Antiwork

My gf works for a small clothing chain store and has accepted a new job. Her manager is on vacation right now so corporate came to visit today and she told them she was quiting and they said we need you so we don't accept.

I’ve been reading anti work for a while and feel I want to add my 2 cents (probably what my opinion is worth!!) The issues being brought up seem to be the following; I got a degree in; political science, English, history etc. my degree only gets me entry level positions. No shit, your degree was for a passion, not a profession, nothing wrong with that but understand that’s what it is. The career I trained for dosnt pay well; example teaching. FYI teaching has never paid well, when my mom was a teacher 40 years ago the pay sucked, it sucks now, you knew what the pay was prior to becoming a teacher, so if that’s an issue why did you choose that profession?? Current world is much worse than previous generations, housing costs, lack of pay, tuition costs, no pensions. This one sucks, it really does. Try and…
