Here is an example of an open mess boy position on an oil tanker: https://seacrew.net/vacancy/40763 https://seacrew.net/vacancy/40763 And there's countless more similar vacancies. Food, board and $1500 per month. That's a life line out of absolute poverty for any person who is willing to take it. I know that hackers hate it, because the truth is that deep down most of you have a caste mentality and think that people who are born poor should stay poor, and dependent on government handouts. All discussion about "changing the system" is just for show so you can feel good about yourself and pat each other on the back, while things remain the same. So hackers are provoked by people taking their destiny in their own hands and clawing their way out of poverty by virtue of their own honest labour. How dare they leave the ghetto behind, when they belong there?

Oh, so you mean be driftless as well. I thought you meant room and board in a community. It is ridiculous of you think this sort of job is the solution to poverty at any amount of scale. > So hackers are provoked by people taking their destiny in their own hands and clawing their way out of poverty by virtue of their own honest labour. Hackers on this board are provoked when people suggest ways of taking destiny into their own hands that removes power from the tech billionaires, they are not provoked when someone finds a job

  To be fair, "why don't we just exploit the poor?" is a very popular sentiment among people who claim to care about the impoverished. Indeed, it's how most of the world has operated forever.
