Antiwork

I don’t want better hours or wage I just don’t want to work, never. No unions just unmediated hate

I'm a manager and recently had a meeting with the CEO. He starts off by showing me a video about navy seals and how they'd rather have an incompetent but trustworthy (bootlicker) team member than a competent one. He then proceeds to show me a plot chart with all of the management team members and where he thinks they fall on a scale of competence and trust. He has 3 people that no one in the organization trusts because they're incompetent as the people he thinks are the most competent and trustworthy. He follows that up by heavily implying that if I want further advancement in the company I need to be in his inner circle and I can achieve that by spending off work hours doing off work things with him.

The role is in the content marketing realm,…

I get it, yet I had the opportunity to meet someone who was intimately familiar with the current cocoa and coffee slave trade. No, they're not slaves in the sense that we used them in America, but they are highly underpaid workers doing a long, rigorous and sometimes quite dangerous job. Imagine doing your job without the promise of being paid on time? Without the promise of any safety inspections and no breaks? Imagine working 7 days a week and not allowed to leave because you won't be paid for your last month if you quit?
