My take.

I told a friend that I wasn't creating enough value at a job I was at to pay my salary and he thought that was great: I wasn't getting ripped off the way Karl Marx said workers get ripped off (e.g. I make $1 of value, get paid $0.80, capitalist pockets $0.20)

I told him that no, that I was either going to lose that job, the firm was going to go out of business, I was going to face unbearable stress, somehow it would be end in tears.

If you get perks for a few years but don't pull your own weight, don't develop your skills, and don't have the confidence that you can pull your weight, you will pay the price someday, that's certain.

So what would you have me do given my current situation ?
