Almost everyone is, this is not a joke if you compare cost of living, rent, mortgages and wages from now to the 80s, the minimum wage should be about 4-6 times higher than it is.

[@mysticwizard1943]

For one, statements like that kind of imply that minimum wage workers are worth less as people and deserve to be making poverty wages. Like because they do the dirtiest work, even though it needs to be done, they deserve to live the worst. Kind of a shitty mindset if you ask me. For another, if the minimum wage had kept up with inflation and the profits reported by the corporations that employ the majority of American citizens, it would be around $25/hr. So yes, those jobs should be paid much better - $45-50k per year is not enough when they literally house us, educate us, and keep us safe - but don't leave out the people who grow your food, cook your food, serve you your food, clean your home, your business, your streets, who sell you all the things that were also made by minimum wage workers, who package it and ship it to your house, and so on and so on.

[@CommanderCodyChipless]

One day I was talking to my grandpa and chatting about work. I told him that I don't want to work in the food industry anymore or do any more low-paying jobs like that. He praised me for wanting to do better, but then he said something that will always stick with me: "There's always gotta be a man for a job. No matter how much the pay is, they are providing to society far more than they could even imagine, so don't feel bad about being a line cook, because a lot of people rely on cooks so they can simply have the privilege to eat at a restaurant where food is cooked and given to them". And when he said that it made a lot of sense. I feel that the food industry has not evolved with the times. The resource and the food costs keep getting bigger but pay stays relatively stagnant. It's extremely hard for any line cook to live on their own, they either have to still live with their parents or have roommates. Even though some of the best cooks are at the age of 25-30. It just boggles me that people still think restaurant work isn't shit. Everyday I'm cooking pasta, rice, sauces, meats, etc. Doing techniques most people don't use in their own home, yet I'm supposed to get paid such a minimum that makes it to where I'm always poor. I have to do something grand in order to have a comfortable living. That's not how it should be, at all.

[@secondrule]

You cook pasta, rice, sauces...I do that too, I do it for free, at home. No one pays me. And I have to pay for the ingredients myself. And If i don't cook, I don't eat. Sorry, but no one is going to pay a cook more than they have to BOIL an item...literally, you are just boiling food, lol. You want to make more money? Here's a tip: open up your own Restuarant. Owners make the money. A cook who boils pasta, rice, tea, is not a very skilled individual. Your grandpa gave you incorrect advice. If more than a few people can do what you do, you are expendable. Be indispensable that they can't afford to lose you or else someone else will hire you. Sad, but true. If you think a low skilled job should pay you X money, then a skilled job will pay 4X, then what difference does it make if you make 30 dollars an hour, but others with skills are making 120 dollars an hour? You want easy, big money for NO responsibilities, Good luck. I do too. I would love to work as tv watcher and get paid. Maybe in a parallel universe. Not this one.

[@CommanderCodyChipless]

@@secondrule I'll address a few things. 1. There a difference between you cooking food at home vs. me cooking at my restaurant. First off I'm not cooking for just me and 4 other people. I'm cooking for 100s of people a day. On top of that there is a long list of recipes my restaurant makes. We have 6 different kinds of pasta made everyday, we make all our own meats ranging from cut bacon to ribs to tri tip to prime rib, cooked everyday. We make almost all of our own sauces, which is about 30, everyday. The necessary abilities to be able to cook this much food and be able to do it well is definitely not something normal people can do in their homes and thats a fact. You may be an exception to the rule. But most people aren't able to cook like this for themselves. They rather go out and eat. You say no one is going to pay me to boil an item. You are undermining what I do, period. 2. Should I open up a restaurant? Great question. No. I don't want to wait around until i have somewhere around 6 figures to throw at a used restaurant lot so I can "make more money". In fact, I don't need to be paid that much. Fun fact but I actually know my worth. I work at a restaurant which isn't anything grand, I should not be paid more than I'm worth You see how that works? A person can know that he or she should be paid more but not more than their worth, like me. All I'm shedding light on is what cooks are being paid for is not yet to the point to sustain your own life minimally. We just need a tad bit more money buddy, not a 6 figure bank account. Work with some nuance next time. 3. My grandpa gave me powerful advice throughout my life. Spending 20 years of my life with him has surely made it to where no unknown youtube commenter is gonna change my mind. Crazy right.

Now this didn't even happen behind closed doors. They talked about it in the sub, and EVERYONE was shouting at the mods to abort. The whole community knew exactly what was going on and tried to reason with the mods. They took it as unfounded criticism and thought this was a great opportunity. So they went behind everyone's backs and sent this guy. After the interview the sub got bombarded with questions, memes and just assholes brigading for fun. The sub didn't stay closed for long, just for some hours. After it opened people tried to carefully approach the mods to understand why this happened. Well it was a massacre. Just mentioning the issue got your post deleted. People were banned and blocked left, right and center. They were doubling down hard and lashing out at anyone that dared to criticize them. And as was stated, without hyperbole, the sub died. There was a mass exodus to /r/workreforn and that was it. There's even more to the farce, but I haven't got the energy to delve in to it. Anyone interested will quickly find relevant threads. P.S. One more thing. The sub was never about better working conditions. It was literally about ending work, as was stated in the sidebar.

"Workers are treated like shit" is such a blanket statement though. The more untalented or replaceable you are, the worse your working conditions are going to be. This is only natural, there are lot's of other people competing for your job that are willing to work under those conditions. If you don't want to be treated like shit, get a marketable skill that makes you sought after on the market. If you have leverage over your employer, you can make the demands.

The subreddit got a new mod today with an account that was created yesterday. The mods have been corrupted, or always were. This was a calculated effort and it worked flawlessly. There's no way to prove it but it seems obvious. I've read so many good productive threads in that sub. There were countless others that seemed immensely more qualified to speak to the public. That Doreen person didn't even represent the movement very well in the very beginning of the interview. It's about better pay, to keep up with inflation. People want to work. It's good for mental health. Too much is bad and not enough is bad. We just want to be treated like humans. Like individuals. Not machines

Look, I'm all for fighting against the exploitation of labor, and I'm quite a fan of the subreddit, but there is such a grave disconnect between the mods and the members of the community. Laziness is categorically not a virtue. Finding meaningful work is a cornerstone of living a good life. It just so happens that people don't like being stuck in a job that consumes their life and burdens their physical and/or mental health.

I was there when this went down. Muta you’re wrong about one thing, that description about antiwork was 100% serious. The people wanting better work conditions is a relatively new development. Most of the people that were there from the beginning were communists and anarchists who literally believed work should be optional. There’s still a lot of in fighting going on between the people who want better conditions vs the people who don’t want to work. That mod in particular is one of the oldest mods and I believe the creator of that sub. Also they lied, they don’t work 20-25 hours a week. They admitted that they only work 10 hours but they realized that would sound bad. They were demoted from top mod but very mysteriously a brand new account was given mod. Too bad that Doreen isn’t very bright because they clicked on a link that doxxed themselves and people knew for 100% that the new account was him. Also a new mod (a self described 21 year old, long term unemployed, anarchist) did FOUR MORE INTERVIEWS that have yet to be released

Yea not really sure how you put in 25 hours a week as a dog walker tbh... dogs don't need to be walked that often or that long and the people who pay for that really only need the service when they are at their (actual) jobs and can't walk the dog themselves. 5-10 hours a week sounds about right. That's about how much time he'd want to put into his dream job teaching philosophy.

[@firemonkey1015]

I don’t agree with anti work but I could’ve literally made a small script in about 5 minutes of potential questions and meanings behind it to sound logical that would easily pass the interview. “You could quit your job any time” “There needs to be enough people to unite and group together in order for these companies to realize the disparity between hours and wage, the conditions aren’t great and we feel America can play us better on these parts” It’s easy
