Nobody wants to work anymore!
(when the fuck did people actually want to work?)
Some time ago people merged contributing to society and being productive with work.
Work is doing something for money, but there are things I would do for free if I didnโt need to earn money to survive.
Teaching, community gardens, organizing social events. These are all things Iโd love to do but I have to work like 50 hours a week to survive and safe for the future.
"ToO DarnEd LaZY!"
I especially enjoy the 1979 citation there > "Nobody wants to work anymore." - disgusted businessman
