Whether intentionally or unintentionally you're demonstrating the concept of privilege that some people are making efforts to point out.
You want to play the game that you want because you believe yourself to be a rational, intelligent, logical person.
You believe you can win the game.
You don't oversleep, you have a generous data plan.
You can choose.
And you're complaining that the game isn't useful because it doesn't fully allow you to choose.
The type of person that drives for Uber and Lyft in real life don't have the privilege to choose. They are driving for Uber and Lyft.
That's why it's hard.
You may have worked hard to be where you are, you have done it from a kid squatting on the ground to poop in a third world country to being the top earner at a tech company, all by yourself. That's great, that's rare, you deserve whatever accolades you choose to laud yourself with.
Or maybe it's not that dramatic of a distance. Maybe you're a middle-income family that could work to afford college education and you studied and worked hard to afford good sleep and generous data plans.
That initial position is still much better in the distribution model of modern society than many others that can never leave their situation.
What do you choose to do about it?
