/labor/ - Labor

Things suck right now in Amerikkka and I can only imagine how much it will be in 2027 when I graduate High-School, I worry that with this gig-economy and AI shit going around I will never achieve my art dreams and be stuck as a Wagie.

What is the coziest job? I love the idea of being a fisherman. Can you imagine being a Scandinavian fisherman? Must be awesome.

I fantasize a lot about being a hard-bodied young man sailing across the world, exploring all of Europe, all the while serving my nation by being the best Fisherman in all the land. Hopefully I will reincarnate into something like that. Unfortunately I'm a lazy-eyed, glasses-wearing, wimpy little freak.

Do any of you work some kind of sinecure?

What is your job description and what do you actually do? Does it pay the bills? Do you take the time to pursue some hobbies or do you mostly just chill?

Was tricked to sign a letter of resignation from my job at the russian post office. Despite the fact that I was on probation and my employment contract was fixed-term (although informally after its termination they almost always offer a full-time position) my…I don't know - supervisor? the main bitch of the workplace? didn't like me because of a couple of fuckups like a cash shortage, which I was really guilty of and paid for out of my own pocket (the statement of financial responsibility was signed by me on the first day of employment), and she decided to lie that the employee I was replacing was about to go to work.
Which was an easily verifiable lie that I realized literally as I closed the door behind me. Ah, yes, since I quit "at my own request", I have to work for three days, so called "otrabotka" (two weeks if you were taken without probation), which I will not do (devilish?), because after signing my resignation letter I am no longer an employee and can not be forced to work.
Also new thing I learned opening the labor code for the first time.
-there is no concept of working after dismissal, but there is a concept of notification before dismissal, so it should be 3 days or 2 weeks before the fact.

Thanks for reading my stupid rant.

you will just be out of a job and unable to get a new one or pay for these things. Itl go little by little though so when it happens to you god forbid, maybe you have peak job security, itl just be the same old tale of someone losing their job and needing to put their nose to the grindstone if they want out of the mess. Except one day there will also be no "way out of this mess" on an individual level. By the time there is an issue to our ability to get food or power we will already have long dwindled and moved on this isnt a collapse in my opinion where any of these things will be directly "taken away" from you. Itl be like the sly turned red and the moon exploded and yet there really isnt anything we can do about that so we all just go about our lives for as long as possible trying to ignore it.

Maybe better than a collapse id call it a cascade or something because we won't be in "post capitalism" itl just fall from the sky above into our lap. If you still have power and food and your work still has power and food you probably will go about your days same as always, like you are doing now! If you have friends even better. Thee elite liquidate asset owning middle class via insider trading or really just the banal fact that capital and the stocks ups and downs orbit the ultra wealthy at an increasing rate that a middling financial advisor can not keep up with or guarantee any longer that "the stock markets always up long term" even if it is. It still is but is increasingly not a valid promise of security regarding the middle classes few hundred thousands. They will likely see the writing on the wall and panic at the writing on the wall before anyone, hate to say it. Because yeah this is no traditional collapse, and to be frank if you are OP I still stand by you in that its not a collapse that has anything to do with partisian politics or peoples views on sex and its not because of our personal ideological disagreements and while I think fascism and racism are serious problems the crying and screaming that this era of capitalism we are in is "fascist" is a disservice to just how unique capitalism is. We easily could have had someone like mamdani run for president and get elected and while that would make me very happy and for me housing insecurity is a real likelihood in the distant future, capitalism would mold and shift to be forward facing "socialist capitalism" instead of forward facing "fascist capitalism".

Most people are retarded assholes and the government does not represent my views or needs, instead we have idiots sacrificing my rights to appease elites.
I feel like everyone hates me because I don't side with their religious or political views

I hate the human race
Humans are destructive, why would I want to contribute to a society that constantly kills each other?
Most people are sociopaths
I'm tired of them trying to include me into their soykaf
I think the planet would be better off without humans
I'm tired of humanity, I see no purpose in contributing to this hell

I'd rather be homeless and free to reign than to work for a species of violent apes
I'm tired of all this

because it's always gossiping and petty drama all the time.
My favorite workplace environment was a warehouse where 95% of the employees were dudes and the rest were butch lesbians who were actually pretty chill compared to their straight counterparts.

Stemlords are actually picrel. Its no surprise stemlords are complete retards. Im doing a masters in STEM and can't believe how intellectually barren math and this field is. There is no critical thinking involved, just memorizing some garbage symbols and their rules. Solving some dumb problems with some dumb patterns and repeat.

How did stemlords get so much prestige, while being just mere symbol technicians? Humanities at least teaches some theory and critical thinking, STEM is just complete trash meant for brainlets.

No wonder philosophy underpins all math and logic, stem is just surface level work for retards. I havent encountered a single intellectually deep thought in STEM once.

How do I find the job in my field if I have been out of college for years and have no relevant experience? I would like something in a public or non-profit sector, where I could do social science research or data analytics. But like I dont think I have much of a chance of getting hired into entry level position if they could take a fresh collage graduate with intership experience. Is there anything I can do? I cant bear being stuck in dead end nightmare I am at now.
