Antiwork

First of all, think about that word. Anti work. The antithesis of work. The opposite of work. Workn't, if you will… a lot of people seem to think this sub is about a LOT of things, but rarely is “workn't” one of them. People who have never been here think we want to all be lazy and live of food stamps and welfare while other people work. Those people are delusional, and think that the concept of a “job” is vital for human development. I think it stems back to the puritans, with ideals like “idle hands are the devil's plaything” and “I'm dying not because of my lifestyle but demons have infected my blood!” … tragic. But more tragic than that are the other group of misconceivers. People have postulated for some time now that the greatest threat to any progressive movement is not and never will be those…

Does anyone else have a boss that does petty crap like this? My boss comes in nearly every day, at least once, and checks the drawers and if there's anything higher than a $5 bill he will swap it out for $5s and/or $1s. Our drops at the end of the night can be hundreds of dollars and I'm forced to count that crap out in $5s every time. I just want to toss it all around the store and walk out. On top of that, he loads the drawer up with coin rolls as if we are going to run out of change in a day. He also will break open change rolls if the change looks low, but the thing about dimes is that they're smaller so he will break a roll of dimes if there's $4 in the drawer, meaning I have to count around 90 damn…

Hey, all, long time reader, first time poster. Not 100% if this belongs here, if not, feel free to delete/re-post elsewhere. (TW: Mental Health/Suicide) So after finally being diagnosed with bi-polar 2/major depressive disorder/etc back in 2019, I quit my toxic job and got medicated. I worked a bit after, Amazon Delivery for a month, door to door insurance salesman for a month, but since March of 2020, I was unemployed until just last month. I quit that job two days ago. Despite the global pandemic, 2020 and 2021 were pretty decent years for me personally. I didn't have to work thanks to some savings, my mother and the unemployment coming in. Instead I worked on myself. I lost like 50 lbs, I stopped drinking booze (fell off the wagon for a bit, but I'm back on now!), I was going on walks, I started a youtube channel (which has…

Most brands are owned by one of a very few number of companies. They use people to work for one of their companies and everyone else has to pay in to something. So you see, they can never lose… Unless we stop working and buying into it, because it hasn't been making us happy working for them or buying into their BS.

Literally it was so busy yesterday at work I told her can we please put one extra person on Saturday for just 3-4 hours to help out because some of the kids I work with our in high school and I totally understand they want they’re lunch and stuff but it was none stop busy for 8 hours I texted her and she said well we can hire someone new and cut hours for “everyone” which means just me. I left her work to do when she comes in Monday because it was so busy I couldn’t do much of anything. She also said she drove by twice and it didn’t seem that busy I said why didn’t you stop by and help she just ignored me. I’m so close to quitting and walking out. I think she hates me because all the customers ask for me to help and…
