I get it, do you?
Remember back in the day when the movies, Office Space and Fight Club came out how everyone, how true and felt better that they weren't the only ones who hated their jobs and wanted to run away?It was good. It was nice it made people want to jump up and yell, Hell yeah!
So now 6 or 7 years later we can browse the internet and find various office humor like the video of that guy smashing his computer or funny pictures. What I find more funny is the fact that you can find all these things, these jokes and parodies about working in a cubicle and hating your boss yet no one is doing anything about it. At some point everyone felt like they had the power, that they could get up and walk out (hell I did it I haven't worked in an office for 6 years). It's one of the sad things about society, everyone is great at talking (holding signs, stop the war, protesting and discussing politics) but no one does anything (votes, has any actually knowledge about what is really going on in the world rather than their propagandized information). 6 years ago, for a brief moment, I thought wouldn't it be amazing if everyone who was fend up with their go no where working for a moraless company job got up and left. At first they could fill the gaps with other people desperate for jobs but as the number of people quitting increased sales and productivity would drop, they'd have to do something to get people to work for them (because its a two way street neither employer or employee can function without the other). So they clean up their act give better benefits, better pay and stop raping and pillaging the land and economy.
or we could all just shut up, and keep quiet (hate to make a religious analogy but it's like peter denying he knew Jesus at one of the most crucial moments).
it's why nothing changes because no one is willing to stick their neck out under the assumption that the general population will stand up with them. Would you trust your next door neighbor to push you out of the way of a car if it endangered their life?
we're all selfish at that's just human nature.
