I'm looking for jobs atm and I'm wondering what questions I should ask during a potential interview.
Capitalism leads to exploitation of the working class and this sub stands against that exploitation. Therefore, it would reasonably follow that this sub is anti-capitalism. That’s all fine and dandy, but there is a very loud minority of ideologues here that will accuse anyone that doesn’t hold their exact views of supporting capitalism/neoliberalism. One of the worst examples I continuously see is hostility towards people that support socdem or democratic socialist policies but not a violent overthrow of the US government. People that support free healthcare, tuition free public college, high minimum wage, a wealth tax, universal unions, paid parental leave, and green energy investments. This is very much the Bernie Sanders slate of pro-worker policies. And yet if you support these a loud group of anarcho communists will attack you for supporting and saving capitalism because measures that help the workers “make capitalism more palatable” or some shit like…
Infuriating. Found this on r/mapporn
I’m not an English scholar – I was always good at maths and bad at English at school. But I have read these dystopian books where a big government or corporation or whatever controls society. I’ve been reading posts on antiwork for a while, and I’m almost excited to start to rebel against the system. I’m in Europe, so it’s not the same as you guys in the US, but – I still strongly feel that there shouldn’t be people driving new range rovers around when others have to choose between heating and eating. So I mean – I’m starting small by telling someone applying for a job where I work my salary, so they know what to start with when negotiating, but I’ll try and do more.
Who could have seen this coming? /s SOURCE: https://www.businessinsider.com/south-carolina-subway-burger-king-child-labor-laws-popeyes-frodos-2022-2
Memo from pet hospital manager
Background: constantly exploited at my salon & didnt want to deal with a rude, rich. I don’t get paid to sit around & overall just hate my job. Clients are rich, well off Karens who’s trust fund kids cause me anxiety and are just disrespectful to service providers. I got the vibe from this trust fund college girl that whatever I’d do on her she’d hate- she came in saying everyone who does her hair she always hates it. Not even letting me talk although she had booked a consultation. So I had my boyfriend call in acting as my landlord saying I had a pipe leak. He is always telling me this place doesn’t serve me right & that doing this one time will show the true colors of the client & my bosses. My boss didn’t deliver my message with urgency like expected and the client had the…
So I’m currently just a server at a small restaurant owned by a couple of NBA players while I finish my bachelors degree. I’ve noticed over the last year of me working there that I’m typically the only person who speaks out against mistreatment or has the balls to tell a manager that what they are doing is wrong. While I have never done or said anything to warrant firing me, I have gotten on their bad side because I don’t let them walk all over me or talk to me like an idiot. I’ve advocated for my coworkers many times as well when they tried to make them pay for a tables entire tab when they dined and dashed (illegal) or clocked them out for a break they did not take (wage theft). When one of my managers, who is totally moronic and can’t handle an ounce of stress…
