    “people should be paid less” is what the people paying us want you to say. Maybe it’s not “x people should be paid less” but rather “you should be paid more”.

    Don’t hold resentment for people who are scraping by like the rest of us. If you’re resentful that they are paid too much then do some self reflection and realize you’re just mad because you feel like you aren’t paid enough. “Their job is so easy, anyone could do it” is just an excuse hiding your envy.

    So stop trying to belittle those who found a way to survive, and focus on yourself. You think you deserve more than them? Prove it. Yo back to school, demand a raise, switch jobs. Envy is very transparent.

    Or this is just low effort trolling. Either way, same applies, find a way to be more productive and focus your anger on the ones actually holding us down.

    No. If anything they deserve to get paid better. If you knew half the shit they have to put up with you’d agree.

    what kind of thought is this? How is there any job that earns minimum or close to minimum wage (maybe even below the minimum wage) that deserves to earn less??

    Things already are difficult the way they are. Do you understand the consequences of making them earn less? The stress this will put in their lives? Have some compassion. So many people deserve way more money in this world, specially those that do not earn much.

      It’s a new account made for trolling, but we’ve got no active mods, so their rage bait posts will stay up unfortunately.

        In a way, I appreciate it. Seemed like basically nobody minded the thinly-veiled bait posts before… Maybe people will care more now
