@caranha @jillL @deborahh @RustyBertrand Hooray for neo-feudalism, i.e. "You will own nothing and be happy*." 😏 * - because by some sort of hard-to-define Divine Right, we always have 'owned' the storehouses that the fruits of your labor are deposited into and always will 2 comments
@orionkidder @caranha @jillL @deborahh @RustyBertrand Glad to hear you were able to get to a place where you feel safe. 🤝 I guess it kinda shows that even tho I'm happy with where I am, I'm sick to death of a system where Mr. Creosote* tells the restaurant staff "What's wrong with you? You should be grateful you get paid." Which 'trickles down' until it's eventually "What's wrong with you? You should be grateful you get the crumbs of my plate scraps." * - Monty Python skit, but TW: nauseating |

@MySideIsHumanity @caranha @jillL @deborahh @RustyBertrand In theory, we do it as part of our workload and we get paid via promotion, but of course, that only ever really applies to the mostly white men who were promoted, and today, adjunct exploitation has made made it fifty times worse.
All the more reason to talk to us. If you're not getting paid, showing an interest in our work is the second best thing.
(I do have a permanent position now, to be clear.)
