    What an outrageous take. I am making an exchange that makes me happier. I get something; they get something. Otherwise I sit and wait and fume and get nothing.

    I can want one thing and accept that my current reality won’t provide it to me without being an enemy of the cause. I’m genuinely shocked that such a hardline, absolutist mindset is the prevalent one in this community.

      Unless you’re one of the very few people who’s pay has been even close to keeping up with inflation, they’ve already taken more from you, and you haven’t gotten shit in return. Don’t give up more for no reason just in the name of “compromise”. The bare minimum is wage increases and better work life balance
