I thought this was going to be more of polling post.

Anyway I did. I deleted my account and haven’t gone back for anything since then. It’s rough too cause now there’s no connection to the local groups here.

I joined a local instance hoping there would be local people posting but I guess that’s not how lemmy works.

We have a lot of engineers, and various departments. The customer service side is pretty small but then there are things like advertising and our social media group which is huge cause its more important.

lol the app I work for hires like 400 people per site.

I work for an app and there’s lots of roles to fill and things to do.

Totally agree.

In this case, I am in the group that over laps which is why I mentioned it.

those groups definitely over lap though.

It’s called helping each other.

are you here out of boredom?

Actually, the person in the tweet is saying they don’t want to work

where did they say that?

Meanwhile, people like the one in the tweet just want stuff for free. They don’t actually want a society where people get what they deserve, really they just wish they were born to a rich family and don’t have to work.

I gave you an upvote cause I agree with a lot of what you’re saying but a lot of people in the comments seem to be applying a whole lot of meaning to that tweet that isn’t really there.

All it says it that they didn’t consent to the bullshit we currently deal with. Isn’t that what the anti-work movement is? We’re all sick of the 9-5 bullshit 40+ hour a week grind in order to live?

I mean… just looking at it I agreed cause yeah, I didn’t fucking consent to this shit.

That doesn’t magically mean I don’t want to work ever. It means I want to work in different ways.

If you are more efficient then you probably need to work at hiding that from your employer and finding a way to spend the hours you save doing something beneficial for yourself

I can get away with this at like office jobs but if you work on your feet, I don’t see that happening. I never had extra time in the service industry.

Not all art needs to be bought and sold.

Damn straight. I’m an artist and I don’t sell my art cause I don’t like having a transactional relationship with someone.

I don’t get all the people who are here that clearly aren’t anti-work.

like why are they here? Isn’t this a community for anti work and not against it?

there are ways to contribute that aren’t 40+ hours a week.

You can eat lava… but only once.

lol my city has several libraries which aren’t book stores.

lol good thinking

they have the most annoying commercials ever and I hate that I go to a bar and have to suffer through them while watching sports. Like I can’t even ad block there.

I usually don’t like to advocate for violence but gooood I want to spit on whoever came up with their most recent ad campaign.

dammit “Flying to the coast for a third time” got me
