I'm a VP with a biggish company. Every year, the first week of the year the senior managers from across the US fly somewhere warm, play golf, shoot guns, sit by a beach or a pool, get wasted, ham handedly try to cheat on their spouses and have meetings about how to take more of your labor value. Obviously due to covid that won't be a thing this year, and instead the conferences are virtual, so me, and a couple hundred other ghouls who already make six figures + got shipped huge snack boxes, boxes of booze and received $500 credits at door dash. The CEO just gave his kickoff presentation and, with all the money they saved from not paying for travel they're giving away ten k worth of Amazon gift cards and a brand new Tesla. So just who is eligible for this windfall, you ask. The hundreds of warehouse workers who couldn't work from home, the truck drivers out on the road, installers and sales people exposing themselves to covid every day? Nah, us couple hundred ghouls already making incomes in the top 5%. Can I just guillotine myself and be done with this already?
If you feel bad about having too much money just give it to a worthy cause. It's really that simple.
Like funding a community organizing effort to do such things as building dual power and arming the poor and homeless
infrastructure! food water sleeping arrangements places to exist internet and health, physical and otherwise.
if you're strategic, and you try to deploy these things without restraint, you can make a huge impact that will keep making its impact over and over again. how many fucking comrades here are trapped in bullshit jobs? freeing just one or two up to do work that matters is a big deal. to organize or build systems for when capitalism falls. or to help it fall.
OP has access to corporate infrastructure she could piggyback on, my crime brain says you could do SOMETHING with that, not that I have any god damn clue what.
but, I mean, what's the point of selling out if not to feel hollow and shitty?
