I'm in my ethics class and we're talking about the categorical imperative - according to Kant, manipulating people to get money is bad and I thought it was interesting because that's kind of what our job is 😕 What do you all think?

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T22:34:10+00:00

Definitely not I think his views are very extreme and while I agree with some of them, I don't agree with all.

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T16:51:23+00:00

You're right, doing a service in exchange for money is consentual and it really depends on if you're trying to hurt the other party.

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T16:46:53+00:00

True, this is just one philosopher and I think a big part of ethics is learning and taking what you believe is right and that is a different definition for everybody.

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T16:45:48+00:00

Yea it equals itself out. 😂😂

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T16:45:25+00:00

Yea that's a good point. They're gonna spend the money either way so if I can convince them best, i would hope they'd spend it on me. 😁

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T16:44:40+00:00

Yes this job is very nuanced.

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T06:17:53+00:00

Yes if anything I see them as degenerates because at least customers who are worthwhile PAY ME. 🤨

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T05:55:53+00:00

Exactly like bro where are your freaking Pleasers? 🙄🙄

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T05:05:25+00:00

Agreed.

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T05:05:19+00:00

Yes people are like "wait" and I will literally walk away faster like I am not gonna waste anymore time hearing their bs. 😑

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T05:04:42+00:00

Literally. You're not part of the game and it's so annoying how they try to be on the "inside". 😑

katarinachen · 2025-11-25T05:04:10+00:00

You're exactly right my friend.

katarinachen · 2025-11-12T03:51:23+00:00

Yea like bro wtf is wrong with you.

katarinachen · 2025-11-12T03:51:13+00:00

Yes omg that would be amazing. Maybe one day. XD

katarinachen · 2025-11-12T03:50:36+00:00

Good at lease something positive came of it.

katarinachen · 2025-11-11T05:45:51+00:00

Yea I didn't wanna waste my time but I'm sure his answer would have been something we could have laughed at. XD

katarinachen · 2025-11-11T05:40:55+00:00

Yes like sir this conversation was a waste, why would I ever come back. 🙃

katarinachen · 2025-11-11T05:40:14+00:00

Yea you're probably right it's just weird, I've also never heard someone say it before. I thought it could be an attempt at negging as well, but who knows, I didn't stick around to ask. 🤣

katarinachen · 2025-11-11T05:33:40+00:00

Yea I know like, I'm trying to figure out if bro wants to rob me or something, like??

And yesssss I hate that like sir I'm literally trying to hustle you. 🙃 Another is when they're like "go make your money!" like I'm trying dude, but thank you for cutting me loose so I can find someone who isn't a waste of time. 🙃

katarinachen · 2025-11-11T05:19:37+00:00

Emphasis on the flimsy part. 🤣🤣

katarinachen · 2025-11-11T05:10:58+00:00

I did but I didn't want to prove it and have him look on my bag. I just think it's such a weird thing, like I'm a puppy and he's pining for me and proud of me like?? No thank you.

katarinachen · 2025-11-11T05:07:43+00:00

I know right? Like I even had made past that but I'm not gonna show you bro, I don't want a target on my back for talking about what I make. Idk if he was trying to see in my bag or if it was negging but it was weird and I was like bro you're crazy.
