i just learned (on Lemmy) that Americans basically don't get raises annually. 1 or 2% raise apparently is the burn. so 40% work in a work day sounds way too much for me. good job, American workers. those fuckers don't deserve your labor even at 40%. keep slacking, i say.
I wish. That person has never seen what blue collar workers go through. In food service for example, and I literally cannot stress this enough, YOU WILL NOT GET A BREAK. Their favorite phrase is, "If you have time to lean, you have time to clean." This is because there will be exactly one chair in the manager's office, so that no one is allowed to sit for their entire shift, except the manager.
They get pissy if you ask for your federally required 15 minute break or your 30 minute lunch. This is doubly true for wait staff or delivery drivers. In fact I have been told by multiple bosses at delivery jobs that if I try to take a break at the store, I will be fired.
The rule of thumb over here seems to be, "the less you are paid, the more you WILL work."
every time i hear anything about the US it becomes even more unbelievable that there are no guillotines in the streets "just in case".
It's because the ruling class created the biggest, most successful gang of slave hunters in human history, armed them to the teeth, and gave them immunity from prosecution. Anyone that does try to wrest some power back from the ruling class, historically, gets shot.
Yeah but they still spend most of their lives in a place they don’t want to be in, while being prideful about how hard they work compared to all other nations
