Capitalism says keep working! - Lemmy.World

I manage a team of 5 people. I told them all not to come in so they could go see the eclipse. I told them not to take vacation and just bill it as normal hours. Three listened to me. One took a half day. One just went and worked…
“yess I’m the only one here today, the boss is surely going to love me more than the rest of those lazy fuckers”
Probably more like “being in crowds cripples me and I hate my home life, so I’d just as soon work.”
Life must be terrible if the only interesting thing you do is work

Yeah I know I’d kill myself.

…no, I’d kill one of the people I thought were responsible.

Yes, not everyone has a great life. And some people love doing what they do.
