Just a below average idiot that mostly comments for one of 3 reasons:

Catharsis, expressing exasperation over the general state of things.

Looking to make someone laugh.

Self deprecation.

  • I have a very strong suspicion that a large number of people would simply work “less” like “quiet quitting” (I hate that term.)

    The majority of people I’ve worked with don’t like asking for raises. It’s not that they don’t think they deserve more, they just have this aversion to going and initiating the conversation. I literally fought for a round of raises for everyone at the factory I work at to be considered because everyone I spoke to said they hadn’t gotten one in ~5 years… I suspect they’ll get envious of the people making more than them, but they won’t have the guts to go ask for what they’re worth and they’ll stew in their envy just working less as retaliation.

    I’m literally dealing with this at my job… I’ve been recording the temperatures this summer to include the heat index that no one ever considers. It was 109°F 2 weeks ago and will be around 111°F-112°F this Friday… We already had 7 days where the factory was over 100°F
