Is it even something that’s powered?

We don’t know what the fuck consciousness is.

I didn’t say it, I declared it.

How difficult is it to communicate to others without letting your ego get in the way? I swear, you people act like literal children sometimes haha

One thing I’ve learned is that sometimes you need to let the problems happen. You can raise hell and keep talking about how more hands are needed, but unless issues actually start coming up and affecting people, then no one is going to care/listen.

I had a job in the past that was vastly understaffed. I kept getting more and more, and working longer hours. I brought this up with management many times but nothing was happening. “Not in the budget to hire more” is what I kept getting.

When it got to be too much, I decided I would only work 40 hours, and whatever happens, happens. Our lives are too short to be wasted away at work.

So tasks started to take longer, and whenever something needed doing, it was added to the queue and prioritized appropriately. Sometimes that meant I couldn’t get to it in weeks. At first, I came under fire. “Why haven’t you done this yet??” But each time I explained my situation. “There’s not enough hands and I am doing the best I can with the resources given to me”. And guess what? Most people empathized and understood my predicament. So now I have an army of colleagues who understand the issue here, and now the issue gets more visibility with management as more people rally to my side.

A few months of this, and they decide to hire two more positions to help with the overload of work.

It’s a risky move for sure. They could just fire you and dig themselves into a deeper hole. But then if they do that, is that really the type of environment you’d want to work in anyway?

People are surprisingly understanding when you explain yourself. You don’t need to fix everything and everyone’s problems. Sometimes the best thing you can do is to let the problems happen and observe how others deal with it.

How exactly does one become a spy?

No law’s gonna change us. We have to change us.

I understand the anger. I really do. But you need to relax. Because anger and hatred isn’t going to get us anywhere.

We need to try and understand each other better. We need solidarity, and that will only come from attempting to, in good faith, understand each other and where we come from.

We all have much more in common than you’d think, but speaking like this is just going to close the conversation off instead of opening it up.

Ah yes. The “liberal hivemind” Youtube channel. A reputable source of information and news.
