Lvl 146: No One Wants to Work Anymore

Holy shit, fam. It's happeneing! It was only a matter of time before people stopped wanting to work for slave wages and embraced their inner-sloth instead. If there's one thing good about this whole damn pandemic, it's that it created the opportunity to wake people up. See, a lot of people lost their jobs. (That's unfortunate in itself but does have a happy ending) They had to file for unemployment (again, kind of sucks to have to do that) Well guess what? That unemployment check? Get this! Paid more than they were making at their 9 to 5 job! Well I'll be damned! Here's the good part: This higher paying unemployment check was enough to shake people out of their brainwashed state of mind, getting them to think... "Hey now wait a minute. Why in the HELL am I working my ass off, to barely be able to pay bills, when I can lay here on the couch, collect my unemployment and not have to worry about how I'm gonna afford to eat." So...why would they go back to working if they can receive MORE compensation for NOT working? All across the nation, corporations are ever so desperately trying to hire new employees. But no one wants to even apply, yet alone work for them, simply because it doesn't make sense to. It takes more effort to work a job than it does to sit at home and yields less results (pay). It's MAXIMIZING effort and MINIMIZING results. People don't want to do that shit. They want to minimize effort and maximize results. We're all a bit lazy if we're being honest, because that's what laziness is and that's what laziness does. But like all things, laziness is good in balance. People want their efforts to fairly match their results. And we'll choose the option that brings us the most results with the least amount of effort. Energy conservation. It's a survival mechanism. But anyway, now these corporation complain "OH! Nobody wants to work. They're all just lazy sons of a bitches." And you know what? Yeah, we are. We're being lazy. If wanting fair compensation for the amount of work/effort we put in makes us lazy, so be it. But I want to point out just how greedy these big corps are being. They could EASILY pay higher wages. They just....refuse. Like, here's the thing, guys, it's not that people DON'T want to work, like at all. They'd very much be wiling to work and have a job and show up 9 to 5 or whatever But. It's that people don't want to work for shit compensation. Simple. Laziness helps you be able to say "This isn't worth my energy. This isn't worth my time." Sure, in excess, laziness does become a detriment, destroying your motivation, making you stuck in a  rut. But in balance and moderation, laziness is a good thing. It allows you to know the worth of your time and energy and invest in things that offer good returns. It's funny how greed is an acceptable sin in society. Like laziness is somehow the bane of all existence, but greed is okay. Ya know it's okay for these corporate owners bastards to pay scraps off the table as wages to their employees, avoid taxes, and stuff their fat wallets, but it's not okay for a person to want to be provided for. As if wanting to be able to actually live as a human being and not have to break your back and pop a vein from stress at work is such a terrible thing. Anyway, it's good see people realizing the power of laziness. It's a shame it took a literal apocalypse for it to happen, but hey. Here we are, the revolution is starting. I suppose it takes a storm to see a rainbow. Read the full blog: http://www.procrastin8r.com/blog/noworkers Subscribe to the Newsletter: http://www.procrastin8r.com/subscribe
