R/antiwork at it again |
They got ditched for /r/WorkReform after the mods went mental. |  |

A friend of mine was denied a pay rise last year as the company did not make the profits they wanted (but still made profits).
Pay rise time comes around again but this year they did make whopping profits.
Company doesn't give pay rises because the coming year is going to be difficult.
Arseholes. |
You can bet the senior mgmt team have all got plenty of juicy shares that paid out handsome dividends. |  | | |

People who don’t drink hot drinks are deviants to be fair. |
I do drink hot drinks. Just not at work. The state of the cups in most places are disgusting and they are never washed up properly. Quite happy with my bottle of water. |  |

It must be a generation thing. When I first went into the workplace forty years ago, it was those of us who put in the extra office hours who got the promotions. Not the people who were known as "clock watchers".
I think it's part of an ethic that prepares you for having your own business.
I'm not saying it's right but it's the culture I was brought up in. [Post edited 7 Sep 2022 10:05]

It's an extremely lazy metric for productivity, which should be more at home in Victorian factories than in the modern workplace. Productivity is no longer proportional to hours spent working, so it should not be used as a metric of productivity. |  | | |

Unfortunately not been mine, or many others, experience.
Pay rises I've usually had to secure via leaving wherever I'm working for example. |
I’ve always made a point of not staying when made a counter-offer. If the employer does match the offer, I read it as they could have afforded to pay me that originally but didn’t. | | | |

I shall take a look at that one. Used to like antiwork but the idea seems to have been radicalised. | |

It's not radicalisation, it's much needed drastic action in a failing civilisation where the power structures have no interest in changing without force/pressure. |  |

The mods running that subreddit were pretty extreme, and their Fox News interview was just utterly embarrassing. If you want to be a serious movement, you need serious people to do those sorts of things.
Also the community told them not to do it and they went ahead and did it anyway.
WorkReform is much better, although a lot of the discussion is focussed on US politics and trying to help people unionise. | |

There's a lot of posts these days from people wanting a pat on the back who have zero interest in fairness and just want to attack anyone who owns a business or is in management. | |

Why don't you take and wash your own cup?
I manage to do that for my green tea, it's surprisingly easy.

There's also another way of making sure no-one else uses your mug... as we've heard about on here before... |  |

Ahh you meant literally in the Reddit. I thought you meant in general terms of being anti-work. My bad. | |

What gave you that idea? I was also happy to make the tea and wash up even if I didn't drink hot drinks at work. | |

If I wanted to I wouldn't have done. Not sure why it's an issue really. | |

Probably explains why he’s now running a gourmet burger business in the Gorbals.
Fair play though, first van in last van out.

It triggered my employers and the band of cretins I had to work with at the time.
To give an example of the attitude of the directors, one of them actually had a go at someone on the phone for keeping him waiting because "an hour of my time is worth two of anyone else's"

My last job before venturing out on my own was working for an incredibly awful individual. I was his project Director and every other Wednesday morning we had a weekly meeting where he would tear all heads of department a new one of the previous week’s figures weere unacceptable.
I remember feeling physically sick when turning into the car park on a Wednesday.
The bloke was a megalomaniac. His opening salvo to new starts was “my watch cost more than your car and my car cost more than your house”. He thought that was motivational.
In the winter time he would send the tea boy out to start his car and sit in it until it was warm enough for the director to get in.
In the end he branched out with three offices so I simply based myself in one of the new offices so that I had very little face to face interaction with him other than every other Wednesday,
When myself and my former business partner set up on our own we came back for a large chunk of his management team a year into our new business and we were determined never to treat staff as badly as he did. |  |
