I Quit and You Should, Too

The American workplace is a petri dish of despondent, beaten down, soul and heartless, empty suits and work clothes. The viruses of materialism and the bacterium of consumerism mingle in the agar of capitalism. Sickness abounds and the workers are willing to be a part of the experiment. In fact, their delusion tells them success is measured on how much mental illness and depravity they can take. Their coworkers, or fellow wage slaves, will remind them everyday not to utter a single complaint or discomfort. Above all, don't DO anything to improve a working condition, they will make sure to tell you how foolish an effort that would be, but be first in line to grab the benefit should, maybe, the request be granted.

This blog is dedicated to those who want to change a lifetime of conditioning from TV, family, society in general that impales you with doubt, alienation, and above all, stress. It is meant for healing the mind first and suggestions of readings and practical actions will be promoted. Next, after realizing your attitude is the correct way to live, is to extend understanding and compassion to your fellow workers, present and future. For a better world we have to change the worksite and it will be one mind at a time. Join the Escaped Wage Slave Movement. Maybe we'll have to work, but we won't let them chain our minds.
