Antiwork

Corporations spend mega money working w IG and TikTok influencers to sell product and maintain public image. These brands choose these influencers because they know that’s their audience. We have massive opportunity to ask these influencers publicly via comments on their ads why they are supporting companies who are massively underpaying workers. You can find public personas who are doing ad partnerships for these corporations by looking up #[brand]partner. Walmart = #walmartpartner Kroger = #krogerpartner Trust me. I used to work in marketing and if we contribute massive negative sentiment via ads it’ll scare away influencers from working w those brands and it’ll make its way up to the C-Suite. If someone has a sample script we should use, share it below. Maybe something like: This company is a known wage thief, underpaying hundreds of workers. We call on you to stop supporting wage theft and only support companies that…

Title says it all. I'm a software dev, and I get reached out to constantly by recruiters and companies because I chose early on to specialize, and my focus has become the new hotness or whatever. Most of the jobs that I get reached out to about are total bullshit, don't actually exists, or are so comically bad I don't think that these companies are genuinely trying to find people to do work.

So I get on the phone with the CEO and the subject of work-life balance comes up and I tell him that I strongly believe in work life balance, that I'm not going to…

I don't know you. You don't know me, but I'm sure we can both agree that words can mean a lot of things to a lot of people in many different ways, even if they're the same words. For example, if you seriously ask someone what a friend is for, you'll get all sorts of answers specific to that person. So let's clear some things up, try to understand one another in this ever growing sub. What does the term “antiwork” mean to you? To me, I understand money is the root of a lot of things. “The grind”, “the game”, whatever ideology behind the hustle for more income means very little to me. It's not just simply the money, what does money entail? Everything, it's a means to an end whether it be a service, item, or the chance to live with freedom. Freedom to me is what's important,…

I work as a home manager of a group home for disabled individuals. Work has become something I literally dread if no for the individuals I care for whom I can honestly say I love like my own children. Needless to say we are understaffed and the house I manage has 8 boys all with varying degrees of handicaps. They have aever behaviors literally have had a bite taken out of my forearm and an individual eat it. That being said upper management is making us work alone. As salary I've been working that that home 24hrs straight another manager has worked 43 straight with no sleep and nobody would come to relieve him. I've begged for helped through text and email but get ignored, so we co tinie to work ALONE trying care for 8 ppl. People are getting hurt and we can't even provide adequate care. I recently…

I’m leaving the country on March 16 to take a career break. My company doesn’t like, and I don’t like them. I want to be able to collect unemployment while I travel. Should I ask for a rif (layoff) or should I try to get fired?
