Nope, he's a leftist. He just feels like a right wing nut.
Hey hey hey now, I'll not have you disparaging the asspullers by suggesting the shitpissers could ever beat them!
in my best Karen voice
Oh he's always been controversial. Constantly tipping over the water bowl, peeing on the bed, chewing up slippers. If you ask me, he should never have been asked to perform at the puppy bowl, but what can you expect from this culture of tabloids and extreme headlines. The 24 hour news cycle demands their clowns, and this is what happens when you let them run amok, you get one of them shitting during the national anthem of all things! I don't know what this country has come to!

It's not being jaded. It's a reality. The employers base interest is creating wealth for the company, the employees base interest is generating income for themselves. These two conditions are fundamentally at odds. That's why we speak about "negotiations" when it comes to wages. We are attempting to balance the two sides. The employer wants the employee to perform the most amount of labor for the smallest possible compensation, the employee wants the largest compensation for the least amount of labor.
I'm not suggesting all employers are bad people, or that there aren't people who are employers who are friends with their employees. I am saying the employer, in their role as employer, is not a friend to the employee. Their interests do not align, and if they did, either you have a masochistic boot licking employee, or an employer who is going to fail and take their business down with them.
My mom ran a successful business for 25 years, was good friends with her employees outside of work, but in her role as the employer occasionally had to do things that went against her nature, by the simple fact that her business needed to survive more than her friendship did.
I ran a successful business for 5 years before illness took it from, and likewise, in my role as employer, I could not make the decisions I wished I could have. Had I known about worker's cooperatives at the time, I likely would have transitioned it to that to save the company when we were no longer able to do the work in the same way. C'est la vie.
This isn't about being jaded, it's about understanding how our economic system works at it's core. A small, but significantly powerful group on one side, a large but mostly powerless group on the other. Each has their own interest, and the balancing act is figuring out how to get the most out of the other.
Employers are not your friends. Employers are people who want you to do as much as possible for as little as possible. Regardless of one's political views, employers are not friends. It is an uneasy alliance at best and an outright war at the best of times. Wanna be friends? Help me unionize this workplace, bro.
My brother had a 3 year gap, and when he applied for his current job (civil service job, even) and they asked about the gap, his response was "I signed an NDA about that, I can tell you in 2052," and just refused to speak further on it. Complete bullshit, but even a job with the US federal government just let it go.
... Fucking really? OMG, that's good to know!
I'm glad to know you've been a considerate lover to Mama. She's had a lot of selfish men in her life, and while I don't love thinking about her sex life, at least I know in that one respect she's had someone with some consideration and grace.
My foster brother's middle school had a band called Chicken By Product. Haha
Chicken: Fine, I'll tell you.
Scientists, anxious and excited: yes?
Chicken: ... The rooster. And then he asked for a sandwich and fell asleep before he could eat it.
Are you asking how to express this information in a utilitarian way, as in, how do you convey the information to be understood? Or are you asking how to express it in a poetic way? The use of thither makes me think you're hoping to express this is a jokingly poetic sense.
Holy shit. I wasn't even aware noncompete debated hin, tbh. I dropped out of basically everything for a few years there.
