We're trying to reduce the numbers of hours a person has to work.
We talk about the end of paid work being mandatory for survival.

/join #antiwork)Sign the petition on change.org for a guillotine emoji.
petitioning for a fucking emoji epitomizes the criticism that social media is a vehicle for diverting action into impotent dialogue.
retributive violence against individual actors is not the same as dismantling oppressive systems, and should not eclipse the important work of creating resilient communities and networks of mutual aid to replace those heirarchies.
I think you took the joke a bit too seriously
Edit: oh wait wtf I didn't notice the post body. I agree with you then lol
I just wanna conspire with comrades using pretty little pictures.
You mean like when the emoji for gun went from something realistic to a squirt gun?
Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.
Did...did he just invent the vacation?
Next up "I'm a CEO who gets hungry in the middle of the day, so I had a sandwich and some chips and found my creative spark."
more like I had some avocado toast in a nice cafe with my latte. Ah yes, the creative spark.
30 day vacations for all.
Should be 4 day work week and 6 weeks vacation. There is absolutely no need to work this much. So many bullshit jobs, just to keep people employed and busy all their lives.
Not just employed but underemployed. Forty hours a week for not-40 hours worth of money. We call it a grind because it's designed to wear us down to bare subsistence.
Sure, that gets you the time off, but this guy flew to Paris and hung out for that entire time and found his "creative spark". We also need like 50% higher wages so we're not sitting in a Parisian cafe thinking "oh fuck this vacation is going to bankrupt me" or stuck at home unable to afford the flight to begin with.
"What if I pay my workers even less..." 🤔

Or is this just rage bait
Engagement is engagement, whether people are engaged through anger or love.
Engagement is the only metric these types of media sources care about.
Source not for consumption but as proof that it’s not just a bs screenshot for rage bait to push their link
Found a source from Business Insider: https://www.businessinsider.nl/im-a-ceo-who-was-burned-out-so-i-took-30-days-off-from-work-to-recharge-in-paris-and-found-my-creative-spark/
Still could be a rage bait article though.
This guy could be anybody in the EU
I mean... I came here to say that you can go after the guy for being a CEO, but taking a month off is not particularly controversial over here. If anything, when I talk to a US business owner, which I sometimes do, hearing about how they are constantly working is normally more of a red flag than the opposite.
Oh boo fucking hoo. I have zero empathy for these fucks making millions every year and grinding wage slaves into dust.
I'd settle for a Trebuchet emoji, because I'm fine with flinging billionaires across the landscape at high speeds.
Honestly, a lot more fun than a guillotine, imho. Think about the ragdolling as they tumble in the air.
EDIT: Also, the longer the hangtime, the longer they have to think about the decisions that led them to people wanting to fling their body a few miles with a trebuchet. No forced self reflection with a guillotine.
~~eat the rich~~ fling the rich at high velocities
Not quite as catchy, but that does sound amusing!
Fuck emoji, we need guillotines.
People on LinkedIn be like....
Oh god I have so many screenshots of peoples LinkedIn posts that are so detached from reality. Unfortunately most of them are in German.
I was burned out so did mushrooms and looked at the sky naked in a parking lot. I found my God.
Rage bait, moving on.
The CEO’s who are making millions of dollars? I don’t think really do anything, so if they just didn’t show up to work for a month would it even be that noticeable?
You'd see a noticable uptick in productivity without their meddling.
I mean, I'm not a CEO and I could do the same and have vacations days remaining. What you need is an union.
Must be nice
The fact that a 30 day vacation is seen as privileged is a failure of the US.
Obligatory reminder that the guillotine was primarily used against commoners who were the political opponents of the party then in power.
