Work until you die — literally, which is what the meat packing plants did with their employees who caught, and died from COVID. They were then replaced with new employees who worked, caught COVID, and died. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/05/12/meatpackers-covid-deaths-trump-industry/
I did that.. I felt utterly miserable there. I know it is a dumb decision financially. I know I should just suck things up but it was awful.

They neglected to mention that $9,327,335 (over 11.5%) of that increase went to five people(an average raise of over 30%). That leaves $1,766 for each of the remaining 40,000 employees. Of course most of those employees didn’t see a dime because they don’t believe in increased pay just because you’ve given an extra year of your life to the company. The median employee pay went up almost 4% which is sadly much better than the last several years. Class warfare is real, but it’s not minimum wage earners vs people making 50-200k per year. Or at least it shouldn’t be. Someone making 200k has more in common with a part time dishwasher than a CEO at a large company. The lowest executive RAISE at my company last year was almost $500,000; do you think he could make it on $200k?
