I’d love for someone to just once elaborate on this.
What does it mean to work harder? More hours? Work harder at my current job?
Most people would not be allowed to work at their job for more hours due to overtime limits. Some jobs won’t let people work a second job.
If I work harder at my current job, what’s going to happen? Will they be grateful and just pay me more or will they create a position to promote me?
I don’t get what that means.
It means get off your lazy ass and quit that dead end job. Start your own business selling chia underwear. You can't afford the startup costs? Just get a couple mil loan from your dad.
Man I've got all this chia underwear, is that what I'm supposed to be doing with it?
You wanna know the real answer? Take advantage of others. Cheat, steal, lie, do whatever it takes to get ahead.
Once you have money, you immediately become one of the 'hard workers.' Without it, you'll always be seen as a lazy bum who only has themselves to blame for their position in life.
Lie, cheat, steal, kill, win, win... everybody doing it

This song was wild live.
Individualizing structural problems is rich people's favorite move
Funniest thing is, probably anyone making minimum wage is working harder than woopi shitberg ever has
I'm a high-school teacher in Italy, if I wanted to work a second I would have to ask my principal for permission (and there are lota of jobs that are forbidden, anyway). If I wanted to work more at my high-school job, those activities would be paid next year, if I'm lucky.
What kind of jobs are forbidden?
People who say it don't get what it means, because people who actually work hard don't say it, and people who say it don't work hard.
Duh. If you aren't a multimillionaire with an EGOT, you obviously don't work hard.
It means giving up your life for a corporation who will never even know your name beyond a number on a computer.
