Antiwork

So I've decided I've had enough of my current job. Management is horrible and getting through a shift is insane because they won't put more than 2 people on overnight . Now they are saying I have to follow all these new rules that aren't in the employee handbook( trust me I've looked). So as a big f*** you I sat down in front of the cameras and filled out an app to another job. 🤣 forget this place!

My dad always says “life is a marathon, not a sprint” but I just feel stuck on a never ending treadmill. The rat race is bull shit. The grind is bullshit. It’s all bullshit and I’m ready to die. As many others on this sub have said, therapy really is pointless. Your therapist can’t end capitalism. Your therapist can’t help with the fact that you have to earn a living the rest of your life.

But we’re reported by numerous people upwards of a dozen people for talking and doing nothing all day. This only happens when we work together, I actually tested something to see what would happen by doing little to no work all day on my ownand doing an…

So I have a relative who when discussing the refugees fleeing and coming into Poland etc, I talked about how tragic this all way and that I was glad that lots of aid was being sent. This relative opined that Ukraine refugees have a very strong work ethic unlike other refugees like from Africa and the middle eastern nations who sit around and “mooch” and that that is why this relative empathizes with Ukrainian refugees more than others. From what I can surmise from this relative's statement is that if you are not focused on immediately finding “hard work/employment” even after fleeing from an active war zone then you are not deserving of foreign aid and are a “lazy refugee”. It seems like a very miseducated and disrespectful thing to pin a “refugee's” value to society on whether they can put in hard work despite escaping a war zone. Does…
