Putting in my notice on Friday

For some of you who may have seen my posts already and those who havent, ive been at my first full time job at hospital monopoly chain for about 3 months now and I just can't take it anymore. I hate the hours and the corporate kissasry that goes on, but the worst thing is my manager just harasses me constantly and doesn't leave me alone.

There has always been a single pie, increasing the supply of currency just makes your slice of the pie worth less. inflation sounds too complicated, but maybe people can understand it better if we start calling “inflation”, what it actually is “currency creation”, (AKA a way to subtly steal a compounding percentage of the value of your time every year without you noticing and being too upset about it.) Prices aren't going up, the value of your wages and your time are going down.

For a mainstream business mag, this is a sick burn on a CEO

The closing: Should Owen ultimately decide to cancel her staff’s bonuses for the year that is ending, the question then may be whether her championing workplace equity extends to voluntarily forfeiting her own bonus in solidarity with her employees. In the video, the MillerKnoll CEO did urge her workforce to “lead by example.”
