Man ‘sums up life perfectly’ in rant over how he’s working ‘9 jobs’ he didn’t know he had

Lots agreed with his rant that he was working all sorts of jobs without realising it

A bloke who seems pretty fed up has said he's figured out why he's so tired and it's because he's 'working for nine different companies'.

Not literally of course, because if he was working nine jobs and getting paid for it he'd firstly be earning quite a decent bit of money and secondly be dead of exhaustion.

This guy, a TikToking comedian called Les Keen, said the reason he was so tired all the time is because he's doing all sorts of bits and bobs for other places in his life.

People have said his rant 'sums up life perfectly' and agreed with Les in droves about all the extra responsibilities we're expected to perform for companies that make their living doing these things.

His full speech really is quite something and plenty rushed into the comments afterwards to let him know he wasn't alone in his frustration

Les reckoned he was so tired because he was working 'about nine jobs I wasn't aware of'.

"I've decided why I'm knackered all the time and I've realised the reason is I'm thinking about nine jobs that I wasn't aware of," Les said at the start of his rant.

"I'm working for nine different companies that I wasn't aware I was working for. I work for the Post Office picking up all the things they can't be bothered to deliver, 'cause apparently I'm out.

"I work for the Gas Board and the Electricity Board reading their meters, I work for the local supermarket scanning the shopping, doing their job right although they don't trust me to scan the booze for some reason.

"I work for IKEA making furniture, I work for the budget airlines checking myself in and printing my tickets off.

"I work in IT for Virgin Media fixing my broadband and I work part time for Amazon taking in my neighbours' parcels."

People told Les he'd just 'summed up life perfectly'.

Over a million people have watched his rant and so many have agreed with Les that they're infuriated by all the little extra jobs they have to do.

One told him he'd 'forgot working for the council sorting your recycling into different bins', while a second they 'work unpaid for the DWP filling my forms, checking they get my post and correcting their errors when they deny my claim'.

Someone else said 'ordering your food on the app at a restaurant' could be added to the pile.

A few defended self-service checkouts, saying they were 'so convenient and quick', but pretty much everything else Les said was fair game.

Quite a few others added that they felt they were doing an extra job at the petrol station whenever they filled up on fuel.
