    Dismantle the system that pays you based on someone else’s interpretation of worth, kids. Remember, all those cashiers were essential during a massive pandemic.

      I agree, but this phrasing implies that the alternative is paying you based on your own interpretation of worth. Poor depressed people.

        the alternative is paying you based on your own interpretation of worth.

        I mean, if that interpretation is rational that’s basically freelancing. Which can be great if you’re skilled and respect yourself!
