Shoot ive gone through several part time gigs but in every single one I got a raise or two
Shows my value and the effort I put in
Even at "dead end" jobs I managed to climb the ladder
Now im looking at a career I love but never stop trying to improve

2020-05-03 00:30:27 UTC  

I just earned a raise at the company I'm at, and just accepted another job offer based of experience and skill to make twice what I earn now.

2020-05-03 00:31:51 UTC  

At a certain point, in any job you reach a cap, and that's why I left most of those jobs, because corporate says "Oh, man, sorry buddy, we know you worked hard for us but there's just no room in the budget to give you a raise. Sorry."

Because Capitalism does not reward hard work, it rewards gaming the system to exploit the work of others

2020-05-03 00:33:56 UTC  

It rewards lobbying politicians and lawyering up and fortifying your wealth so that you can sit around and do nothing while tens of thousands of people slave away for the legally allowed minimum

All to funnel more money into your pockets

2020-05-03 00:34:42 UTC  

If a billionaire even once actually bothered to work for a day maybe I would care about them

2020-05-03 00:34:48 UTC  

Except my raise was literally stated to be "Because I really hyped my ass"

2020-05-03 00:34:49 UTC  

Maybe

2020-05-03 00:34:53 UTC  

*busted

2020-05-03 00:35:14 UTC  

Yeah, sure, corporate HR knows what to tell you to make you work harder to make the CEO more money

2020-05-03 00:35:32 UTC  

Good jorb eating up that propaganda

2020-05-03 00:36:04 UTC  

I got a raise because guess what
I stepped up to the plate
I learned the computer systems
I took the time to do online training
I had the initiative to excel and got the raise and every job but one I got another raise later

2020-05-03 00:36:05 UTC  

Lmfao

2020-05-03 00:36:15 UTC  

Its propaganda because it refutes your point?

2020-05-03 00:36:16 UTC  

Lame

2020-05-03 00:36:35 UTC  

No, it's propaganda because it makes you ignore the fact that you're not being paid what your labor is worth

2020-05-03 00:37:29 UTC  

It only strengthens my point really, because if you "busting your ass" is some how worth more money why weren't you being paid that before

2020-05-03 00:37:32 UTC  

You lazy shit

2020-05-03 00:37:41 UTC  

You could have been working harder this whole time

2020-05-03 00:37:46 UTC  

But you weren't

2020-05-03 00:37:46 UTC  

@Silverfang I'd only say we arent because of the interventions put in place by our government already. If we had fair market value we wouldnt need minimum wage laws.

2020-05-03 00:37:50 UTC  

You slaker

2020-05-03 00:38:00 UTC  

Except I work retail, my work is literally worth what I'm paid

2020-05-03 00:38:04 UTC  

HOLY FUCK

2020-05-03 00:38:22 UTC  

A communist calling anyone a slacker wont incite a reaction you spud

2020-05-03 00:38:27 UTC  

@mcguyver123 That is the most inccorect thing I've heard since I last blocked an ANCAP

2020-05-03 00:38:39 UTC  

You're telling me some loser stocking shelves is worth above minimum wage

2020-05-03 00:38:43 UTC  

X to doubt

2020-05-03 00:38:48 UTC  

"Wahhhh minimum wage is good"

2020-05-03 00:38:52 UTC  

Sorry, never mind, Totenkopf literally just beat it

2020-05-03 00:39:07 UTC  

"Socialist daddy FDR and all his initiatives are capitalist"

2020-05-03 00:39:22 UTC  

Sorry but if all you do is stock shelves you don't deserve the same wage as idk a doctor

2020-05-03 00:39:29 UTC  

"Woodrow Wilson's federal reserve acts are capitalist"

2020-05-03 00:39:39 UTC  

"Eating glue is good for you"

2020-05-03 00:39:49 UTC  

A legal minimum wage is the only thing preventing corporations from paying you the same they pay the people in southeast asia

2020-05-03 00:39:56 UTC  

No matter if you bust your butt and always keep the shelves stocked
You'll never be worth more to society than a doctor

2020-05-03 00:40:11 UTC  

Bruh stocking shelves is the literal equivalent of what the shits over in Asia do

2020-05-03 00:40:18 UTC  

And the minimum wage is exactly one of the reasons why they are going overseas

2020-05-03 00:40:18 UTC  

If they had the option you would be paid in walmart bucks
