It really bugs me because it's so common and yet so immoral.

From my experience, the whole unpaid overtime scam usually begins by the boss saying, "We are very pleased with your work and would like to give you more responsibility...."

I was thinking this while I was washing dishes. Man, you’re ****ed no matter what. As I teacher I was ****ed. Unemployed I’m ****ed. Restaurant negro. ****ed. The only time in my life when I didn’t have glass ***** up my ass I was overseas. Your time is stolen. Your energy is stolen. Your sanity is stolen. Rich people kill thenselves. Poor people kill each other. Instead of investing in ourselves collectively we budget a military bigger than the next ten put together. Honest to God, if you don’t hate America you’re a ****ing fool. People wonder how could I want there to be a civil war or for Putin to knock us off the map. How could you ****ing not? We’re ruining the whole ****ing world. **** America.
