Antiwork

It is my desire to make money. It is my desire to have a steady income of money. It is my desire to have a source of money. I do not know what steps that I should take. I do not know if I should get in a job that is not good . I do not know if I should get a job at a random whim. I do not necessarily need to survive off of money because of the food pantries and the church is giving out food every day. one or two days out of the week I may not get that much food but it’s still enough to keep me fed for now I want money I want an apartment I want a car or some mode of transportation, I want to get off the streets but everyone has their own thing going for them that…

I've been a funeral director for 15 years at an 8 million dollar family owned firm. I love my job, but the workload is crippling to me and my fellow coworkers who can't slow down because the people that suffer are the families we serve. The chapel I work at is the busiest one we have in the country. So we just keep chugging along because we care too much. At one point during the height of covid families had to wait at least a week to make arrangements and at least another week to have their services. Try telling a Karen only 10 people can be here for her moms funeral when she has 8 siblings. It was soul crushing to get yelled at all the time for things that were not up to us like mask mandates and such. We all suffer from anxiety and depression. Most of…

I made a meme/video about how companies like Family Dollar and Dollar General exploit workers by making more money from violating labor laws than they do from obeying them… ​ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EsFVJVpWCU ​ Sound quality on it may be a bit shit, but this video is criminally under viewed and I wanted some feedback. https://preview.redd.it/o8h6jpmn7gv91.jpg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b8304f4ced5d3cf948cab5045d73c2bc69d45545

I live in the UK, and they have all these stupid one lane roads here (that are two ways) and I'm driving today on a bunch of them and they are all national speed limit roads (60mph) and I'm thinking to myself: “this is so much more dangerous to drive 60 on than driving 11mph over speed limit on the highway.” “Two people from opposite directions driving 60 would just smash into each other in the worst possible way because it's a single lane two way road.” And I realise, speed limits are not about safety, they are about tax. It only matters to the gov to enforce and care about setting speed limits on roads well travelled so they can get their money from “offenders.” But they couldn't care less about actual safety on shitty roads less travelled. I can imagine someone In some catered board meeting saying “why…

It’s crazy that a lot of the older generations keep saying we (millenials) are lazy, or people in general don’t want to work. It made me(24f) come to a realization. I don’t think it’s that we don’t want to work. Because I admit, as far as work, this job I’m at now I’m always 5-30 mins late. I’m honestly just not a morning person. At the same time though, I’m the one who shows up late to work and yet STILL finishes my work hours before we are off and helps out with THEIR work. I constantly hear all my coworkers (35s-40s) in the same/ if not similar position as me complain about how they have sooo much work to do and how people that are always late/not show up get rewarded. In my head I’m thinking well if maybe they didn’t take a thousand personal/smoke breaks they wouldn’t always…

Just got this ad. Is that supposed to appeal to people who are literally driving uber to pay for each thing that comes up in their daily life? Presumably no money in the bank account? What a cursed ass existence ffs

Where I live, Canada, our government is relaxing restrictions on foreign workers to ease our labour shortage. I want to know peoples thoughts on easing restrictions. Do you think this is a way for employers to avoid increasing workers conditions to stay rich? Or do you agree that giving foreign workers more employment opportunities is good, especially while we have so many Ukrainian refugees. I think that giving foreign workers jobs, especially since they tend to be very hard dedicated workers is a good thing that should improve the work force. I’m only 15 so I don’t understand everything but I’m trying to learn what I can since I want to get a part time job for some play money
