Antiwork

I fucked up when I was 18 and got charged with attempted armed robbery. I’m 24 now and I can find any job that’s willing to pay me aleast 17 an hour. I used to be a huge patriot for America but now I want to move to Spain or Germany. This country has gone to shit. You have to become a slave to your employer and job to keep a roof over your head and keep your family fed. I want to prioritize my family not my job.

context: my little brother, tried to pull the: ” your lazy because you accept welfare money from the government, and that I needed to grow up” card. The following, are screengrabs for what took me forever (years) to put into words. Honestly not sure if this falls under antiwork like the usual posts I see in here, but I thought it was still relevant, sorry if not.. I shoulda picked something better to post https://preview.redd.it/j6csp1ryd0i81.png?width=522&format=png&auto=webp&s=fc16f774b33f0b47c903315a62f412e17c31a3ac https://preview.redd.it/45cpzql5e0i81.png?width=524&format=png&auto=webp&s=c46c0a9ded198b32247307be2c16e4445a5cde05

I came across this sub recently and found it intriguing. If you feel comfortable would you be able to tell me what your do for a living why you choose the career path and why/how you became to be anti work.

If someone says, “The Customer Is Always Right!”, ask if they've ever worked at a suicide prevention center. Yeah, that's bleak and tasteless and you don't need to comment to tell me that.

This in my opinion is the best Quitting story I have witnessed…. So I was Previously working at a major Research University, in the animal care department… we were in charge of maintaining the health and wellbeing of the animals in our facilities ( Monkeys and mice) within guidelines set by the Federal Government. When this happened (July 2019) we were severely short staffed ( 9 people short)…… It was my first week on the job and I realized that this was going to be the type of place where no matter how hard you worked it was not going to be appreciated. Ok here's the best part…. There was a super old dude been working there for over 30+ years….. got really upset because HR sent a 3 new hires to a different Animal facility (Rabbits and fish) that was not as understaffed…. SO during Lunch he went out…
