The feeling of being part of the group and contributing has been co-opted and perverted by capitalism.

MODERATORS
A vast, vast amount of work in modern economies just objectively does not need to be done for any good reason, but is performed to keep capitalism from collapsing in on itself.
And typically the less money someone makes the more vital they are for society to function.
Everyone 40s or younger where I work is so clearly sick of the shit. None of us are making as much as the older folks and they still go by the “good ole boy” system. I’m just grateful that we can control our own area, we take off whenever (provided we have the time), and our direct boss treats us well. Glad to see the kids these days understand this shit isn’t worth it anymore and are acting accordingly.
It really is hard to find a job where you can go home at the end of the day and feel like what you did that day has benefitted the human race at all.
Why do we have to sell our soul just to survive?
Capitalism
Because the economy is based on exploitation and profit maxing, not the benefit of society.

Anyone that demands another person get a job is psychotic
Psychosis isn't being a dickhead. It's suffering from delusions and/or hallucinations. It can be really stressful to go through because the delusions are often paranoid ones, like that the government planted a chip inside your body and you need to dig it out with a knife. It's serious business.

Get a job
Yeah like this guy
I contributed 14 (out of 60) points to trivia today.
Working at evil asshole inc is a blessing in disguise...fuck up a little here and a little there. Not enough for anyone to notice but enough that if everyone is fucking up the entire company can do the opposite of thrive while still giving you money. Investors don't like that.
This is how we win over AI enshitification.
But if I get a job the government will stop sending checks!
I hate them so much
Wait until you meet the department heads. They're sharks with frikkin later beams attached to their heads.
