Antiwork

This is our whole life? 5 days a week of tedious work until we are geriatric and broken? work dinner chores tv repeat until 65? How is anyone ok with this depressing and monotonous life of wage slavery? The only day I actually enjoy of my one and only life is Saturday. I have to go to the grocery store and do other life chores on Sunday. I get one day a week where I'm not miserably working. ​ The fact that people see nothing wrong with capitalism is shocking to me. My mom has sat behind the same desk for 20 years and loves her life. All while making a ridiculous low wage. ​ I honestly wish I was a right wing 'pro work' hogman they seem pretty happy to be slaves.

First, I'm a 60 year old woman. I used to work at a burger place for $12/hr, 35hrs/wk. I quit 2 months ago to work at an overnight job at a chicken processing plant, $17.50/hr, 40+hours per week. The other day I went in to my old job for a burger, and everyone was telling me how short staffed they were and could use some help. I told them I was free Friday and Saturday nights for a few hours. They were thrilled. I started back tonight. I told everyone that I might be slow because I'd been gone for two months. We got really busy and I asked a coworker to cut me some avocados, and he went off on me. Yelling, telling me that other people had stuff to do and that I could cut avocados, too. This is true. But, I had 15 burger sets in front…

All I see is the normal “We need experience from you so that you can get experience from us, also we'll pay you in experience. C'mon bro, think of the networking possibilities!” ​ Edit: Also yes, this is unpaid as well making it 10x worse.
