"Resignations are rising because people are seeing more job listings, not because they’re feeling more Marxist."
All the recent union pushes are just coincidence... I guess.

not necessarily. you can find your work enjoying and fulfilling, but resent that you aren't making enough to live off of it. This is the case for most artists, for example. They have to subsequently get other jobs that they hate to make it by.

Yea seems like a contradiction to me. Like there isn’t a job anyone won’t do; just a wage they won’t do it for. I’d clean toilets for like 90K a year but I wouldn’t like it

That’s also true. I’ve got a very good friend who works for Raytheon but makes well over 100K which is money I can only dream of. They just aren’t in the same place as I am ideologically but I think you’re onto something

Olufemi Taiwo touched upon these things in an interview (podcast Last Dope Intellectual) for his upcoming book Elite Capture.
I think it’s more broadly about all things the elites capture (for instance, regulatory agencies), but tbh I don’t have the best memory/the interview was more free-wheeling than “give an outline of your book”.
The context was about people taking on the class-characteristics of their peers/whatever the job requires, regardless of how they may have started ideologically (to some extent, it’s contextual, etc).
This is all to say, I’m very much looking forward to that book, I thought it was a very interesting and worthwhile topic
I've hated every clerk job I've ever had, and would have hated it if it made me a millionaire. I wouldn't have quit so quick if it made me a millionaire, but I'd still have hated it.
