Antiwork

I don’t get paid shit and I have a life outside of work so fuck it Edit:thanks for the responses I needed this today a lot of shit on my mind

I am applying to fully remote jobs only for this reason. Disgusting.my boss doesn't even wash her hands after pooping no joke.

I’m currently a senior in high school that’s going to be graduating in 10 days or so, but I’m still not entirely sure if I want to go to college. I’m deathly afraid of the prospect of being swamped in student loan debt and not even having a decent job to show for it. I do not come from a privileged household in the slightest either so I’d be paying off my college tuition by myself without any help, aside from POSSIBLY a small scholarship. Majority of you on this subreddit have college degrees and a job, so I was wondering if you guys think your college degree was worth it and what you would do differently? I’d appreciate if you guys could lend me some of your wisdom!

I have a friend who works in management for a major international cruise company. She told me that based on what country you’re originally from, you get paid less. African, South East Asian workers get paid less than people from the US or Europeans. While she said she did her best to immediately hire people into slightly senior job grades to ensure people get paid the same – she’s only one person in a rotten industry, and only on one part of the ship ops (hospitality) So aside from destroying our oceans, cruise operators are conducting some of the biggest surplus value thievery on the planet and swimming in the misery of others. You can probably guess the operator. They’re the biggest in the world.

First of all, let’s be honest. It’s actually 8-5 (or 9-6) in today’s world. How are we supposed to be buy stuff, get things fixed, go to businesses for ANY reason, if we are supposed to work a 9-5? We’re all working during those times. How can anyone, other than the capitalist, elite, class, be expected to get things done if we’re working during business hours?

Today is my birthday but of course I have to work, a 12-hour shift, my workplace is 2 hours away from home and I really feel bad about having to work, anyway my boss find out it was my birthday and he send me home! He is going to pay me for the day anyway! I find a diamond as a boss. Sorry for the English, not my first language.

Meeting with the Boss on Friday said I don't participate in out of workgroup functions he asked why I said I have my own life. He gave me a verbal warning that if I don't participate in the next few group functions I may be let go. I giggled and said have you read my contract. Edit 1 My contract states I get a 70,000 payment upfront if Terminated for any reason my base salary is 140,000 for 2 years Im 5 months in already so if I get Let go I get next year off 1 year vacation
