Antiwork

And we can argue the ones that are lied to the most, are the U.S. citizens. My Uncle, mid class family of 5 in a third world country of Latam, between 80 and 100 USD from his paycheck is used to pay health insurance, FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY. His wife has cancer, she needed some pills as a part of her treatment, those costed around 3 to 5k each, the insurance paid for every one of them, she only paid 12$ USD for the appointments. You may choose to not believe me. As kids we are told many times that we should go to the U.S. and work because a waiter there makes more than an engineer here, this sub showed me that only the lucky ones among the already lucky ones have a good life.

His wealth is so obscene. The cost compared to his net worth is $500,000,000/$118,000,000,000 = 0.004 or 0.4%. The median net worth of a family in the US is $121,700. So 0.4% of $121,700 is about $515.67. The $25,000,000 yearly cost to upkeep it is equivalent to about $25.78. But yet he’ll keep busting those unions! Billionaires are a policy failure. This level of wealth is disgusting and abhorrent. Tax the rich.

I feel drained and it's only my second week of work. 8:30-5, 30 minute commute each way. Getting up, getting me and my daughter ready. Work takes up about 11 hours of our day. I'm exhausted by the time I'm home, at a little after 5:30. Rush to get dinner ready and tidy up whatever I can with the house, eat, then her bedtime routine and she's asleep by 8. At this point I'm exhausted and can only hang out with my husband for about 30 minutes to an hour before heading to bed. Asleep by 10, 10:30 at the latest. Only to wake up and do it all over again. For 17/hr. Is this what life is? Rushing through quality time with my family, not being able to just unwind, having atleast one of the weekend days be dedicated to errands and getting the house straightened out and ready…

My boss(es) like to scream the moment they find something is not agreeable with, and it’s so funny to think that they once told me they hated people who screamed at them. Moreover, they keep piling me with work without streamlining the processes or telling me what’s the most urgent. I have to instead, find out for myself the most important items. They can and may predict the upcoming trends from the client in order to deal with things, but whats the point if the stuff today doesn’t get done? I cant wait to quit my job the moment I reach my own goals… in the meanwhile, I’d appreciate solutions to help fend against these menaces.

I have fucking had it. Work has always been severally difficult for me. Ever since I was a teenager working my high school jobs- I knew I wouldn't last in the every day world. I chased a dream and pursed music, deseperately hoping that it would take me away from the 9-5 lifestyle. Now I am 25 and I simply don't think I can do it anymore. I want to give up. It shoulsnt be this hard just to live. God knows I am trying. I recently moved across the country and am trying to apply everywhere. I've put in over 50 applications and haven't even gotten a call for an interview. I dropped out of college in 2018 and had a really hard time adjusting to the working world. I had about 10 different jobs from 2018-2019. Eventually, I snapped and got a tattoo on my face. The tattoo…

I am the part-time (hourly) in-house bookkeeper for a small outdoor living space contracting company for the past 6 months.  I accepted the job because it fit with my family needs and running my seasonal farming business.  The office manager, we'll call “Chel”, is a woman in her mid 50's and is by far the longest employed person at the company and most trusted by the owners. She's already had a history of absolute catiness since I started. These behaviors include passive aggressive comments, making snarky comments at me after I'm already helping her, bullying, intimidating, and ostracizing the operations manager (who was also a recent hire). Pressuring other's to be hateful towards the ops manager “Kat”.. Chel would get more aggressive with me for defending Kat, not joining in on talking behind her back, and for trying to include Kat in activities. Wow that list got so long! I've…
