It really is a problem that is unique to the US. So if you encounter a lot of us US folk that are angry and jaded due to work, that’s why lmao. The protections and time off that Europeans receive is leagues better than anything here. Europe is definitely something we’ve personally considered for the future.

That might have been an issue. I actually know a lot of people from the US, but because I lived near military bases or international schools. But those are probably not people stuggeling. I don’t have actual insight into the mood of the country or any personal expirence.
But going by this thread and comment chain, working conditions, even in sought of sectors like IT, are apperently exploited quite badly in the US. More than I could have imagined. I was not trying to mock people that just want to get by.
Still, it seems very sad that this is apperently a reality so many Americans have to deal with, even in IT. You desperately need better labour protection laws in generals. And unions.
It’s honestly like a pressure cooker sometimes. That’s why strikes are happening so much more often in the US. The attitude towards corporations here is rightfully really pessimistic because of the mass layoffs, the rising prices of rent and everything else, poor employment environments, etc. We’re facing the brunt of late capitalism.
That all sounds very dire, indeed. Not sure what to say.
Come to Europe? .
