I agree with this with one exception - if you're in admin or clerical customer facing roles where the stuff you do is actually life changing for people.

I almost got deported because some cunt at the uni couldn't be arsed to send one email of a document she got by clicking one button for a whole year despite the fact I rang every day for like two months and visited the offices for a goddamn week.

Another example is healthcare. If you're some piece of shit receptionist who can do fuck all and instead of sympathising - and just trying at all - you act all smug about how you can't even do me the decency of telling me which fucking department I need to talk to when I can't get the result of a fucking piss test I need for life-changing surgery.

Surgery that I have been on a waiting list for for 7 years, surgery hat I have bad scheduled months ago that I have done everything for months ago, that's now in a week and all of that is now under threat of being postponed many more months because you can't fucking ring a phone number? Because you can't be arsed and you'll "let me know if there's anything further" in 15-30 working days? And you, despite working this job, can't possibly know how long it usually even takes? Literally refuse to even give an estimate?

I will make your day hell because I hate you - not just the company - but you as a human being, fuck you and find another fucking job, your failure in life is no excuse to fuck mine up too.

Especially when I know I'll come back tomorrow and someone with a fucking brain is going to sort it out for me, so it was never some "policy", it was you and your lack of effort when human lives are on the fucking line. Wouldn't piss on you if you was on fire, you living piece of evidence that some people are just plain inferior and why some people don't deserve welfare and security because they can't do anything unless you threaten them with not being able to eat the next fucking day.

God, sorry, all this shit was years ago but it boils my blood to this day that some fucknuggets could've destroyed my entire amazing life for literally no other reason than the fact they have no life worth living and choose to make everyone else's a living nightmare.

I think the pain will heal once all this shit is replaced by a nice LLM integration. And communism too, fuck capitalism and decay in public services.

Actually in a better world I'd gladly pay taxes so these actual fucking untermenschen stay home and rot or whatever it is they do, so the rest of us can get on with life. They already mooch off my taxes, the least they can do is get out of the fucking way.
