Does anyone else hate pretty much everyone else in your job field? I'm back in school now but in the year I was working at a full time job, basically every other engineer was a chud who absolutely refused to consider other people and were only doing engineering because they got paid a lot. I know it's good to get to know everyone you work with and build solidarity but it's basically impossible when they're all so insufferable.
How do all of you deal with it?
The absolute worst take on workplace relationships. I cannot imagine taking this attitude and claiming working class politics.
Yeah good luck unionizing with that mentality. Or good luck nudging coworkers -- who you spend as much time around as anyone in your life, and who you have endless opportunities to talk to -- in a better direction. Shit, good luck advancing in your field if you're the guy who no one ever talks to.
I live in red Florida and good luck unionizing without that mentality either lmao. Like everyone is gonna suddenly stop being completely atomized and Decades of alienation will melt away if you ask Karen if she saw the Rays game last night, yeesh lol
Is that what I'm saying here?
I wish I could talk with my co-workers. Seven months of remote work is seriously weighing on me.
If you think I'm there to make friends with the people instead of needing the cash to live, I dunno what to tell you. I'm not even claiming working class politics, I'm answering OP's question of "how do I deal with CHUDs?" I don't deal with the CHUDs unless my job requires me to "deal with them."
I'm not going to radicalize them, nor do I have the mental energy or care to.
But feel free to say I'm shitty or don't understand working class politics because I don't want to sit there and play "dodge around their politics for a $1 more raise per year."
