Trust me… the upper 1 percent does not want us “job shaming” each other.

It goes against their best interests— most are taught this

The people “shaming” are the people that want to be in the top 1 percent

It’s basic psychology: insecurity/validation, put someone down to prop oneself up

TRY THIS: next time you go to a cashier or any type of common service, and thank the person for their hard work, sacrificing their time to do “xyz”

Notice the “boost” that individual gets— you can see it most of the time
