how essential is it 2 be employed? by employed... i don't mean, busy. i mean having a job! coz thatz wot people think employment is, rite?
but since when did i start thinking of wot ppl think..? hmm... showing signs of unemployment, i guess!
if u think all day, then at the end of the day, are u still unemployed? isn't employment of the mind better than sheer employment of the body? is a 9-5 worker more employed than a writer? what decides employment? pay packets? or the payment that the mind gets for staying sharp? what if am happy without a job? maybe i belong to the niche club which feels good just thinking, writing or doing anything (non-remunerative, of course!)?
is it worth toiling in a glass office behind a workstation, just so peers, family & frenz would think u're "employed"?
hmm...

what decides employment
This thing really got me thinking. Thanks to this link one of the meanings of employment is ...
Employment is a contract between two parties, one being the employer and the other being the employee. In a commercial setting, the employer conceives of a productive activity, generally with the intention of creating profits, and the employee contributes labour to the enterprise, usually in return for payment of wages.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Employment
Hmmm, i guess "wages" here need not necessarily mean "money". The basic idea is to perform a set of actions towards a specific goal and not just sit idle and wander about in your thoughts :-)
