Antiwork

With all the teachers already quitting their jobs I think the superintendent of the school district my mom teaches in just signed up for a lot of quitting a protest. Next year they’re adding a new set of rules to make sure all teachers are doing an equal amount of work by making them clock in and out. The principals now are the ones approving if teachers can take days off and write them up for unsatisfactory things pertaining to these new rules. As if they didn’t micromanage teachers enough

Hello Antiwork I have been actively reading up on posts in this subreddit and have seen many of your accomplishments. How corporations and leadership screws talent on daily basis. No one is your friend/family in work culture, sadly I learned that too late. Little bit about myself, (this is throwaway account so idc), started with att out of college was hired at 70k junior and slaved away to 110k for next 8yrs, finally got kicked due to 2020 WorkReform mandate Att Panned years ago (covid fucked that up royally) they let go of massive talent in many states right before covid hit, probably many of you aware of att layoffs of 2019. Anyway i took my severance and joined verizon for a while as a contractor and then 2021 i got an offer from well known company who used to make razr @105k but they said 95k with 10% annual…

idk why i have this little feeling of guilt but I shouldn't. i know many say to hell with the two week notice. i only hear this mostly in regards office and retail jobs but what about dishwashers? I can only imagine the bloodbath that was left behind! I gave notice two weeks ago (dishwasher gig), so they at least had some applications and try outs supposed to come in (they dont always show up) but I did not work this week due to my health. completely crashed. gave a heads up a few days in advance i wouldnt be in this work week and explained my health reasons. and I didn't get any answer back so I figured they were just done with me. part of my feels a bit guilty cause staff were chill and I probably left a bloodbath behind – with no dishwasher present – but…

It's maximizing profit because they know they can get away with it. Those that are supposed to protect us from such actions, you know those folks we elected, are profiting too. That is why they don't prevent it. Inflation is corporate code for taking advantage of current events to increase profits. The increase in the price of gas is exceeding the increase of the price of oil. We are once again victim to the power of those who control the means and ways. Until we realize and organize with the understanding that we are the ones that control the means and ways, we will continue to be subject to their control. We must come together with the knowledge of the value of our labor to leverage our power in the discussion. Without those of us who grind day in and day out they have no wealth, no power It is…

Not even from a human dignity standpoint think of the savings on infrastructure, transportation, the now unneeded office buildings could solve the housing crisis, and we could for once make a real environmental step. We all know they won't, it's bad for corporate interests, they don't actually give a fuck about us, change only happens when you fight for it.

To some of you, that's not a long time at a job. For me it's enough. I have worked hard for two and a half years, only to find that the new people are making right off the bat what I now make after two and a half years. I'm tired of being overlooked and underappreciated. I'm tired of being overworked and virtually unnoticed. They say they need me. They say I do a good job. Sure, what I don't important for where I work, but after three months with only one full weekend that I had to request off, I have had enough. I burned out weeks ago. I'm running on fumes now, if not completely empty. Job market looks like it has much greener grass than it used to. I think I'll try my luck there and see what I can do. Yeah, this sounds like whining. In…
