Antiwork

“How to be an anti-capitalist in thr 21st century” By Erik Olin Wright I don't know if anyone on here has heard of his work (maybe I'm late to the party), but basically he updated a lot of Marx's ideas and adapted them to modern times. He basically says for democratic socialism to work, we must have: 1) Unconditional Basic Income. 2) Public programs that facilitate the conversion of capitalist firms to employee-owned. 3)Specialized public credit institutions that support co-ops. 4) Publicly supported co-op development initiatives. 5) Training programs for how to organize and operate co-ops. Honestly I can't do the book justice and would recommend people read it. I got it at my local library, but if you have time it's a good read for how to fix our shitty boss issue.

Today he asked me about my relationship my 7-year relationship to tell me that I shouldn't trust men easily and I should make sure my bf isn't playing me mind you I barely bring him up and only positively and we are happy together so this was just his dumbass assumption AGAIN TRYING TO FAKE A REASON FOR ME BEING UNHAPPY AND STRESSED BECAUSE OF HIM. Check my previous post this guy hired me for marketing but gives me non-marketing tasks like sales associate tasks and asked me if I have ADHD cause I can't finish and focus on everything. I am in Texas where do I report I want him to learn his lesson and I feel like I deserve something out of this after all this bullshit

Hello I Am A 24 Year Old Line Cook For Barrio Tacos In Ohio & I Mostly Work Closing Shifts My Manager Clocks Us Out /Changes Our Time Every Night Especially When We Take Too Long Closing Is This Illegal??? Example : My Schedule Says 6:00pm – 12:00am But Say If I Come At Like 5:41pm (They Edit The Time To Look Like This ) 4:41pm – 11:45pm

I worked accounts receivable and felt compelled to become angry with customers who were delinquent. I didn't give a shit if they paid or not. Didn't affect me. After calling them I felt conflicted because the frustration I exhibited with them was fake. When a co-worker doesn't get me an important report. I feel the need to express how upset I am with them to my manager/coworkers. I actually don't give a shit about the report. I feel compelled to behave in ways I otherwise wouldn't outside of work because I need to ensure that my job security is solid. I don't actually care about the actual work. It's not my company. I think there's a misconception that in order to appear like you care, you have to get angry. My work ethic doesn't work like that. I feel foreign. How do companies promote this sort of culture? The ones…

Should I have brought it up in the interview? Sure, but I was desperate for a job. I assumed, and maybe it made an ass of me, that it would be (an unacceptable!) 2 weeks! Imagine my surprise when they said “no PTO for the first year”. At least you get to after your first year, right? Yeah, 1 week after that! WOOOoooo. I need to get a new job asap… but man, I don't know how to make a living freelancing online. I just don't have the skills yet…
