    Yeah quiet quitting is great and all but have you tried chaotic working?

    Like. I remember back in my grocery store cashier days I did so much crazy shit.

    When WIC (Women, infants, and children voucher program to help low income mothers/families with children) people were in my line I would pretty much know who they were. Before the cards they had to tell us upfront they were WIC and show us their vouchers for what they were allowed to get (it was awful some times. Like. 2 gallons of milk. $4 worth of vegetables etc etc). They’d always have items hanging back, waiting to see what the total was and if they would have to take it off the belt.

    I began to place the fruits/vegetables a certain way on the register scale so that like 1/2lbs of grapes read as like .28lbs or something. Then act shocked when I said that they still had X amount of lbs left. They got all their fruit and vegetables.

    I think it started to kinda? Catch on to the women? Because I would have the same moms in my line month after month. And even after they switched to the cards (they worked like food stamp cards?) I’d still do the same thing. They were able to get more produce for whatever shitty max amount Indiana gave them.

    Anyways. Be chaotic. It’s more fun that way.

    from iww.org:   "Good Work" Strikes  One of the biggest problems for service industry workers is that many forms of direct action, such as Slowdowns, end up hurting the consumer (most of them also members of the workering class) more than the boss. One way around this is to provide better or cheaper service -- at the boss' expense, of course.  Workers at Mercy Hospital in France, who were afraid that patients would go untreated if they went on strike, instead refused to file the billing slips for drugs, lab tests, treatments, and therapy. As a result, the patients got better care (since time was being spent caring for them instead of doing paperwork), for free. The hospital's income was cut in half, and panic-stricken administrators gave in to all of the workers' demands after three days.  In 1968, Lisbon bus and train workers gave free rides to all passengers to protest a denial of wage increases. Conductors and drivers arrived for work as usual, but the conductors did not pick up their money satchels. Needless to say, public support was solidly behind these take-no-fare strikers.  In New York City, I.W.W. restaurant workers, after losing a strike, won some of their demands by heeding the advice of I.W.W. organizers to "pile up the plates, give 'em double helpings, and figure the checks on the low side."ALT

    macOS finder Get Info dialogue box showing that my current avatar was created on June 9th 2018 at 4:19 am, which is an important date to me, because around this +/- 5 hour time frame is when my mom passed awayALT

    USA: *sells weapons to Saudi Arabia, an oppressive right wing monarchy that commits countless human rights violations everyday and is waging a genocidal war in yemen with the sold weapons* “maduro is a dictator”

    USA: *is strategic allies with people like erdogan in Turkey, who’s jailing journalists, killing protesters, denying genocide committed by his country, literally ordered his body guards to attack protesters on American soil, colludes with ISIS to oppress and destroy Kurdish sovereignty because he’s a violent racist* “the Castro regime is a threat to human rights and the embargo must remain in place, despite it failing for 60 years.”

    USA: *does nothing while another ally, duterte, president of the Philippines slaughters innocent people in the hundreds with the military under flimsy pretenses and rumors to fight a losing drug war* “we have the moral high ground, our record of human rights is solid.”

    USA: *supports Israeli settlement building and ethnic cleansing through apartheid and gentrification, sells missiles to the military to be used predominantly on palestinian non combatants* “Hamas tho.. They brought it on themselves”

    *firebombs Korea, drops napalm and agent Orange on civilians in vietnam and Cambodia, employs CIA trained mercenary death squads in Nicaragua who used sexual assault as a psychological weapon, continues an uncaring drone bombing campaign in the middle east the civillian death toll since 2001 numbers near the millions, instigates war for it’s own benefit in Syria and demonizes the displaced people it’s responsible for*

    THIS MADE ME CRY WHAT THE FUCK

    I. FEEL. LIKE. A GOD.

    Oh thank heavens someone decent reblogged this…

    I feel like this is also why playing video games like Pokemon taught me to be a fast reader. I was impatient so I set the text speed to high and just went with it. It freaking works.
