Gets even worse when you have mouths to feed. It’s not just you striking or quitting, it’s them too. But then, it’s also them being impacted indirectly by stress, lack of fair wages and lack of safe working conditions. Give your workers what they need and their families benefit too.
“Give your workers what they need and their families benefit too.”
This implies that they care about what your family or what you need. Every business exists for the sole purpose of extracting money from something, they do EVERYTHING in their power to pay you the LEAST amount possible. All they want are meat machines that can make decisions, press the correct buttons, lift the heavy thing and listen to commands all as cheaply as possible.
It’s pretty bad where I work, if you don’t fight for a raise you never get one. I have coworkers who have a hard time speaking up (some don’t even speak fluent English) and they’ve never gotten a raise in the 6 years I’ve known them because they never ask and the boss is more than happy to not have to spend a single dime more.
Being uneducated doesn’t help either, I’m considered as valuable as the decayed dog droppings Mr.Dogwalker never picked up. Some might even argue the droppings are actually contributing resources back to the environment which is more valuable than my uneducated ass. But hey, my boss owns a helicopter so that’s nice.
Education doesn’t necessarily help. Being overeducated is a liability.
I was complaining about my job once and a Redditor told me to just find a better job. Why don’t I strap on my job helmet and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into Jobland where jobs grow on jobbies!
I dont really feel like these are the only options, though. Why can’t you look for another job you’d enjoy more while still working at the job you hate?
The meme’s message is not incompatible with your suggestion.
Well, the message as I interpreted it is that you either have to:
a) keep working at the job you hate, or b) experience homelessness
What am I missing? Granted, I slept very badly so its entirely possible that I may have morning dumb dumb brain.
Yes, yes you have to do exactly as the meme says, there is no room for a little humor in misery.
Well sarcasm is the lowest form of humor, so forgive me if I dont consider you an expert on what’s funny
And opinions are like kittens; people are always giving them away for free.
You know we’re literally posting in the comment section of a discussion platform, right? Writing your opinion is kind of the whole point…
