All done by choice, not by force as you would seem to be for
Like i asked before, why are you living in this terrible capitalist country, go to russia, china, north korea or iran if those governmental systems are so great
Oh, you are one of those that enjoys the freedoms you have and sit back and bitch about them
And that’s why she’s working a dead end job while bitching about people with money.
Loser mentality.
Yeah. She was always complaining about something. Willing to accept less as long as it isn’t difficult.
I worked retail in undergrad.
I worked Walmart full time for 2 years while also taking 21 credit hours a semester. Then I worked at Sportsman’s Warehouse for 2 years doing the same. Threw boxes at UPS at night too.
I have ZERO sympathy for lazy ass people.
They’ll never experience the sense of accomplishment others do.
Just the discomfort of dissatisfaction and rationalization of smugness an compromise.
What always kills me is people thinking some form of governance or society is going to stop winners from being winners.
They WILL find a way to play, beat, and succeed in whatever system you put them in. It is in their nature.
Same with greed and nefariousness. You will NEVER stop it.
But the utmost respect for a diligent currency trader.
I just applied for 2 chief engineering positions. On one hand I can hardly believe I am qualified for these (imposter syndrome) but on the other I have been working towards this starting about my sophomore year in high school (17 years ago).
Got a masters while working full time and raising a family (and found someone else to pay for the degree). Strong work ethic quickly culls the herd.
Where there is a will - there is a way. Life was not meant to be easy with everything given to you. People have gotten so weak and cowardly these days it is disgusting. A little hard work won’t kill you and if it does - you were a weak link, bye.
He may be, which is why I asked him the question. Is that the rule or exception? My gut feeling is that it is the exception.
Being apathetic is understandable. Voting, on the federal level, changes nothing. Local politics can actually produce a 3rd party candidate. And you can actually talk to this person Typically they aren’t puppets of the corporate elite and can actually do some good. Voting local, worker Co-Ops and mutual aid are the ways to go.
more unionization equals out the power of the upper management who try and keep the workers under their thumb. Look at what is currently going on with the railroad workers. They want more time off as a demand in their contract. Currently I believe they only have 1 day of vacation time. The bosses always want more power and money. The greed never ends. Unions try and produce some equilibrium between the 2 classes. So the workers have some say in their work lace. Not your cartoon version of the unions.
Same goes for the Republican candidate. Either will be corporate puppets.
Mayor Pete sucks. His father, I believe, used to be a Marxist and a professor at Notre Dame. Pete has strayed so far from his father’s leanings. He was once for M4A then backtracked creating his own version. Trying to please the “healthcare” industry and appear progressive at the same time. He is nothing but a phony and a willing prostitute for the ruling class.
LMAO.
You have got to be kidding me. You had been better off saying nothing.
Why do you talk about unions when you know next to nothing about them. “1 day of vacation time”?? One day of vacation time every 2 weeks is more like the reality.
The people can start to make things knew for themselves outside of any system. Worker Co-ops are a great start. Mutual-aid is another way to follow and even participating in local politics. Any state that includes ballot initiatives should be taken advantage of. You can bypass all those criminal politicians and help work the will of the people. Case in point. Kansas a mostly red state had the anti-abortion issue come up. The residents struck it down with a B.I. They went past all of those asshole politicians and worked their desires into reality. Not relying on the puppets in high-level politics.
I meant to refer to their sick pay policy. This is the main reason for the potential strike depending on which rail company is spoken about. You DO NOT get paid sick leave until you’ve worked over 10 years, says a railroad worker who answered a question on Indeed.
Vacation time starts out at 2 weeks. Then, can move up from there, depending on how long you stayed employed with them.
Unions have inserted themselves as another layer of management. They also work hand in hand with the corporations that employ them to ensure production goals and deadlines are met at the expense of the workers they supposedly represent.
And support a strategy of working people literally to death in their last 10 years before retirement to reduce legacy costs/liability, telling people their last 5 “all goes to your pension” while working them for double shifts.
They dont get a fat pension. They get heart disease and die by 75.
You love the idea of limiting profits. You love the idea of centralized economic control. Both make it necessary to start controlling the size of the population(by eliminating the other guys, of course, whomever they may be).
That’s what a lot of dumbasses thought.
Total bullshit.
I know a lot of railroad guys. They make really good money with a lot of time off. Most of them have asses the size of a Volkswagen too.
I actually know someone with this mentality, a former friend of mine for 20 years, and there are good reasons I ended our friendship. He is the only lazy rich person I’ve met and thought he could be good at anything, not including physical endeavors. It’s just that he didn’t choose to do them or didn’t get around to them yet.
