“Don’t let r/antiwork hear about this.”

That was a comment someone made on a post I shared talking about my job. That was three months ago. Having never heard of this sub, I was curious, and came here to check it out. And oh boy, it changed my life. The knowledge and perspective I've gained here – sometimes disheartening, sometimes hopeful – has changed the trajectory of my life. It also gave me the confidence to demand a significant raise at work – which I received. So today, I went back to that comment (figuring it was tongue in cheek) to thank them for introducing me to this sub. To be safe, I checked their post history. Turns out they hate this sub, and is a total capitalist wannabe, participating in “become a millionaire!” type subs. So congratulations unnamed poster. Your vocal disdain for the antiwork movement has only strengthened its numbers. And thank you to…

And thank you to all here for fighting the good fight.
