Antiwork

Our circumstance is one of the few hurting the many. You are the many, you can bring this entire apparatus to it's knees. Our labor generates EVERYTHING we see, it's about time we start acting like it.

My husband was just reminded of a time when his former employer's HR manager decided to patrol bathroom time. A note was attached to their checks, saying they need to take advantage of their break times to use the bathroom. Blah, blah, blah… The uproar was furious and immediate then spread like wildfire through the plant. As the men gathered together to discuss the new order, he overheard them saying: worth noting, 98% of these men are from southern Tennessee or northern Alabama. The “holler” accent is strong. “You cain't tell me when to shit, by gawd” “I'm old, I cain't be holding my ass lahk that! I ain't wearing no damn diapers to hold my shit til break!” “Break is when I eat my sammich. I ain't about to shit n sammich!” Guys were tag teaming shits throughout their shifts.

I have my bills and rent to pay. I don't have a second income and my current job underpays me. I've been here for almost five years and with my “promotion” I still don't even make the market rate for what my salary should be. So I have been looking for new jobs like crazy. Management here sucks for many reasons outside of the bad pay too. Almost everyone within my department has abruptly quit to leave instead of giving two weeks. And I will be doing the same. This place doesn't deserve one days notice let alone two fucking weeks. Once I find a new job that gives me an offer, I'll write my resignation letter. Send it to management and stop showing up. They can get fucked for how much they have fucked me over while being here. Edit: Looking around at my desk I also wouldn't miss…
