But that’s the rub... Only entrepreneurs are truly free. Rest of you are wage cucks.

When I was 18 I told my min wage cuck boss to go fuck himself.

Several failed startup businesses and 20 years later...

I’m glad I don’t work for corporate anymore.

PS I did go back to work for corporate because in the 90’s they didn’t have employee tracking and you could get away with this shit but I wished I got black listed earlier so I’d found my own business sooner. Fuckinf wage cucks.

Imagine being a fucking useless pampered entitled wage cuck with no life skills expecting to get paid a living wage. Get the fuck outta here with that shit. If every single Walmart employee got their shit together instead of throwing wagie tantrums, saved up and got an education and a business degree, we'd at least have several million versions of competing Walmarts to shop from. But instead we get this shit.

When did you actually started your own successful business?

Even without "employee tracking", if you tell every boss you've worked for to go fuck himself, eventually word gets around about you, especially if it's corporate. People generally don't antagonize their employers unless the workplaces are very bad. If you have a hard time dealing with your former employers, how would you be able to even deal with customers?

I was actually about to give up on this one but to my surprise it became more successful than any of the previous ones.

Entepreneurs deal with lots of risks. If the company is big aenough nd it cracks, the enterpreneur can even deal with criminal charges.

There are enterpreneurs who get lucky and others that fail miserably living a life worse then a wagie. But usually they don't come here to tell the story

Meh. I hardly have time to shoe these days but it’s better than working for a Corp.

Back in 2008 I saw my boss of veteran of 10 years burst out in tears when they announced they were laying off the entire department.

I shrugged and patted him on the back cause fuckit. This isn’t 1950 anymore where shareholders deserve your loyalty.

No one deserves slavery. I don't take hard ethical stands on many things, but that's one line that needs to be there.

slavery can be direct or indirect.

in some areas of the world, you're barely better than a serf.

i co owned one business and now own another. the property lease is fucking killing me. takes over 30% of my gross profit. since i've taken over, i've managed to double the net profit. but it's not enough. i'd have to work on tripling it to feel comfortable. making multiples more than being employed by someone else a few years ago but all i do is work now. 12 hours a day 7 days a week.

luckily, this business is fairly easy to relocate and it's the only reason i'm toughing it out for the next five years until the lease runs out. once i move to a more profitable location, i'll pretty much be giving myself a 30% or 40% due to cost reductions.

even under feudalism, landlords had certain responsibilities to the serf's wellbeing. now, small businesses just get squeezed. all i see on my street is empty units FOR LEASE.

This is why the age of staffing agencies is employment kino. Neither your employer or customer can pull off any loyalty cards and have to pay up front for any favors, and you can always negotiate a better deal than any regular employee cucks for staying around since hiring new people and training them costs a fuck ton.

It's very hard to imagine that because employees have their own internal politics to deal with and they're easily replaceable, especially in large companies and the job isn't skilled. Given that, there's no reason for the company to bend over backwards for one employee's opinion or concern.

However, there's absolutely nothing stopping employees of Walmart or Amazon from joining together and protesting the undesirable conditions. But humans being humans, most of them are afraid of risks and distrusting of each other. If people can't even join together to do that, what good a different system do?

Everyone already acknowledges this is wage slavery, to say this is an expression of freedom is deeply perverse.

Workers do on occasion come together and take power that is rightfully theirs. General strikes are real things that have happened. It's not for a company to bend over backward, it's for the employees to bend them over a table for a change.

Look. I’m ancap as they come but I also recognize wage slavery when supported by the state as a violation of the NAP.

The French are justified in rioting.

If you can go to DC and riot there than Godspeed.

But I doubt anyone would bother as Americans are weak these days to ever try to escape economic slavery for fear of a black mark on their employment record.

This guy is crazy to think it's a good idea to criticize his former employer. I heard he landed a new job before quitting Walmart, but I bet his new employer is now wondering if he'll go on Facebook or something to trash-talk them when he becomes inevitably dissatisified with his new job.

I hated working in retail too, but I know better than to badmouth past employers. Just put in the two-week notice and don't look back.
