Antiwork

I've enjoyed lurking on this sub through different accounts on reddit. It used to be where anti-establishment voices could coalesce and ideate, I loved watching it happen. With tenets immediately appealing to the average worker, this sub gained popularity, and with it I fully expected the signal-to-noise ratio to diminish, and it has. I don't think it's happened any faster than what I expected or any slower. But regardless of route to its current state, it's gotten too noisy and echo-ey in here, so I'm ducking out. Good luck on getting more coordinated as the movement grows, it's not a new challenge, but a challenge nevertheless.

If these stupid companies really want to hire me…then text or email me. I do NOT want to talk on the phone. Sorry not sorry ️

The post defending the Fox News interview is still the most absurd post on this forum….but I’ll be damned if the one about being forced to dye her hair didn’t make a legit run at it. Aren’t there already many subreddits for fan fiction? Let me check my ham-handed silly bingo card, while re-reading the “dye hair” post: Unavoidable condition: CHECK *BONUS: Physical trait Shitty, Incompetent, Undeserving Boss: CHECK *BONUS: Trust-fund bro *DOUBLE BONUS: Narcissist, Grotesquely Self-entitled Universal, automatic and unquestionably wrong situation / allegation: CHECK *BONUS: Misogyny, sexism, ageism Over-explaining things to make oddities “fit”: CHECK Poses painfully obvious and unmistakably rhetorical softball question as being sincere: CHECK I want to quit – and can – but haven’t (so as to further inspire comments, as if the fake situation still remains unresolved): CHECK *BONUS: Lawyer, HR, BCC’D, lawsuit I’m still working here, with these imagined monsters, so as to…

Just wanted to get some opinions on this one. I am working my first job out of college, in IT. I like the job but there are some major issues with the company I am working for. Chaos and being disorganized is the main thing. Wanted to get some opinions on quiting a job before you have another job lined up. My parents tell me it's just something you never do. For me I feel kind of burnt out because of the chaos of my current job and wouldn't mind a month off to clear my head and focus on finding a really good company to work for. Let me know what you all think!

Then find you a good one and don’t settle! Been wanting to post this for a while but now finally am ready to share some thoughts [burner account]. Background: me, fairly intelligent, hard working, some college (basically bachelor level w/o the paper), passionate person who really tries to do their best each day. Worked for 7 years(!) for a company that would absolutely never let anyone advance. It was flexible so whatever, it worked at the time. Quit after an ex-employee tried to run me over in the parking lot (story for another time) Took another job that seemed great at first but soon came to find that every single day I pulled into that parking lot, I’d rather just die right then and there. Toxic, terrible mission, stale, depressing environment. After a year of that depressing job, my partner and I couldn’t take it anymore, dropped everything and up…
