On the one side, the salary slaves are having to go far beyond their forty hour work weeks just to keep treading water.

Someone has to get things done. Housing should’ve been priced from the minimum up. Monotony can crush even the brightest spirit. However, many versions of slavery existed, all the way from chattel to strange versions where the slave had rights denied to the "free".

They make you work all day but they don't pay you or let you go.

Businesses that run shifts need shift workers.

The companies she is eyeing simply don’t want a sales person who can’t or won’t also do the necessary behind-the-scenes work.

Think Uber, but for blowjobs. Be happy.”. I love my job for the most part. Calling yourself a slave working a 9-5 job in a developed nation with no real fear for your life is disgusting. So, make it your mission to find relief, or find the door.

If you’re feeling super resentful about having to answer to anyone, it may be a clear indicator that you’re meant to be your own boss.

Or at least I hope you wouldn’t. But we will have a generation (or 2 or 3) who are still affected by the old paradigm in the meantime. I see more people saying it in a literal meaning then as a hyperbole as well, but that’s anecdodal evidence hence the opinion part of the post. Thank you!

Life’s too short to be stuck in a job (or cubicle) that you hate.

However, don’t be a fool and fall into their salary slavery trap. Ask any white collar professional how many real hours a week she works.

I don’t find many people who complain about this directly, and you don’t hear the drum-beat of “work-life” balance. Slavery is a generic term few people understand. Most people with the 9-5 grind are dying on the inside all day because they're not utilizing anywhere remotely close to their full potential. The job you pick isn’t slavery, though I would say there should be more options in schedules and work from home but an agreement is an agreement.

Love my schedule.

Makes you feel like a real slave.

Nice comment. Crazy hrs, away from home lots. So many of us were raised to a subtle beat (or loud gong) that went something like this, “Get good grades. Sometimes, it’s not about resenting authority at all.

Or maybe even getting disciplined and fired. Maybe they hate something you don’t mind and it could be a win-win for both of you. On the one side, the salary slaves are having to go far beyond their forty hour work weeks just to keep treading water.

Last time I checked, working for free never paid anyone’s bills. Browse Gifs and Pictures from r/Sissy on Reddit. If the Huffington Post ever launches that sideboob vertical, this subreddit will provide all the art they need. This isn’t me saying, “March right in and quit, my friend.” Slow your roll. All communication should be done through alternative dance. We have a tendency to associate slavery with its most brutal, in your face, undeniable form: Chattel Slavery, where people are physically owned by someone else. Period. Then I could fuck 5-9 bitches a day. Try 10, 13, 16, 24, or 72 hours at a time.

This. That said, everything you said here is 100% spot-on. If you perform at a high level on a consistent basis and you strive to go above and beyond the standard expectations of your job requirements you will move up and get promoted.

If you’re weak on the technology or tools that power the paperwork, ask for training, or invest in it yourself.

Empty stomach - one problem, full stomach - million problems''. I just got 4 10s and I agree it is amazing. I lasted a grand total of seven years before I’d flat-out had it. Typically you’re persuaded with a wage increase and the guarantee of a certain amount every pay period. Walk 60 miles a week. Including many weekends. I'm in college but i worked at a Verizon retail store over the summer 40 hours of week and would rather kill myself than do that full time. (How is this different from being under house arrest?) In fact, for some, it’s a formula that ultimately makes them want to crawl out of their own skin or run screaming from that solid desk job (with benefits).

Within about one month the company will start to complain about productivity and start asking you to come in earlier to get things rolling faster and then they’ll expect you to leave work later in order to complete more work throughout the day. Fairly sure slavery's hours are a lot longer than 9-5. My current job is 9:30-6:30.

They were given a monthly “allowance” of food. Seems like the latter with the link you posted, but wasn’t sure .

It's like people who say that's abuse but you told them to shut up when you just met them. Or the time you spend taking the day’s frustrations out on your family and the people you love. Hint: 5 of the apps I use every day are totally free! All Rights Reserved. Many people can’t accept the idea that 9–5 jobs are a form of slavery because they immediately think of this when they hear that word….

OK. The reward for obedience is supposed to be a standard three to four percent raise each year, and maybe a change to your title every few years. By a few years in, I’d had enough. You’re welcome. Something is seriously wrong if you can't afford an apartment on minimum wage.....oh wait that's most of the country. “Other people had it worse so your struggles don’t matter”. Get my 40 hours in Monday-Thursday and have Fri-Sun off every weekend. Not disgusting but the over use is annoying. Use care with this approach, of course. Do this over the span of a forty year career and you can look forward to a retirement free from abject poverty. Next thing you know, you’ve become a 6 to 9 employee working 15 hour day ( 7 more than you were while you were working 9 to 5) and all the extra time you’re working is uncompensated for. Porn star. When I was working a “nine to five” my day really looked like this: Get up at 7:30 AM. Even that one extra hour that’s somehow disappeared between my parents’ generation and mine would make a difference in my happiness. Matt, I wish this attitude was universal, but unfortunately it hasn’t spread fully beyond the startup/IT/technology world. People still end up dying from poverty-related causes if they don’t work.

The 9 to 5 Job is Dead. In reality, that’s a twelve hour day, assuming I don’t get held late or have to put in a few more hours from home. the 4/10 schedule is a complete game changer. Working 9-5 leaves me with 7 hours after work to pursue things I enjoy, with money! I average 90k per year in Ontario, Canada. 9 to 5 jobs are going extinct. Yes, 9-to-5 is dead, has been for a long time.

Now, I’m a geek and I leverage personal kanban and mind mapping to organize my life, but in my world — work and life bleed into each other, so it’s good to recognize that I have things to do for life as well as work and I visualize together.

I usually leave on time, and with an hour-long commute, I’m rarely home before 8.

It feels like these young kids don’t understand it at all compared just 10 years ago. The hours are more likely to be ten, eleven, or twelve hours a day. Sooo cool. For some who aren’t cut out for traditional jobs, it’s the endless sea of desks that makes them want to run screaming from the building.

It’s a super old right wing talking point that’s basically just apathy. On it!”). This is the essence of salary slavery. r/AskReddit is the place to ask and answer thought-provoking questions. But none of those terms for slavery come even close to a person working a 9-2-5 in a developed nation.

Tweet Dirty to Me: The 24 Sexiest Twitter Accounts. I was thinking, is it commonly possible for these long hour jobs (more specifically in accounting) to come in early and work from like 7 to 5?

It won’t always be in the form of cash, but you’ll see a return on the effort and time you’ve invested in your work. It’s not consistent across the board, but I’m seeing more of my contemporaries who are in the position of leadership now lean more towards the, “I don’t care the amount of time you work, just meet the commitments that you make.” This mindset really puts a lot on any of us that are doing the work, including the leaders in the org — you have to know the size of your “work” bucket compared to the time we spend on everything else.
