Capitalism
Aimed at people who work for companies:
Are you proud of your work? If so, Why?
Are you friendly with any of your bosses? If so, why?
Do you ever look forward to your job? If so, why?
Do you care about your job beyond the bare minimum to not lose it? If so, why?
@IrisKalmia Yeah, I'm proud of my work, because it helps make people's lives easier and improves the experience of those who use our sites
I'm friendly with my bosses in part because it's one of my survival methods under capitalism
I sometimes look forward to my job when it involves learning something new and interesting
I care about my job insofar as not doing it would make the lives of others much more unpleasant.
@IrisKalmia The parent company of the subdivision under which the brands I work for are originally a direct spinoff from the military industrial complex. They also own brands which make ammunition among other things with the military as one of their customers.
So yeah, kinda. I wish they hadn't bought us, because they've been the source of all of my frustration about work in the past ~2 years.
@IrisKalmia I could have wordsed that better, but I am not yet really awake. >..>
*claws at tea*
@mawr I'd just made a cup! Wishing for coffee but the pod machine stuff at work makes me unhappy in pretty much every possible way.
I think I got the point even if it's a bit word salady ^^
@mawr Don't you work for a company with strong ties to the military industrial complex?
