Who are these journalists who feel like they can make these sorts of scrutinizing judgments on people?
There’s only like a handful of professions(nurse, doctor, civil engineers and construction workers, sanitation and transportation workers, etc) who are vital and probably closer to 100% nonbusy work.
News flash you hack: people have been ‘task masking’ since the beginning of time especially in a capitalist society wherein increasing profits must be manufactured out of thin air, and your job is most likely complete bullshit
Working a trade fucking rules and you get to build something and see it in front of you and hone your skills and knowledge personally outside of capital W Work. I wouldn’t trade it for any other job.
Yeah this is pretty on the nose. A lot of jobs even if they aren’t outright bullshit also are downtime heavy and you may just be needed around in case you’re needed suddenly within a few minutes but you’re expected to be productive 100% of the time even when your core function isn’t really necessary.
I worked at a chain pizza restaurant and we had a computer screen above us that tracked the stores profitability. If we weren’t on track to reach $10k for the day my manager would start sending people home to make up for it.
So a total of ~15 employees could rake in a profit of $10k in the first place but everyone was making $7.25 an hour.
Not much to add except corroborating that experience at a chain pizza place lol. We regularly were told to send our third person home because labor was “too high” one hour before the lunch rush.
Except I was a shift manager so I made $7.50 though
