The way we've structured work in the U.S. is a capitalist farce. We've been duped into working our asses off to make someone else who doesn't care about your well-being a large pile of money. So, I get my work done, I don't slack, but, I'm not going to go out of my way to do things for a company that would replace me tomorrow if I got bit by a bus.
I love the image of a bus zooming towards you, the fear of being hit, the bus stops at the last second, you're so relieved 'whew', and then it opens it's giant bus mouth like jaws and CHOMP!
What kind of buses can bite you?
This kind? :)
The bad kind, you'll know it when you see them.
He must live near Totoro’s catbus.
I don't care if my company replaces me same day if I die. They should.
Don't go out of your way for a company that will fire you if you get sick. That's the big one.
That was kind of the point. Getting hit by a bus doesn't necessarily kill you, but will put you in the hospital for a long time.
