I was thinking about the McDonalds notification, encouraging their workers to not quit, once their tax returns arrive.
On one hand, they know their employees earn so little that they will likely receive more substantial refunds since they’re technically under the poverty line, they likely also fear the sudden loss of exploitable income if their employees all quit after their tax returns give them a bit of wiggle room for a month or two.
Idea. File your taxes early, this month if possible. Save that tax money, and keep working for whatever fast food or retail joint you may have in a similar situation, and then just quit at the very end of April without the customary 2 weeks notice. Let them feel the pain of their own workplace abuse, just in time for May Day!
This is just an idea. I’d love to see opinions and ideas regarding this tactic, which admittedly is one of convenience, timing, and me just thinking of it.
There may even be pitfalls to this idea, that I don’t currently see. I’d like to hear that as well, for the sake of creating new ideas, for a massive workers walk out. To show the “owners & masters” exactly who is in control, if we desire that.
