These are juggernauts. They have been set in motion like a freight train where not even the engineers can slow it down or change its direction. It powers toward profit directed by a set of Corporate Minutes which makes it illegal for corporate directors to do anything other than put the financial interests of the corporation first. Not even a CEO could get in its way. They become an entity unto their own. Germany found success by limiting their corporations. They realized that the economy performs exponentially better with a multitude of smaller companies than with a handful of juggernauts. So they developed Rhine Capitalism, where when a corporation is looking too big for its britches, the government builds another corporation to compete against it and then sells off the shares to the private sector. They regulate and tax corporations heavily and i suspect they would do more to limit…

Went to work and got asked to do stuff!
So I went to work – my boss is awful he’s in charge and has work experience. He gets paid more to make sure people like me do our jobs. He’s such a dick cause he’s always telling everyone what they have to do. I think it’s bullshit that someone like a boss can tell me what to do. Im I not entitled to just show up and get paid? Why do bosses even get paid more? Just cause they have work experience and more responsibilities is a bullshit reason. I’ve had this job for almost a month and I should get paid the same as my boss, we both have to work full time. Why don’t I get paid for my commute to work – not cool. It’s definitely something that should be law. Works is a waste of my time and I want to sue my company for…
As the title states I’m in the process of starting a business in the beginning I will not have employees but at some point hopefully I will. I already plan on paying significantly more then most other companies who do the same thing ( commercial cleaning) but I want people to enjoy working for me and have a feeling they would have a stake in the company being successful. I have worked for other company’s and I know what I would want but I’d like to hear some ideas from everyone here. We are obviously not going to be a huge company in the beginning so what could we do even if we can’t afford to do a lot? I’m thinking incentives and pizza parties in the clock so everyone is still getting money while having a nice dinner yearly profit bonuses when feasible. I know this may seem a…

Conversation my wife had.
My wife has a decent job but has recently started exploring other opportunities. I guess while discussing this, her friend who owns a restaurant mentioned that she's always looking for cashiers. Wife: I asked her what the pay was and she $7.25 an hour! Me: Well now you know why she's hiring cashiers. I can't believe any place would offer that kind of pay in 2023
“Employee at will” a poem
I used to work and try real hard, The extra mile the extra yard, Overtime and work through breaks, I gave gave gave, they take take take, Then one day my badge won’t scan, 19 years no other plans , They cut me loose, no severance pay, No explanation, just go away, To this day I don’t know still, HR just says “employee at will”
