That’s not what the anti work movement is, though. They are explicitly not about work reforms or increased worker rights-they don’t think people should have to work if they don’t want to-I think it’s tied to the ubi movement. What you’re describing is completely different.


Um, you must be joking or extremely clueless about the movement. LOL just stating open lies now?

The anti-work movement has been instrumental in recent reforms, strikes, and unionizations being successful, like the Kellog strike and Kroger strike. You really need to research a topic before posting.

Everything is short staffed because we stopped letting immigrants in

Moving to a different job for twice the pay has nothing to do with the anti work movement.


You're not understanding the anti-work movement. It's about not putting up with bad working conditions. It's across many types of jobs. It's nurses leaving because the hospital has the money to pay travel nurses but not staff nurses. It's teachers leaving because they don't get support from admin on kids' horrible behavior issues. It's also the hourly employee at Starbucks who has a bad manager that demands too much. These people are not leaving their current jobs to sit in a parent's basement. They are leaving to find an opportunity where they feel valued and supported.

Yeah I've browsed the subreddit and the stories are all "I quit and found a job that actually treats me like a human" not "I quit and do nothing".

I don't think people realize how bad retail/food service is until you've worked it. I got sick at a fast food job I had as a teen. I was actively vomiting and got yelled at for not continuing to make pizzas and wanting to go home. Inwas never ever given a break despite it being legally mandated.

My next job was at a theme park where the employees were unionized and things were night and day better. We got our breaks like clockwork, we were rotated so no one was outside in the heat for too long. When I found out my cousin had died at i was at work, my manager immediately let me go home.

Socialism is to blame. Once the attitude of “the government will take care of me” finds traction, to motivation to actually work for a living diminishes.

You seem genuinely clueless, and for that I feel bad for you. Still, everyone, no matter their intellectual level, should at least ATTEMPT to research or understand something before spouting off nonsense. Good luck. Maybe youre senile

I mean…yes, many of them absolutely are. They have the means to quit a toxic job because they are not actually supporting themselves.

I think it’s disingenuous to characterize your experience of leaving a crappy job for a much better paying job as emblematic of the antiwork movement. That’s just…having a career.

Quitting a job the pays badly and treats you worse is taking care of yourself.
