Wondered what would happen if you folded an 8 page zine the other way and it turns out: tall! So I was thinking of tall things to draw and ended up making a bunch of towers!

Working in Retail

ft. the human kids

Jane: On my first day here they said to me, ‘Oh Jane, are you a hard worker?’ It’s been 36 minutes since then, and I’ve already been promoted to manager 8 times.

Rose: I put stock on tables. When someone messes up my display, I go into the back room, scream loudly, do ten jumping jacks, and then come back and fix it.

Jake: When youre as pretty as i am, nobody cares if you dont know how to read!

John: i drive a segway. they call me ‘part blart mart cart’ but i laugh it off. i don’t mind this job! anything’s better than going back to prison!

Roxy: customers r always rude to me. ‘how old r u? where are ur parents? why did u sneeze in my shopping bag?’ my coping mechanism is rigging the intercom to play ‘karkalicious’ for eight hours straight

Jade: i always come half an hour early and bring everyone coffee! it gives them a false sense of security and makes them think im a hard worker. that way nobody questions it when i disappear for my entire shift to play candy crush in the bathroom. im on level 612

Dirk: I don’t like talking to the customers. Or my coworkers, or people in general. Whenever someone asks me for assistance, I tell them, 'Would you excuse me? I cut my foot before, and my shoe is rapidly filling with blood.’

Dave: at my last job the customer asked me how are you and i tried to say doing great and how about you at the same time and ended up saying doing you so i quit. id only been working there for half an hour

this may be an Unpopular Opinion (even on tumblr) but like the 8-hour workday is just Too Gotdamn Long

like even sitting in an office for eight hours a day isn’t particularly pleasant (or healthy, as we are beginning to see) but when we’re talking about doing *actual work* for that same amount time it gets pretty fucking brutal

doing literally *anything* (even leisure activities) for eight hours straight tends to be less than enjoyable but when we’re talking about things like construction, landscaping, factory work, and hell, even foodservice and retail, eight hours is a fucking ETERNITY

i might just be a lazy weak-willed bitch but honestly i think i’m not entirely wrong

[tyrannosaurus-rex]

this was being worked towards by leftist labor unions way back in the day after the time of FDRs new deal. people in the 40s and 50s were already starting to realize that we no longer actually needed an 8 hour work day or even a 5 day work week.

even with the comparatively primitive factory tech of the time we were already creating a huge amount of excess production back then and companies were making massive amounts of profit. So it already stood to reason that companies should either let their employees work less and thus each employee could work a shorter shift without lowering the yearly compensation of each employee, or in cases where businesses provide an active service they would shorten the shift but hire more people to cover the necessary operating time. but of course that would mean less money for people at the top so companies fought back hard and we ended up with nixon’s bullshit and so on and now its considered the norm for us to spend the vast majority of our lives doing work that really just amounts to waste.

The IWW realised this and were fighting for it all the way back in the 1930s. This is a take with a lot of historical and theoretical grounding, OP, so you’re standing in good stead.

I’d also like to add it’s also been studied and scientifically proven that after 6 hours, we have an extremely noticeable drop in productivity. Sweden saw nothing but benefits from a 6-hour work day, including worker productivity, happiness, and half the amount of sick-leave used when applied to nurses.

It ceases to be about production and more about subjugation.
