I have been job searching for 6 months now, and I haven’t found a job yet however I might have an opportunity to work in the gambling company a friend of my parents works in.

All this time I never sent applications to gambling companies because fuck working for a company which exploits vulnerable people like that, but I am starting to get desperate and the unemployment boredom has made me depressed.

I am thinking of rejecting the offer, but I wonder, is that just moralism on my part? Would you accept it?

        I mean, it is a job, and you have to survive under capitalism. I would also like to mention that its not like other companies are not exploiting their customers, they are just more indirect about it. At the end of the day, it is your call, however I would like to say that from where I am, so long as you do not say “this is what I will do forever” I see nothing inharently wrong with feeding yourself with this job
