night and day work, its hard work. Not as physically demanding as others but still hard work. If I could make as much money or more streaming then that would be amazing, but I love my art job, and although it can be draining, I still love it.
Basically: this dude has the easiest job and is complaining that its so draining. Bro. People wish they could be in your position.
I work a full time job and stream daily, multi hour streams mind you. Full time jobs that are 9-5 equivalent with physical work is far far harsher than streaming will ever be.
As a soldier I can say that this is cap
Good advice for everyone. Work life balance. Sign in/clock in, do your job, clock out and go home . For your own well being take PTO, take a vacation.
playing call of duty with your buddies from the comfort of your home in pj's and getting paid hundred thousands of dollars is alot more tiring than driving a semi across the state for over 16 hours straight fighting the urge to fall asleep behind the wheel lol
The Only draining Job out there for a streamer is a Helldiver 2 Streamer
Bro everyday my jobs expectations are raised and more rules are set in place. The fact our jobs get progressively worse is reason enough.
Im a cop I feel like no one thinks or cares about our mental health I feel it’s taking a toll on all of my personal relationships
I was working full-time in the pandemic as a Govt employee under Environmental health, I was put in-charge of monitoring Covid 19 Vaccine empty vials and had to travel long hours to pick up all the vials (in sacks) in each Municipality. I also responded to a Typhoon disaster Late 2021 to early 2022 and got COVID 19 because of it.
Streamers who stay at home, play games all day/talk to chat all day saying their job is harder than me, a normal person, is beyond my comprehension. AND I AM JUST AN ORDINARY GUY, what about the hard-labor people?
What about the Health workers who actually deal with sickness all day?
What about the professionals with people's lives on their hands?
People like Hamas Piker will always portray themselves as victims because hardship is what they dream of. (Until real hardships actually come their way.)
This is like saying being a gas station clerk is complicated…
Heres a lesson:
Don’t be an idiot and it won’t be hard.
Dude. When I got into retail, it was one of the happiest days of my life because I no longer had to deal with food. Once I got into a fulfillment center, I became even happier because I no longer have to deal with customers. I know being a streamer has some difficulty but it's nothing compared to what others go through. There are construction workers sweating all day. If being a streamer is so hard then these people wouldn't last a day with a real job.
I can understand how being an actor or another type of entertainer can be draining. But being a streamer? Honestly, Not as much.
