This is the approach that most workers took in our eastern European countries during socialist era.

It was shitty. Pretty much all services were terrible since people just did the minumum.

I've noticed US going down this path for a few years now and I can't figure out why in the frigging world would you cheer on towards such horrible society.

All the best places I've lived at were great because people cared about the jobs and other work they did.

There’s nothing wrong with caring about your job and what you do. Just don’t buy into any of the horse shit about missions and so on. The bosses are ruthlessly capitalist so it’s immoral to expect the workers to be any less self interested.

At the end of the day your own life will be miserable if everyone is self interested because of those "bosses".

Just with work. Loads of things to do outside of work. I volunteer for example. Feels good.
