You get to choose your actions. All actions are allowed, though you may not like the consequences.
> "It kills me every time, but I NEED my paycheck more than I prefer to help my fellow human."
What's killing you here? "It" is your decision to comply. A more active phrasing might be "I kill me every time I choose to comply with management's requests..."
Also, it sounds like you chose to believe, if only by accident, that money is a human need. This is false...we simply have cultures around the world where asking our community for support is not considered acceptable. Again, this is a lie. If you ask enough people for help, you'll eventually find someone willing. There's more than enough of everything to go around, especially money.

If you ask enough people for help, you'll eventually find someone willing. There's more than enough of everything to go around, especially money. But ultimately, it all comes back to money. That's the rub, isn't it? Whether it's your or someone else's, "money makes the world go round".
- crawfordcomeaux 9y agoYes, for now. Capitalism won't be dismantled instantly and will need to be phased out. It'll happen as people around the world relearn it's ok to ask for what we need.
- crawfordcomeaux 9y agoI'm curious why people might be downvoting messages like these. Could it be because it's harder for some to imagine the end of the species than the end/evolution of capitalism?
