“Nobody wants to work anymore, so I work for free”

Had a disappointing conversation with a coworker this morning. Me: Good morning how are you? Were you off for the long weekend? Coworker: No, I worked all three days. For free. Me (confused): Why would you do that? CW: Because they asked me to. We’ve been short staffed for two years and they haven’t hired anyone. Me: Maybe they would try harder to find someone if you didn’t work for free? Why don’t they raise the salaries and hire people? CW: Because no one wants to work anymore. Literally no one wants to work anymore! More capitalist / right wing brainwashing. Employers don’t even need to exploit workers, they exploit themselves! Just sad to see.
