If You Want Change To Happen From This Subreddit, You Have To Change It’s Name.

Ever since the interview gone to hell a few weeks ago, I thought about the nature of this subreddit as it pertains to the public eye. The public is not going to take a group of people seriously who define their goal in life as “not wanting to work”. As great as it sounds it will never gain mainstream momentum. I think everyone here does want to work including myself, but people want to get paid a living wage.

Non profit or food service?

Context, I used to work in non profit. Now I’ve spent some time in for profit and the marketing world as a project manager. It’s a steady pay, but I don’t care for the work. I’ve been PT as a barista and genuinely enjoy the atmosphere. Although it’s stressful it’s more creative and hands on for me. I’m torn between a non profit opportunity again, and this new barista/cafe asst. manager role.
