Antiwork

Imagine the uproar when the people who inflate the price of insulin for diabetics, also raise the price of sunscreen. Seems like as the earth gets warmer there is opportunity for “market growth.” Seems like Tesla scared everyone into thinking we need electric vehicles for the climate. They don't seem so affordable. It's like they know the need is great, so they raise the price, so let sunscreen raise in price. Then maybe, because demographics of those affected by the sunscreen inflation, the masses will stop pretending capitalism is equitable. 🤷‍️

There are a hand full of people who aren't morning people, myself included, so it's really easy to be like 5 minutes late for various reasons. Anyone that shows up late basically has to do the walk of shame, which starts out the day shitty. These meetings are never fun and enthusiastic either because some people are pissed off at other people for being late but also most people are not the bright morning person types, or whatever. It's a real downer in the morning. No matter how hard some of us try, someone will always be late. I hate how this dumb meeting just makes everyone feel shitty from the get go. I don't understand how management thinks this is productive for the company. Like, start the meeting at 10am so that people can get a chance to wake up and get into a better mood and it would…

So I just graduated College & found litterally my dream job in forestery. I gave my two week's notice & was fired on the spot. How common is this these days? Feels like companies will do anything to save a dollar. I'm not even full time either, just weekends.
