CW: angery posting

Jesus I woke up this morning and chose violence, I've been pissed all day.

Like seething anger to murder the corporate capitalist and management classes, not just the normal passive want.

Like unheathily. I need to find a new job. Its not even that difficult, its just useless. Like my position is useless but its actually a good thing it is because I work for the devil and I hate it.

I mean I guess everyone hates their job to a degree, and I'm one of the three people in Gen Z to make a decent wage, so I shouldn't be complaining but ack, fuck.

I hate having all the time and energy from my day being taken by people who are actively trying to get in the way of attempting to contribute to society, and its driving me off the fucking rails.

yeaI kinda felt this. Worked for a landholdings company and felt conflicted bc like, while our jobs were the only ones that mattered, i.e. upkeep of the building and helping tennants, we worked under some of the worst fucking people in a capitalist system. Seeing people get served eviction notices, or the company skimp on renovations was awful. A lot of times tennants would vent to me about how shit the company was, and I would basically just agree and say anything short of gui-better

I'm probably gonna get lynched for this, and maybe I deserve it. I knew when I took this job at 19 I was working for a company that did shitty things. It never really hit how bad it was until a couple of weeks ago when I saw the logo of our parent company on a piece of equipment being used by an Israeli soldier in an article about Gaza.

Shit made me feel physically ill. I want out but I feel like I have a gun to my head, even if I don't.

No but I'd also rather not dox myself by dropping a company name.

Something related I've been thinking about is how cool and useful it would be to have like an underground job network for trans/queer people. It's hard enough to find good jobs as is, but especially hard for people who are so often discriminated against. Would be nice to for our trans comrades to have more choices in where they work.

I'm not even out yet, and as kind of fucked as it sounds, I almost don't want to come out until after I've found something new just to make one last use of the privilege. If I can't find a job now as a white "cis" "man", how the fuck would I as a trans woman?
