A socdem politician came to visit my workplace today. Now, we are severely understaffed and overworked. Today was no exception. Place was packing with clients who had to wait 3 hours to get help. Insane day.
She came in with an entourage accompanied by our directors. It was like the queen herself came to the place. Pictures were taken of her standing at our workplace, looking interested.
She didn’t say a single fucking word to us or our clients. Not one. Not even hello. Absolute 0 sign of respect. Fucking shithead. It was as if she came to see some monkies at the zoo.
I know that feeling. Living in 3rd world - ish public housing and the directors do not look at you, don’t care to know your name, would rather die than go in your apartment. They wear the stupidest most garish clothing to a place where most of us get our clothes from the dumpster/goodwill/sidewalks. They drive BMWs and Mercedes up in here-- who the fuck is making that kind of money managing public housing? One starts to want to put sugar in gas tanks (in Minecraft of course)
My boss is also a socdem. Says all the right things until you try and unionize/organize. One of the fakest people I’ve ever met
Fuck that’s my current situation as I’m organizing my workplace.
To be fair, we have a “union” but our union president is compromised completely
This is why we call them social fascists
Just a photo op, eh?
And just talking to the managers, I see…
