In my experience (from working shitty jobs) is that it's people who are abused by all day by people they can't stand up to (boss, husband, wife, etc.) and they end up unleashing their rage on the minimum wage powerless employee just because they don't have other option
- s1artibartfast 2y agoThat makes sense. Sounds more like some people are just assholes more than a systemic issue with lack of understanding or respect for the difficulty of certain jobs.
- snapcaster 2y agoThat's been my experience, but also I think you're probably just missing the lack of respect thing. The average middle class parent has no respect for these roles when it comes to one of their children doing it
- s1artibartfast 2y agoWhat does respect mean in this context? We started with understanding the amount of effort, but I don't think that's what you're talking about. I don't want my kids to become janitors or work fast food either, but it's not because I think the jobs are too easy. I think it's possible to treat people working these jobs with some basic dignity, while realizing that there are practical differences
- thimkerbell 2y agoI still think there should be pocket-parks with pullup bars and punching bags, so worked-up people can work out their aggressions on something else. Has this been tried anywhere?
- monknomo 2y agoI am pretty sure a lack of exercise opportunity is not the limiting factor for aggro people
- eastbound 2y agoThis is assuming that violence is a given. It’s not. I personally think people should care better about agressive people, rather than the current “block him!” attitude, which leads to pent up aggressivity. A bit of love goes a long way.
