I don't mind doing work, but I do mind not being compensated enough that even working 60+ hours a week won't afford me even the cheapest rat-hole to live in. The fuck is the point of spending my time slaving away for some rich fuck to get richer while I live in the street or a car if I am lucky?

Those kids have no idea whatsoever of what went on at Stalingrad.

How did you get that shirt so clean mate?

Next time censor the J word please

In the future they'll just censor all of the verbs, nouns, and adjectives.

Or, in modern parlance, "In the f*ture th*y'll just c*ns*r all of the v*rbs, n**ns and adj*ctives."

The star will be the only vowel. Eventually they'll just drop it all together and English will be only consonants. Children will ask "nn gndrd prnt fgr, why ds th kybrd hv ths xtr fnny lttrs?" And no one will know the answer.

Some people get offended by pronouns, better censor those too

Imagine having a job, lol

I feel attacked that one of the jobdonthavers is wearing a TTGL shirt.

That may be, but I still believe. In the me that I believe in. In humanity. In the future. I believe. My drill is my soul!

I think heard in passing, some video clip saying a dude was "promoting the 9-5 lifestyle", aka having a job? Is that bad now? I'm getting old.

It's more exploitative than many younger individuals agree with. 40 hours and still can't buy a home? I'd say the 9 to 5 is a failed experiment.

Thanks for the context. Fwiw I can definitely empathize with that. Companies have been giving employees shit deals more and more over time.

For instance, I've met single company lifers and can't imagine that level of loyalty given a company wouldn't think twice to lay me off.

A lot of people like that are just coasting along, and fairly happy with where they are.

And that's fine, if your company treats you well, it's not a moral failing or anything.
