Antiwork

I just realized I’ve been brainwashed by my company. Now I don’t care anymore.

My company has this policy where if you call out more than 5 times in a year you get written up. (And yes, this policy remained the same during the height of Covid.) I think I might be at five times. I was frantically scrolling through my past schedules, trying to count up my call outs, when I realized something–the company brainwashed me into caring. It's not like they pay me when I'm not there, so why should I give a single shit? It's also a terrible company to work for in the first place. I will enjoy my sick day in peace, without worrying about getting “written up” while the corporate office enjoys the fruits of my labor.
