More young people are saying the same thing: Salary and career growth are the most important things about a job. And it could explain why Gen Z workers are so much more unsatisfied with their jobs than their older colleagues.

It's called people aren't falling for some jackass company that thinks splurging on peripheral benefits, shit like ping pong tables, instead of fucking PAYING PEOPLE MORE, is the right move

Fuck would I bust my ass for? So some stupid ass c suite motherfucker that hasn't worked a day in his life can jack himself off about how well he 'motivated people'? So I can have my boss tell me "great job" now and "we can only give a 3.5% raise" later? When 3% is apparently what I'd get if I were too stupid to breathe without written instructions?

I get the same pay if I achieve what's needed or if I work 60 hours a week fixing other people's shit, and an extra .5 to 1 percent raise ain't good enough, fuckstick

I'll never forget being taken to the office at the grocery store and told I wasn't stocking the shelves good enough to get a $0.25 raise, and they would only give me an extra dime per hour. I was barely above minimum wage. And these people said we were a family which is why we didn't need a union. Literally nickel and diming me, telling me to my face that my work didn't deserve like a dollar a shift more than they would do by default.

The bourgeoisie don't seem to understand that most of workers salaries goes on basic necessities
