If they have real skills they can find employment else where.
They are whining because they know they were being over compensated at Google and that they are unlikely to be able to find another job that pays so much money with so little effort.
They're not my enemies but they're not my friends. I don't feel sympathy for them. If anything, they should feel sympathy for me and give me some of that extra cash they've been getting. Why do they deserve it more than I do? I can do "nothing at all" just as well as they did.
- 93po 4y agoI think your frustration is better directed at capitalism in general instead of your fellow workers. Also if you can do their job as well as them, go spend time studying how to interview at Google and get a job there too.
- hsn915 4y agoWhy would I direct my "frustration" at capitalism? I want to exploit capitalism to get rich.

Also, why should they feel sympathy for you, if you're not interested in feeling sympathy for others? > give me some of that extra cash they've been getting. Why do they deserve it more than I do? They don't. Is it their fault that they get paid more and you get paid less for the same or different jobs? Are you pointing your finger at the right people, here? > I can do "nothing at all" just as well as they did. You seem to not like when people aren't paid per their labor output. You and I are probably quite aligned in our values, if that's the case. You and I both, for example, surely both find it insane that there are people, hardworking or otherwise, who now command orders of magnitude more capital than anyone on earth, or even in history. Compared to a billionaire, you at whatever you make, let's say 50k, working harder than a googler making 200k for the same or easier job, are basically siblings in capital. I'd even go so far as to call you class allies. Perhaps the direction of your anger being pointed distinctly away from the people who are actually causing this injustice is helping same? So why are you mad at random people who make a little bit more than you, rather than at someone that makes several tens of millions a year by simply existing?
