Antiwork

It is animal cruelty.

Like the title says. What the hell are all these posts actually doing for us? Are the people of this community actually making a difference? Or will our voice not matter like so many other parts of the internet? How is this community different?

I’m curious how many hours people in r/antiwork work in a week. Do you get enough or not enough ? Do you make enough money to sustain yourself ? I would of done a pool but that’s not an option. I work 45-58 hours a week. I work a little too much. It pays the bills and a little more.

I work at a large tech company that once COVID hit, our entire workforce of 200 in our satellite office went WFH. However, myself and 2 others were designated as essential and were forced to work in the office 3-5 days a week since march 2020. We had to fight for mileage reimbursement for the first few months, as everyone else was WFH and were not incurring the travel expenses we were.

I need to bring it up to the managers next time I go to work (it’s possible my manager said it by mistake today, or I misunderstood instructions, since it was my first day, after all). I’ve always had big issues standing up to authority, so bringing it up terrifies me. But I know my…
