So so angry

So so many covid deaths are taking place amongst the underpaid and underappreciated Frontline workers like grocery store clerks, cashiers, stockers, and others. 11 an hour starting pay for deli, grocery, bakery, and customer service staff. We are over worked and under paid. Corporate has no clue nor do they care. Once a year they throw us a cook out to show their application and get rid of past date ground beef. In the meantime inflation skyrockets.

You may or may not agree with their cause, the people behind it, etc but one things for certain. A lot of big companies are losing a lot of big money. And THAT makes me happy.

Normally we bring the hammer down on the bosses. I think coworkers can be just as infuriating.

Asking about Wage?

I asked the company I work for why we get payed significantly less than other companies who offer the same thing. They have yet to email me back. All other questions get same day responses… I asked why our wages were significantly less. And if it was possible for any increases.

What defines a person?

It feels like everyone i know identifies themselves with what job they are working and I am the only one that sees more in people. When I meet new people or see people i havent seen in a while the first question is always “where do you work” or “what do you study”. The only thing they seem to be interested in is what job i have like its the only thing i am. It definetely seems to be the only thing they are. Everyone only talks about work and ask why I dont have a job yet or tell me I am lazy only because I want to do others thing with my live than having to obey some boss. I would like to be seen as the guy who makes music, cooks for everyone, grows their own food and enjoys nature and all the little pleasures life has…

College vs Trade School

Apparently, people have so many stories of going into debt in college and bad experience with textbooks and education materials handed to them. I was wondering if it would be better to go into trade school instead. I'm really afraid of potentially falling into student debt and having to pay them for the rest of my life. I have so many interests and jobs I want to choose from but I can't make up my mind. At the time of writing this I'm in my third year of high school and we're learning how to be a good worker to appeal to interviewer and employers and make resumes. Young people are pressured to make up their minds on what they want to do and whether they want to go to college or not. It's tiresome, to be honest. I come from a low income background.
