You know that question of what would you do in a world without capitalism? I think in a world without capitalism, the answer would be the exact same thing I always did: customer service. I actually unironically loved doing tech support, being help desk is such a fulfilling thing for me and I have amazing soft skills. Even the yelly angry people wouldn't deter me. Like I did a decade in the trenches, I'm not just saying this in the theoretical - if capitalism hadn't demanded working conditions be the way they are, I would still be doing the exact same job.
Like I'm disabled, but I'm only unable to work because of the current system, and trust me I tried so hard for years to keep up with the demand for metrics and call times and sales and scripts and Jesus fucking Christ it's a nightmare. But the job itself outside all of that? Loved it. Loved helping people, even and especially angry people at the end of their rope!! I was fucking GOOD at it, too.
Anyway, yeah. After the revolution, i'd go right back to doing help desk. I'd go right back to tech support. I'm a helper.
