    Oh, yes you did.

    Unless you think your boss cares about you, which they don’t.

      My boss does indeed care about me. But then, I have a real job and a specialized skillsets, because I’m more than a few years out of my undergrad.

      Some day you’ll be valuable. Keep studying!

        Lol tell yourself that.

        Have fun wasting your life serving some snake who will throw you away the second you outlive your usefulness to him. I’m sure in your dreams Saruman will remember you and give you special treatment, Orc #4749384.

        Meanwhile the rest of us will escape, or fight back, and live meaningful lives.

          My boss is a woman, and you’ve just described every business relationship. If they don’t pay me what I’m worth, I’ll leave, too. Work isn’t a marriage.

          Meanwhile the rest of us will escape, or fight back, and live meaningful lives.

          You’re 0/3 there big guy.

            Okay then, she doesn’t care about you and will fire you the second it’s convenient or necessary for her. And then you’ll be exploited by some other piece of shit, and another, and another. Amd you’ll never get the wealth you want; the system’s designed that way.

            It might be hard for you to hear, but it’s the truth. Indenturing yourself to some dipshit for sustenance will not benefit you long term. Not even short term, really.

            You’re 0/3 there big guy.

              I’m not exploited. I sell my skills and knowledge for an agreed-upon rate (that the rate is very high is immaterial).

              I already have the wealth I want. I’m not 0/3, you are.

                Ohh, yes you are lol.

                The world that you wasted so much of your life defending is about to topple because the people around you were quicker to realize it’s all a scam than you are, and that bothers you.

                It bothers you that all your time and energy struggling to accrue capital will be wasted if the rest of us get the freedom they want and that’s what bothers you.

                It’s going to happen regardless of our opinions so you’d be wise to accept it and prepare now. The only one who’s gonna suffer is you. 🤷

                  Nah.

                  No one’s gonna fight the revolution for you, and you can’t fight.

                    If you felt that way, you wouldn’t be worried arguing with everyone on Lemmy about it.

                    It’s fact that more and more people are gearing up for their political camp’s interpretation of a revolution anyway so you trying to bully people to go back to work isn’t going to do any good regardless. You’re just entrenching people in it, if anything.
