So, obviously stealing from work is cool as hell, but I do think there is merit to being a hard worker, too. Obviously, this is all contingent on the nature of the work, but as a hospital worker and member of a union, I just try to remain mindful of the impact my actions have on my coworkers. I think being reliable and trustworthy in an effective way to build solidarity, and strengthens the bonds between us.
I think it's easy for some workers to misdirect their anger against their "lazy coworkers" and by earning their respect, i can help redirect that frustration against our bosses and the hospital's board of directors.
I'm not trying to be preachy, and I recognize that my circumstances are different than many workers because I actually belong to a union.
