Summary

r/Choosingbeggars You know what the problem is with young people nowadays? They don't have any work ethics, like a willingness to work unpaid labor for free. How selfish! A choosing beggar actually uses that argument in today's video. Not only does she fire her employee for not wanting to work for free, she actually writes an article and posts it online about how terrible workers nowadays don't want to work for free. How deluded can you possibly be?

0:00.0	Welcome to R-slash, a podcast where I read the best posts from across Reddit.
0:04.0	Today's subreddit is R-slash choosing beggars, where free is way too expensive.
0:09.2	This podcast is supported by Anchor FM.
0:11.7	If you've ever thought about starting your own podcast, then check out Anchor FM.
0:15.7	Anchor FM is a free podcast platform that allows you to record and edit your podcast right from
0:21.2	your phone or computer. I really can't recommend these guys enough. This is the podcast platform that
0:26.3	I personally use. Once you set up your podcast, Anchor FM will automatically distribute it to all
0:32.0	other platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and others. It's super easy, super streamlined,
0:37.9	and you can start making money immediately. Download the free Anchor app or go to anchor.fm to get

0:56.5	YouTube, and I firmly believe that video content helped my channel succeed. If you're thinking about
1:02.0	getting into the world of podcasts, I strongly recommend starting with video podcasts because it'll
1:07.2	help you reach a much broader audience. So try out Anchor FM and start publishing your first video
1:12.8	podcast for free. This next post is a web article written by someone named Gabrielle Peterson, and
1:19.7	I genuinely can't believe that this person wrote this and then thought, yeah, this is totally
1:24.9	appropriate. I'm going to put this online commentary on work-life balance. One of work 9-5 could
1:31.6	look building a career. Our careers are a part of our lives, and try as we might, we can't always
1:38.1	leave work at the office any more than we can leave home at home. I recently fired my first ever
1:43.2	direct report, although he was low energy, uninspired, and an awful speller. What ultimately led him to
1:49.9	the act was his insistence on boundaries. He would come into the office at 9 every morning,
1:55.2	leave at 5, and be inaccessible anytime before and after. Regardless of deadlines or passion projects,
