Right now, I'd pick physical labour over IT. I'm sick of being attached to a desk 12h a day looking at a screen and making some predatorial company richer.
I'd rather be cleaning up my neighborhood, planting flowers in the park, or working at an animal shelter or the local soup kitchen. Actually making a fucking difference in society.
As much as everyone would rather do meaningful things with their time, communist societies need ditchdiggers too!
Construction and manufacturing takes all types, no experience needed, but I found factory work to be a great motivator to get into IT. Grass is always greener, I suppose
I think the big issue is lack of variance in your work. Human brains need different stimuli. S o if you do only one type of work all the time, you want something different after a while and yearn for another extreme.
Problem is: that runs counter to taylorism.
communist societies need ditchdiggers too!
I gladly dig ditches, if it's not the only thing I do.
I wouldn't have an issue with my field if it wasn't grossly dominated by companies in the banking and commerce sector.
Former ditch digger turned office worker. I miss the ditch digging sometimes. My body never does.
Yeah some people think that in a communist society that they will suddenly do other jobs like working in an animal shelter. Nope if you work in IT now you’d still be in IT under communism. The commune still needs to keep their IT infrastructure running and the people with IT skills get assigned to do that.
I honestly just wish the capitalist number min-maxing to keep shareholders happy would finally stop. In the last 8 years the time I spent doing "accounting work" has increased from 10% of my total to almost 50%.
Yeah, some people will need retraining, especially the managerial class. But for the most part, if my country had a peaceful and sudden communist revolution tomorrow, I'd be clocking in on Thursday with the same engineering job and asking what's changing now that we're under new management.
That's the problem with all politics. People don't like the status quo and so vote for "not this" without considering the ill effects of what they're voting for, or historical precedent. It's how we ended up with Trump twice, it's how we ended up with Brexit, and it's not going away any time soon.
Young Capitalist Trying To Prove He Isn't Above Physical Labor Gets Ghosted In 250 Job Applications
You claim you're not a capitalist, and yet you use upper-case letters at the start of every sentence.
Imagine living in a world where your value as a person isn't tied to how physically exploitable you are.
Hey now! Under capitalism, your value as a person is tied to how aggressively you exploit others.
Guys, they are Communists, not Amish.
