You have drawn a good lot it seems. Tho no matter how pleasant the job, you still create more value for your boss than you get paid back by them… (value extraction for profit lessss goooo)
That’s why it makes me livid when landbastards talk about “passive income”… it’s just extorting money from working ppl (who actually create value) for the “privilege” of having one’s basic needs met
Workers cooperatives typically focus on more than pure profit since the values of the workers and owner are aligned.
These can be broad and intangible goals compared to seeing the money numbers go up and down, like instead of getting laid off in economic hardship, the worker/owners receive a pay cut. Or you might hire more people than there’s work so that everyone can leave a bit earlier.

Oh believe me, I’m well aware. Having a healthy work environment doesn’t change the fact that it gets harder and harder every year to pay rent.

did you start planning your communist revolution yet?
It’s pretty plain for me to see it. I still like my job as well, but I know my company charges clients 3x my hourly wage for an hour of my time.
If you and your co-workers cut out the middle man…
We get sued for breaching the non-compete clause in our contract?
Is there is job that isn’t value extraction for profit?
That is the entire point of hiring someone is to make more profit.
