> If workers have any spare time, it doesn’t go into campaigning in their workplace for better terms and conditions. It is spent in the long queue at Aldi and Lidl for cheaper food. It is spent scouring the newspaper best-buy tables for a cheaper mortgage deal, a lower energy tariff or discounted car insurance. I do feel like life is a bloody attrition war against the universe. Everything is too complicated. Income tax return? Months of paperwork and letters sent back and forth. Car insurance? You better know what you need or the agent will sell you insurance against squirrel attack. Renting an apartment? You better know all renting regulation nuances or in the best case you lose the deposit. Job search? Months long full time job. Health problems different than broken bone or blood squirting out of your body? You’re looking at months and years long waiting for diagnostics and specialist’s attention. Lawyers? Various legal trolls stalk you, but once you need one, none is available. Whatever goes wrong - it’s always your fault, never the fault of the corporate or institutionalized other side, and penalty fees are waiting.
