Remember:
If you saw someone living a decent life while “working” a bullshit job, no you didn’t!
Yeah no. If I’m starving working 50 hours/week I’m gonna be pretty fuckin pissed seeing someone do fuck all for more.
I’m not saying I’m gonna take it out on them but if they ever complain about work I’ll eviscerate them.
It’s kind of a crab bucket mentality. Virtually anyone any of us have ever seen, who had “jobs” of some sort, were working class, and not mill/billionaire class. We all have more in common with each other than with the one percent, and if someone I know has figured out a way to claw a little bit back, then more power to them so long as they’re not hurting someone. Oh, boo fucking hoo, they figured out a way to scam a livable wage out of a Fortune 500 company! I say, good for them! We should all be so lucky.
Instead of getting mad af someone else’s begter paying job, maybe work to improve your own?
And this isn’t always possible. In fact it commonly isn’t. I do agree the people who don’t do anything and complain is stupid but many jobs don’t have any opportunity for more and you become stuck.
Instead of getting mad at a fellow worker for having a job that doesn’t exploit them, why don’t you get mad at the people who actually exploit you?
