Category: Antiwork

My husband owns a semi truck, and he has a contract for delivering to stores out of a nearby distribution center. It's a lot for him to unload by himself (40,000 pounds) so I made a job post for him on indeed, for somebody to ride along and help unload. We were honest in the post about the job, and transparent about the wage and hours ($150 per day which is pretty decent for manual labor in our area). Pay every day. We got a ton of applications. my phone was ringing off the hook. Hired a guy and he shows up on time even though the truck leaves early in the AM. Works hard, nice guy, eager to learn about the business. this 'labor shortage' is a bunch of bullshit!! those 'nobody wants to work' signs should say 'nobody wants to pay' Keep holding out!! don't take low wages!!…

I'm 46 and waited tables from 1999 – 2005. I walked out with well over $100.00 dollars cash per night. I would work 15 hours and have my 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX (turbo charged all wheel drive) payment. Minimum wage was $5.25. I was making seven times per hour what fast food workers were making. I could go back to a fine dining establishment and make 20% gratuity. A chick I know makes close to $2000.00/week. We live in SC, there was no pandemic here. Anyway, I haven't worked since 2005. How's that for antiwork?

Imagine being lazy. That fox news interview sure did a number on this sub. Reminds me of the animemes situation a couple of years ago.
