Maybe next life
Turns out what you wanted was financial stability and to not feel like you’d end up on the street. That doesn’t cancel out what should be a very basic expectation of baseline respect from employers and fair pay, though, so here we all are rightly pissed-off.
I was looking for a job and then I found a job, and heaven knows I’m miserable now!
Im looking now but I remember how when I had one I so did not and now that I don’t I so do.
Due to the increasingly high cost of living, more and more consider the alternative.
Hey, at least yer not part of the reserve army of labor!
been there.just have to find something outside of work to make it worth the effort
I am right now sitting in the foyer of my new job waiting for first day orientation to start and I am already cursing the fact that I had to get up so early and go across the entire city just to not die.
Under capitalism workers have to put up with jobs that makes them miserable. Otherwise they will become unemployed and even more miserable.
This is the best, most efficient and most rational economic system ever.
In most socialist societies working is also expected… I’d expect automatization to help with that in a true socialist society though. On the other hand, I am not sure that a society without work would function. But a 20h week would defintely be much preferable.
One would hope work would be significantly less miserable under socialism though
Yeah because even doing what you love is hell when you don’t make enough money to thrive or don’t have enough time to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Try contracting to get some variety
Try contracting in your spare time to get some variety.
Try contracting full time If you want to fast forward to that next life.
The only time I’ve been more miserable than when I was unemployed, was when I was employed.
