‘No One Wants to Work Anymore,’ Says Boss Who Actively Makes Work Unbearable

ROCKFORD, ILLINOIS - Expressing his frustrations on what he describes as a “complete lack of work ethic” in today’s job market, area businessman John Howie, 68 has spent the past week complaining about how nobody wants to work anymore, despite the fact that he’s the very reason that nobody wants to work anymore.

“I just don’t get it,” Howie said while sipping coffee in his office, which is fully equipped with a leather recliner and a flatscreen TV that gets HBO. “Back in my day, we would show up to work every single day and work hard until our shift was over. It didn’t even matter if we got paid that day — because the quality of our work meant more to us. But now, this younger generation will flat out refuse to work if the workplace is ‘toxic’ or if we don’t provide a ‘living wage.’ Like, give me a break!”

Former employees, however, paint a different story. “He would yell at us for taking our legally required breaks,” said one former employee who asked to remain anonymous. “He really expected us to work at all hours during our shifts, and would often force us to take overtime without any additional payment, threatening repercussions if we didn’t.”

This former employee was luckily able to escape Howie’s reign of terror after being offered a better paying job at a different company. Other employees, however, weren’t so lucky. Howie, however, claims that these claims are exaggerated.

“People are just entitled nowadays,” Howie explained. “If you want to get paid then you’ve gotta work for it — that’s how it’s always worked. If you’re just gonna sit here and whine and complain about working conditions, then don’t be surprised when I pocket your paycheck.”

My boss just sent out a warning email to the staff about a phishing scheme going around. All very well and good. But the message says:

I believe someone just tried to hack into me google account.

And now I can't help but chuckle at the thought of a phishing scheme turning him into a pirate or perhaps a leprechaun.

Bleak House

I've just made a massive career shift. It is perhaps the biggest mistake I've ever made (barring that one person I dated that one time).

I thought that if I could handle the aggressively ambitious coworkers in one industry, it would be just as easy to handle them in another industry. I was wrong. I picked an industry where not only are the coworkers ambitious, but the business is ambitious too.

We want to earn MILLIONS in revenue this year, they said. We have this amazing product that helps other businesses save money. And by selling them this product, we'll make millions and millions.

Alright, I said. How hard can this be? My job involves doing the thing I've done for over ten years. Surely they will just give me broad instructions and let me do my thing – the thing they hired me to do.

I never typically account for the fact that people like to feel important at work. That they usually have motivations beyond making enough money to survive while pursuing their other passions. That kind of work-life balance is for morons like me.

I've always wondered why some people go out of their way to get a pat on the head from the boss, why they try to push their teams to the very limits. I've always assumed that everyone is on board with the status quo – we're pretending to hold up the illusion of "business" so we can use our Monopoly money to find ways to be happy.

I don't know about you, but I use my Monopoly money to buy books, have meals with friends, get a pretentious art film subscription, collect vinyls and so on and so forth. My Monopoly money reminds me that there is a life outside of the 40-hour construct of a work week.

During those 40 hours, I'm expected to say unintelligible things like ROI and CPC and learn frameworks someone made up to be able to sell their book. I'm expected to join meetings where we discuss outcomes, outcomes, outcomes.

How do we earn MILLIONS in revenue this year? How do we earn MILLIONS so we can give you a few HUNDREDS. And a little gift at Christmas for being so good all year. Capitalist Santa has kept a list.

Oh, Santa has a list. Did you think fast or slow? Did you build atomic habits? How did you measure PRODUCTIVITY? Did you help the founder earn MILLIONS in revenue this year?

As I try to learn how to fit into this construct, watch others show up at work in full clown mask and costume (just like me), as I accept that this is likely what the next 25 years of my life looks like, I'm often left humbled and digging into a bag of chips.

The profound realization that I'm a cog in the wheel of shareholder value has launched me into the gentle arms of therapy. Perhaps the only silver lining is that my employer is helping mitigate the problem they created – by paying for my therapy.

Yesterday afternoon one of my work babies asked “can you look into something for me when you have a free minute?”

On autopilot my brain tendered the response “within the chains of capitalism no minute can truly be said to be free.”

Workplace Satire: The Sound of Emails & The Black Hole of Productivity

… So I said, “Two black guys did it, officer. It’s always one or two black guys, and they all look alike. Just arrest anybody. Common now.” My shitty work life So … I must get this off my chest. My boss gets upset when we don’t go to the office; he will complain to me when my co-worker is not there, and I assume he does the same thing to my co-worker when I’m not there. (why would I expect him…

From 'I Hate Mondays' to 'We Deserve Better': It's Time for Change

We've all said it: 'I hate Mondays.' But have you ever stopped to consider why this sentiment is so universal? It's not just about the day itself. It's about what Monday represents.

Monday is the start of another long week where our time isn't our own. It's the day we trade our freedom for a paycheck, knowing we won't get any real personal time until Saturday rolls around. For many of us, Monday marks the beginning of five days where we're essentially chained to our work, our schedules dictated by someone else's needs.

This isn't just about disliking work. It's about a system that demands the majority of our waking hours, leaving us with precious little time for anything else. We joke about it, saying things like 'living the dream' with a sarcastic eye roll, or counting down the hours until we can go home. But these jokes mask a deeper, more serious issue.

We've normalized a culture where it's expected to spend most of our lives working. The standard 40-hour workweek means that for five days out of seven, our primary focus is our job. We're left with evenings too short and too tired to truly enjoy, and weekends that fly by in a blink.

But here's the thing: it doesn't have to be this way. In an age of unprecedented productivity and technological advancement, why are we still adhering to a work structure established nearly a century ago? Many jobs don't actually require 40 hours a week of our time. So why have we accepted that people should work these long hours just to make ends meet?

Imagine a world where:

- People could earn a living wage working 20-30 hours a week

- We had more time for personal pursuits, family, and rest

- The Sunday night dread and Monday morning blues were a thing of the past

This isn't just a pipe dream. It's a real possibility, but only if we stop accepting the status quo and start demanding change.

So the next time you find yourself joking about hating Mondays or counting down to Friday, pause. Ask yourself: Why am I accepting this as normal? Why are we, as a society, okay with spending the majority of our lives waiting for the weekend?

It's time to stop joking and start taking action. We need to challenge this system that values our time so little. We need to push for shorter work weeks, better work-life balance, and wages that allow people to live, not just survive.

Let's turn our Monday morning complaints into a movement for change. Because life's too short to spend it wishing away five days of every week.
