What I was and am saying, doesn't have anything to do with hate or anything like that though. It's a cold, calculated take on a cold, calculating system, in which it's ultimately only about what you're getting and what you're giving up, and how to get more while giving up less.
Somehow it decided that emotions are a weakness to exploit. And it works!
So, I would advise any new worker anywhere neither hate, nor love, nor fear, but to lend no emotional attachment to the workplace whatsoever. If somebody you sell something to starts appealing to your emotions, trying to scare you or put you down, or on the other hand, sweet-talk you, play you up, there's a very good chance that they are trying to lowball you. Basic market stuff, you know.
Here, you're selling your labour. So. Neither the leash of dismissal nor the carrot of "company loyalty" should concern you. You are not your job. You are your work, alright, but you are not your job.

@drq@mastodon.ml Or you carry on being blind to your true intentions behind all this rationalization. Can you tell that your vision is the only true one there? :)
And i disagree. Emotions towards your job are ok. Yeah, in some cases that may (and in most cases will) lead to one getting less money for their time. May lead to opposite as well sometimes. But. That may lead to less stress, more satisfaction off the work itself. Feeling of doing something important or meaningful. Which leads to less mental issues. And this vision of your job as emotionless exchanging your time for money in some cases may (and in most cases will) lead to exhausting and/or another mental issues.
Cold calculated take? Somehow not taking into account such something as important as mental health, focusing only on basic formal interactions? From a man that won't miss a single opportunity to mention that such systems are not as important as people behind them?
Ok :)
Let's do it this way. Yeah, sure, that was only a take on a problem. Friendly advice on how to survive in this cruel world, nothing more. I see what i wanna see.
