While the site was down I browsed this subreddit filled with feds, layabouts, and overpaid morons. Here is the fruit of my search:
This might not have gotten any upvotes, but similarly whiny people get upvoted to the stratosphere they relate their struggle of their boss telling them to quit fucking around and work, and it causes them to cry in their car for 2 hours after work.
This is a classic /antiwork post. There's the whiners, but there's also the extremely cossetted first worlders who come to the sub to brag about how great their lives are. This is almost certainly a troll, but it's embarrassing that a radical subreddit thinks it's a win when some bugman stoner gets a work from home job.
Here's another example of the duality of shitlords that infest this subreddit. You have the low-earners who apply for 600 demanding, stressful jobs where they will be treated badly and hear nothing back. And you have the smug guys who fall dick first into a position most people would envy, then come to brag about it to the wagecucks lower on the totem pole.
Speaking of braggers, here's some insufferable prick who read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" then landed some mythical job that requires 20 hours a week and pays 6 figures. I doubt such a job exists, but who knows? One thing is for sure: this guy sounds like a smarmy asshole.
You work so you don't go homeless and starve. But I guess 'giving up' and 'antiwork' are synonymous, so carry on.
I saved the best for last. This brave redditor got 45 people to walk out of a
3 different Lowe's locations because a boss said something bad about gay people. Yup, in this economy, the lowest paid workers up and said, "You know what? I'm going to throw away my livelihood because someone in a different store said something homophobic!" This totally happened you guys!
But here's the kicker: A different account posted this exact same story onto the /antiwork subreddit a few weeks back. Except that first one (posted by u/War-Queen-Xivu-Arath) was deleted because he was in fact the heroic boss that stood up to the homophone and was fired because of it. And the moderators locked and deleted his post because "no employers." I guess bosses are employers? Interestingly, when a redditor pointed this out, Melkor-The-Mighty said, "yeah, that was my good boss, not my alt." and the jannies deleted the archived link to the first thread. It's suspicious as fuck. But the best part is that both War-Queen-Xivu-Arath and Melkor-the-Mighty post on the /Destinythegame subreddit. What a coincidence! Two people who work at the same store, post on the same subreddit using the same manner of speech, saying the same story! But this is totally an organic movement you guys!
