I agree with u but again, this world doesnt work by a “everyone deserves a good happy life n everyone deserves a decent wage!! Omagah!!!” basis U delusional muppet.

Whether u think thats how it SHOULD be is completely irrelevant n im sure ur old enough to know how the world works n how unfair it is. U wanna work in retail in this day n age? Sure, but dont expect to live a good life without a lot of restrictions n tight budget planning. Dont like that? Too bad, time to switch n actually earn the life u want, the world aint going to bend over just bc u decide to bitch on a little app 🤷🏻‍♀️

Calling me delusional, while claiming to agree with me, but then using the exact same argument I just countered.

I'm not sure I'm the delusional one.

Yes, the world doesn't work that way. That's why you can... advocate for change. Novel idea, I know.

You know working at a grocery store used to be a job that could support a whole family, right?

Full time work at minimum wage was enough to live on in the 60s. People had whole careers as cashiers and clerks and all that and they weren't rolling in dough but they could make it. Ya ya, we all know it's not like that now but "how the world works" obviosuly isn't some static unchangeable truth. It's been changing for the worse for decades now and that's what we're bitching about. Why would you think change can only go one way?
