They're not paying a living wage, they expect you to be available when they want you and to go away when they don't, and they give you hideous workloads. They rob you of dignity, cheat you money, and deprive you of benefits. "No one wants to work anymore." Fucking bullshit.

"Nobody wants to work" always has the unspoken second part, "for what I want to pay."

I've had so many shitty managers, including three millennials. People literally cant treat employees like humans and just a productivity machine. I worked jobs both at big corps and small mom and pop stores and they are all the same

I have a problem with hierarchy honestly. It goes deeper than just not like capitalism or communism or monarchism or whatever.

Hierarchy is at the root of so many of our problems as a species.
