Antiwork

So, just last week I lost my job working in SEO. It was painful and demoralizing, and I've come away with a powerful distaste for the corporate environment. But, I'm more empowered than ever to pursue my passion of writing fiction and live a fulfilling life.

And the moment you screw up, you get scrutinized and ridiculed to no end. Meanwhile, you get to watch those around you doing less work, but still getting the same pay. This to me feels like a form of exploitation, and I don't understand how companies can do this . It is extremely frustrating because it is the definition of performance punishment, this just discourages people from working hard, and become complacent . I myself have been through this in the last 3 jobs that I had, and I just felt so drained and jaded to the point where now I just don't want…
