    Are we “into” it, or are careers just fictional now?

    Trying to stay at the same company for any length of time is a terrible move these days. I think without exception you will always get better pay raises moving to a different company than moving up in the same company. If you’re not just laid off by the hundreds or thousands.

    Young people should be organizing.

    Yes I’m working a gig job as a second job rn. Not because I’m into it or want to (though it is somewhat enjoyable relatively speaking), but because I need the few hundred dollars a month. Same reason I work at all. Not because I’m into it but because I need to.
