Yeah, some people will need retraining, especially the managerial class. But for the most part, if my country had a peaceful and sudden communist revolution tomorrow, I’d be clocking in on Thursday with the same engineering job and asking what’s changing now that we’re under new management.

SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 11 hours agoYeah some people think that in a communist society that they will suddenly do other jobs like working in an animal shelter. Nope if you work in IT now you’d still be in IT under communism. The commune still needs their IT infrastructure running and the people with IT skills get assigned to do that.

I honestly just wish the capitalist number min-maxing to keep shareholders happy would finally stop. In the last 8 years the time I spent doing “accounting work” has increased from 10% of my total to almost 50%.
