For all spies and shills lurking this sub: you have made it pointless to be alive.

If you are so incensed that “no one wants to work anymore”, I have bad news. It's your fault. You have priced us out of being happy. We will never own anything, we will never work enough, and our toil will never end until we are in the ground. If I have to choose between not working and having nothing or working and still having nothing, the choice is easy. Go fuck yourself.

Retail / consumer companies are complaining about a loss in revenue / sales… so… pay more?

I don't see where this misunderstanding comes from. if you want your people to spend more money. then they need money to spend. its hard for a lot of americans who are living pay-check to pay-check to be able to afford more consumer goods when they literally don't have the money to spend. How can companies complain about making less money when they provide poverty wages? now, i'm sure there is more to it but this must be a large part.

I called out from work today…

I was feeling like crap and went back and forth as to whether I should suck it up and go in, but I was sick and exhausted, so after careful contemplation, I called off. I even looked at the schedule and made sure that they were going to be fine before I pulled the trigger. I’m not used to taking care of myself or calling in. I went to work one time straight after being discharged from the hospital…But the last couple of years have shown me, that this industry will suck you dry if you let it…and it supports and encourages burnout even tho they’ve had every opportunity to change the way it operates. A co-worker of mine called me (I picked up like a dummy) not to check on me, but to chastise me for not coming in. They don’t do shit while I’m there, so she probably…

Dutch depiction of baboon, 1668 || “easily taught, not only to walk upright on its two hind legs, but also to carry a pail of water on its head, and other labour…Most of the natives firmly believe that these creatures will not speak, for fear they should be set to work.”

can I still get paid after I quit?

I used to work at mcdonlds like a year ago. They would overwork me as well as berate me. Store manager used to be condescending every chance she git. Example, i'd do something wrong and she'd berate me. I'd try and say something like “I didn't know I wasn't prop…” and she'd put her hand to my face and then walk away shaking her head. I'd get lunches super late from them. Store manager would talk shit about me to the other managers and laugh. They'd send me outside in 110°+ weather. To tell the cars to have their payment ready. Store manager who's 5ft prob shorter literally told another manager “He's a midget he's probably gonna get run over” and proceeded to laugh (i'm 5'7)Ik its short but wow. After constant berating and being overworked. I started to come in late and would be berated infront of other workers.…
