Do you remember how long you’ve had a “dream job”? How did anybody ever convince you to dream of labour? Capitalism is to blame.
Here are some other things capitalism has scammed you into believing.
That interviews are a good thing
First of all, why are you auditioning for hard labour and feeling bad when you get rejections? Do you like pain? It’s giving BDSM.
“The harder you work, the more money you make”
Just take a look at your paycheck and that of a politician. You’ll see that capitalism is a bandit. The easiest way to get rich is to be born rich. The next best way is to marry a rich person. The rest is just capitalism trying to swindle you.
“Follow your passion, and money will come”
My passion is sleeping because why am I still a mechanic? Make it make sense.
Dream jobs
This one’s obviously a lie to lure us back to the plantations because why are you dreaming of labour?
“Learning never ends”
Of course, I’ll keep learning after spending ten hours at work screaming, “Can you see my screen?” and an extra two hours in traffic to and from work every day. I’ll definitely keep learning.
“Your network is your net worth”
Just prepare your heart for aggressive airing from all angles. They will snub you so much, you’ll think you’re a ghost.
Weekends
When was the last time you actually rested on a weekend? Just think about it. It’s all a scam.
