On the real though work wouldn’t be so sucky if you were allowed to share in the prosperity. Work sucks when you’re just another commodity. Work would be fine if you were allowed to take rightful ownership of what you do. Take when I was prepping fish. It’s hard to believe but the fish I prepped alone made the restaurant over $10,000 a day in PROFIT (not net but over the bulk cost of the fish). One butterflied steak of mahi was $20 on the plate. They cost the restaurant like two bucks a piece frozen. I thawed them and butterflied them then the line cook baked or grilled it and plated it. The waitres served it. We went through 40 lbs a day. That $1600 in JUST MAHI (dolphin fish). I also did 7 other items. If it were a collective democratic cooperative after ALL expenses $500 a day would’ve still been a lowball. That’s over $100,000 on a 4 day week. Think about it. There’s no ****ing excuse for people making $70-$100 bucks a day (or less). It’s ****ing madness.
