Working multiple bullshit jobs that pay peanuts to survive? You’re polyworking in order to have multiple revenue streams to sustain your lifestyle. Fulfilling your contractual work obligations? You’re quiet quitting.
Traditionally, people would find a vocation they enjoyed (and that paid a decent wage) and steadily climb the ranks,
No they wouldn’t. They’re fucking ranks. People don’t “GENERALLY” or “TRADITIONALLY” just climb ranks. That’s why they’re RANKS. Most people stay at the bottom or near the fucking bottom
:brainworms:
Instead of everyone hustling for a few management positions, what if we made entry positions liveable?
Its a triangle because the natural progression of human civilization is to climb to the top of the triangle. Climbing triangles is just natural. Triangles are what make the country strong. Without triangles, we wouldn’t have all these amazing things.
You’re only trying to keep me from climbing the triangle because you’re too lazy and stupid to know the secret way to climb it. I won’t let you hold me back. I’m going to keep climbing the triangle until I’m on top, where I’m supposed to be, because triangles reward people who work hard and climb smartly.
Although more financial freedom and the chance to have multiple creative outlets should spell increased happiness for polyworkers, the research shows that’s not necessarily the case.
:surprised-pika:
How out of touch do you have to be to think “creative outlets” is a real reason people work multiple jobs? If you think anything people do in an office job is a creative outlet you must live such a sad, uninspired life
Polywork is when other members of the polycule cover your shift at Arby’s
