Antiwork

I flip burgers and sauce wings at my job. Yesterday was the super bowl. I had to cook and sauce over 400 wings in the first hour of work and then it didnt stop until I got off. After cooking hundreds upon hundreds of meals for people how can I not even get a free meal or even afford to have a warm meal myself? I have to go home and eat peanut butter on toast everday. Working here for the past 4 months in total I've only received $32 in tips. Honestly how much longer can society live like this? I know I'm not the only person living this shitty existence!

And if they decide to fire me, I’ll just go on unemployment for a while until I decide what I really want to do in life. I’m not jumping because despite our conditioning, corporate managers are people, not gods. Life is so much better when you realize that you are so much more than just a rich man’s toy.
