Being a factory supervisor isn't a worthless shitbag job.

It sure pays like one lol a bit better than a lot of other jobs an "uneducated" schmuck like me can get I suppose. I think it's just how society views some types of jobs that leaves me feeling worthless.

Yeah well society is an asshole and personally I ignore most of what it says.

You're in a position where you can affect whether the people around you feel like a worthless piece of shit, or like a valuable, appreciated human being. If you're usually doing the latter and trying to avoid the former (and make it right when it does happen) then you're not a worthless piece of shit.

You deserve to receive that too, and I'm sorry that you aren't.

That is actually how I operate, I'm always advocating for the guys I work with and buy them breakfast or something after a push. I always make sure to thank them for their help at the end of the day. It's a bit easier as I work with them as opposed to over them and I think they see that. It helps that I get to point to the office as the "other" that is making life difficult as opposed to being part of it as well lol
