Just a rant.

I have to say, today has really got me annoyed. Apart from the fact that it was a nice sunny day and did enjoy it. But I am still annoyed. I told myself I wouldn’t do overly negative posts or respond to others in a harsh or negative way, but I seem to have broken that promise today.

Bank not open on time, can see people having a chit chat in the back. No urgency, no notes on the door, no care for the customers waiting. Went to the post office the other day that is supposed to open till half past 5, already closed by quarter past. The same happens in cafes or restaurants, who start shutting well before their time when there are customers about. Then went for an additional evening walk with the missus, all the bins in the park overflowing with rubbish, and rubbish flown to different parts because of it. Like there was some sort of festival. Obviously, councils can’t even afford or bothered to have evening clean up on at least days when its expected for the park or town centre to be accessed more. No thought to it at all, computer says no. Went to a restaurant, one of the shittiest customer service, server mumblings, no thank you no nothing, overpaid what it seems like for a subpar meal.

I know I am just ranting because I have had a disappointing day. But its not one day. And it is not about me having this bad day. It is about the lack of drive and motivation I see in people. It is this public sector mentality I see even within private sector. No one has any pride in their work. They are just doing bare minimum. And by the way, I do not accept the public sector mentality attitude from public sector workers as well, they are being paid via public taxes, they should be more motivated than most to do a great job and have some god damn pride in what they do and deliver.

This attitude really bugs me, and maybe I don’t realise how much it bugs me unless I have these sort of days. When the pot starts boiling over. People don’t even care about going the extra inch let alone a mile. Maybe I spend too much time in Poland and I have picked up their work ethics, but I don’t remember people literally giving up on life this much even a decade ago. Everyone seems like in a “what’s the point attitude”, “give me my UBI”, “its all going to end anyway”, “I don’t get paid for it”, or people look to blame wider system issues to excuse away their lack of personal and social responsibilities. Times are hard, and they become even harder, if as a nation everyone just down tools.

You are not entitled a good life, a safe and clean society, a good economy etc etc. You have to be actively involved and play your part to ensure that is maintained or achieved depending on the current situation of your given society. You may have been wronged but you have to ask yourself how have you wronged yourself.

Maybe on this last part I am being a bit harsh. But like I said before I just don’t like this attitude. Its not my problem. Why should I do it. Bare minimum. Nothing more mentality. And what happens is that in an environment like that people who have drive gets it taken out of them and killed. It is not fair to be passing this on to the future generations. Instead of enabling them to be the best they can be, strive for something more, blackpilling them into oblivion.

Yes, I am only moaning, I am only ranting. And maybe overexaggerating. But I know I am not overly wrong for expecting better standards and drive from any society. Anyway. Rant over. Post muted. And off to bed early.

It was a beautiful day today. If it wasn’t England, I wouldn’t expect much. But because it is, I expect more.
