Does anyone else ever feel like not working because they feel like the people where they live are shitty and that working for them feeds the machine of shittiness? (lemmy.ml)

I usually felt this way about the Christian families with lots of children who would come into the restaurant after church and treat everyone rudely and make a huge mess. They did it every Sunday, and it never changed over a period of years. I know they were probably just exhausted and miserable themselves, but lots of exhausted and miserable people out there aren't so entitled, inconsiderate, and rude to workers. Still, it didn't make me feel like not working, I just didn't want to serve those people.
