“Because no one wants to work..”

I went to a mechanic shop to get my oil changed the other day. The owner greeted me by saying “We are behind schedule” “Because no one wants to work..” Then he looks at me like I will return his point by bashing the “non workers”. Every customer that walked thru the door same thing- “we are behind schedule” “Because no one wants to work..”. With every other person making comments on “welfare” “young people” “no work ethic” I am getting sick of the whole “no one wants to work” excuse/bashing. If you can't pay a living wage you do not have a real business.

UPDATE I’m about to ask for a raise

Here's the original post I made https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/comments/tyku59/i_am_about_to_ask_for_a_raise/ Idk if anyone really cares for an update but I got my raise! My manager even actually got me more than I asked him for!!! I mentioned last time that raises don't go out till mid year, but my manager found a way around that. He had me apply for my new PROMOTED AND SALARIED position and then just had HR approve it so we didn't have to wait. Effective next Monday I will be getting roughly a 27% raise, and I will no longer be hourly. I'm honestly in shock right now. My manager is such a kind guy, and I really only barely expected to get what I asked for (if not less). But this man fought for an extra 5k on top of what I asked for. AND he informed me that I am definitely still eligible for the yearly…

Please stop calling for a general strike.

Where is the organization to support the striking workers? What exactly do you want to achieve? How would it work logistically? Just constantly saying we need to do a general strike without Any of the details worked out is getting us nowhere.

They are still having people work overtime. I have been working here for a few weeks, each week 1-3 people quit, got fired, or retired. Bosses complain that “nobody wants to work” while running their few employees into the ground… it’s insane.
