Whoever came up with the word polyworking deserves to lose teeth, such a genuinely evil thing to think up for genuinely nasty purposes.

Remember when polycrisis was getting use to describe how ecological collapse intercepts with pandemics and inequality. So weird how that got dropped like a rock while this gets trotted out.

Once again (as with “chronoworking”) I am forced to repeat that putting a Greek prefix on a Germanic rootword gives me hyperangst.

Personal branding trends for 2024.

I fucking despise whoever decided that the job search process should be just like finding work in Hollywood, that you already need to be famous and in the top .00000000001% before you even begin your career (oh, and have connections out the wazoo just to work at the local McDonald’s.)

Remember that time the Washington Post gave Bernie Sanders a bunch of Pinocchios for saying that millions of Americans work multiple jobs, because only eight million do, and “millions” implies … more than that?

Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows that nearly 8 million people hold more than one job. But most of those extra jobs are part time, not full time. And the “millions” of people amount to just 5 percent of Americans with jobs. So that means 95 percent of workers are not working two or three jobs “just to survive,” making this a misleading statement.

love working my multiple full-time jobs which I do for fun

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
