The veneration of the C-level vampires is insane. The way we are made to treat them is gross. We are told to make ourselves like peasants before new CORPO KINGS/QUEENS. This is EXACTLY why every place should be organized. We should venerate each other not them.
That's where I like the subreddit's response. All of the upvoted comments are some variation of "print it out and put it everywhere", "report those conditions to the government instead of telling the CEO that hates you", "this is gaslighting and nursing is 1:1 an abusive relationship", or "show it to the CEO to fuck over the person who sent it". r/Nursing is refreshingly radical and just needs a little nudge from agitators to become a big unionist platform.

Nursing is one of this very REAL non-bullshit jobs that needs far better conditions and compensation. It's up there with teachers as something that fundamentally needs more social cache as well as great labor power. They are some of the last workers in the modern age that have none of the benefits of "professionalism" while truly being working professionals. They are do real work and I got would gladly pay more taxes in support of nurses and teachers. Better conditions, better pay, more training, better access to become a nurse or teacher so there are more them overall. That sort of top-down and bottom-up re-work is needed for their very real job.
It's the worst and most stressful job I've done. Like teaching it's also uniquely intersectional because it's always been marginalised as "women's work" and offloaded onto minority groups. They're the frontline for every societal failure and working in healthcare feels like a human dairy where you milk your patients of their suffering as a generic commodity. There's so much potential there in building wider class consciousness.
