Comment on Americans: How the hell do you meet new people or get into relationships after college?
curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 19 hours agoBeing subjected to the whims of clueless adults is miserable.
Sounds exactly like adult life with a job when you phrase it that way.

as an adult you can choose a job where you don’t have to do that.

That is not a choice that everyone can make.

Many people live in towns with fewer than five companies, with poor internet access. Many people have to keep odd schedules because of family care obligations. Many people are functionally illiterate. Many people have criminal convictions. There are a lot of things that can limit your ability to leave a job you already have.
Many people do accept work conditions worse than they have to, but not every worker is flexible enough to choose their work.

If you genuinely believe this (i personally think you’re trolling), then you need to take a step back, look at your situation, and recognize how privileged you are.
A significant amount of problems in the world would be helped by The Privileged recognizing that their life is not representative of the lives of everyone else.
