Antiwork

I just realised that certain type of people like to claim that nobody wants to work anymore and those people have become very lazy due to the government hand outs. Then I remembered that the president that decided on giving people these hand outs put in a lot of effort to get his name on those checks. I suggest we start referring to these government hand outs as “Trumps hand outs” why nobody wants to work anymore and made them very lazy. Lets see how these typical people will handle those facts!

I work at a restaurant. Your run of the mill spot that doesn’t care about it’s employees, I won’t bore you with the details. I need a sat & sun off to attend a wedding, and just wondered if y’all had a good way of wording it that was nice, but also, this isn’t a request, I’m going type thing. I’m really trying to not let jobs (especially ones that don’t give a crap about me) keep me from taking time off this year. Any help is appreciated!

It's our duty to WFH if we can, and any employer or President who disagrees must be ignored. Defending criminal states is more important.

I work as a healthcare professional. Having someone be in my role at all times is necessary to the function of the company. I’m the only person working in my area at the company. I had to give four weeks notice to resign, and am now going into my last two weeks. My boss is now on holidays until I leave, I won’t see him again. He didn’t say goodbye or acknowledge the situation when I last saw him. There’s a multitude of reasons I’m leaving but conveniently need to move interstate so gave that as my reason. One of my coworkers asked when I move, which is 3 weeks after my notice period ends. She’s gone around and told everyone that that’s when I finish working there, so apparently everyone except for my boss thinks I’ll be there for 3 more weeks. Boss even joked earlier this week about…

I work at a small/medium restaurant chain in Spain which is doing pretty good these years. The company has opened places in a couple cities and it is having great benefits. We've being working exclusevily with Uber Eats as our delivery system and now, all of a suden without the slightest warning or announcement, we started with another delivery company. This means we are working with two delivery systems plus the people who come to the restaurant. My rant comes because the company was doing so well with just Uber that half of the restaurants got were able to sustain themselves with just that so it was not because of losses or something. It was just to make more money. Now, this choice made by the directives has doubled if not tripled our workload. Have your salaries went up? Because mine has certainly kept the same having to work way…

Hey everyone, I remember a while back someone posted a way to force a company to show its notes/reasons/conversations on you from the hiring phase. Does anyone remember that law/policy/post? Thanks!

That’s how much land could be given to every single US citizen while allowing the government to keep its 640 million acres of land. Oh yeah I almost forgot, it also leaves the small sum of 1.5 BILLION acres for anything else anyone could possibly want. To give you a sense of scale: 1.5 billion acres is 1.85 times INDIA’s total area. India is the seventh largest country in the entire world. It would only take 12% of the land in this country to give each and every individual 39476.25 square feet of their very own land. Assuming each person is also given 200 square feet of living space at the average finished cost of $184/sqft, it would cost the government about $12 trillion dollars to house everyone in brand new construction. HOUSES. Not apartments, HOUSES. Sounds like a lot of money though, right? Well, turns out if the government…

Lying flat is a very simple concept. All it is, in a nutshell, is refusing to participate more than you absolutely have to. It's a form of protest. What it looks like is building yourself a little emergency fund and then cutting your hours at work down to the bare minimum that you need to maintain yourself. So working just enough to eat, have shelter, and all of your necessities. You won't really be buying much and you won't really be going out on the town much, but it sends a message if enough people do it. It's a way of protesting a system. The reality is that we all have to work right now because the system won't allow us not to. That sucks. So we can protest it by lying flat and refusing to participate in this shitty system (shystem!) more than we have to. This puts financial…
