I work in a conservative hellhole. I still try to treat my coworkers right, because of my socialist ethics but it can be hard when they go on conservative rants in front of my openly queer self
Sort of sometimes, but everybody gotta eat and everyone needs to do their part or we will be back to hunting and farming.

Meh. Work isn’t for fulfillment. Work is just there so I can eat, pay bills, and fund my hobbies.
It’s more that society should have asked nicely instead of trying to manipulate me into it with years of brainwashing and coercive economics, so I made it a priority to participate as little as possible and that’s on them. Want a functional system, treat people with respect.
100%, every day.
I usually felt this way about the Christian families with lots of children who would come into the restaurant after church and treat everyone rudely and make a huge mess. They did it every Sunday, and it never changed over a period of years. I know they were probably just exhausted and miserable themselves, but lots of exhausted and miserable people out there aren’t so entitled, inconsiderate, and rude to workers. Still, it didn’t make me feel like not working, I just didn’t want to serve those people.

Shovel 14 tons what do ya get? Another day older and deeper in debt. St. Peter don’t you call cuz I anit home. I owe my soul to the company store.
Work has too many variables that make it shitty to think the grass is greener just by changing the location you work in. I’ve switched industries drastically a couple times and returned to some and feel strongly that people of the similar flock together. So even if you changed the people you work for or with by mowing towns, but dont change careers, it’s likely your next job will have the same personality types as the people you currently hate working for.

🤣 been a while since I’ve heard the song.
Me.
My work barely overlaps with peoples’ attitudes, but I wouldn’t say I don’t have my own reaction to this observation.
Yes but the people you work for probably feel like that too.
Yeah pretty often. It goes even further, as in, I don’t want to participate in society, or forced capitalism, in general. I’m aware I’m part of it but I always tried to not be a part of that shitty system. I’m not buying a house, no car, no gas to buy, no superior education, no certifications or high paying job. I just wasted my “potential” and will continue to do so.
To me it looks like a big chuck of people have some sort of Stockholm syndrome towards capitalism and how our society makes us think this is some sort of meritocracy.
That being said, my behaviour can also be linked to my spicy brain. I’m probably neurodivergent but the health system where I live doesn’t help adults with that.
In short, I’m disappointed by what I see around me and I don’t want to join the game. I don’t want to join the competition of poors against poors
Does anyone not?
