A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Scenario 1:

  • 2 bedroom apartment. $2000 a month.
  • I pay $1000 a month.
  • Roommate pays $1000 a month.
  • Split utilities between us both.

Scenario 2:

  • 2 bedroom apartment. $2000 a month.
  • I pay $2000 a month.
  • I buy bed making robot. $15,000-20,000
  • I pay bed making robot subscription. $500+ a month.
  • I pay for all utilities

I can see how Scenario 2 will be much better for me. Sign me up.

Side note: That fucking robot better have a handjob mode.

I mean, if you like getting handjobs from an Indian dude remotely controlling your robot, sure I guess? Though expect it to do that thing where it looks like it shuts down and then starts up again as it goes through a bunch of Indian dudes who see the request and then quit their job on the spot. Just hope you don't get one of the ones that punches you first.
