Month: August 2022

Living under capitalism is a horrible life. Five days a week of mind numbing toil for comically rich men has driven me insane. There is no finale, no one is coming to save us. We will literally work until our geriatric bodies fail. I even make a decent amount of money. When can I spend it? I’m either exhausted from working, doing chores around the house, or resting from my toil. Work. Chores. Dinner. Maybe an hour of free time per day. Repeat until death. A true boring dystopia. Add in the fact that most people live in abject poverty and you realize we are all little more than slaves. We are slaves who get to pick our master. We earn slave tokens that can be spent at Amazon or Walmart. How doe people cope with this life? How do people just accept our wage slavery?

Had i remained at my old job my vacation day was denied I've taken every August 1st off because its my birthday. Now if you're not a moron you understand that birthdays are on a different day every year today its on a Monday. My last boss refused to let people take Mondays off because that was the day where we got caught up from all the calls from the weekend. Lol get fucked if I ask for a day off a year ahead of time its not a request im simply not coming. I don't care if you can accommodate it or not.

Was on vacation a few weeks ago and ended up in a small group with some strangers. Sparked up conversation and mentioned where I live, they knew the area. One of the men asked “what do you do?” I started listing off my hobbies and interests, he looks at me like I'm an idiot and sort of condescendingly restates “No, what do you do for work?” I do my best to have my brain not be at work when I'm not working. I'm not my job, my job is just a small part of me.

Or maybe I just never developed that kind of sentiment from it because abusing your employees can get you into serious trouble in Australia because of all the employee protection laws in place. Hang in there, dear sufferers of burnout and abuse, my heart’s with you all
