Pyramid Schemes are required to disclose potential earnings, legit jobs are not

let that sink in. A literal scam is required by the FTC to disclose income (Income disclosure statement), but so called legitimate jobs are not. Honestly, it should be a nation wide law that job postings have to post starting pay.

Do alot of people not know about the INTEREST on student debt? Medical debt shouldn’t even be a concept. still doesn’t stop them from comparing it to student loans.

There’s are huge workforce shortages right now and employers are reacting by working their employees harder and not showing them how essential and valuable they are.

You’d think they’d treat their employees like gold so as not to lose even more. When it was east to find a job, employers were like, “Pfft, good luck finding better somewhere else.” You’d think they’d get with the times and say, “oh shit, sorry. What can I get you so you’ll stay? More money? More flexible hours? If you leave, we’re boned.” I guess their misplaced feeling of entitlement and superiority is hard to shake. I’ll say it in their language: they better learn that treating their employees right is profitable soon because this is hurting their bottom line.

just because its not “high skill” labor doesnt mean its not “hard labor”

let me just say, i was a starbucks barista for 4 years. i really pushed myself too, i wanted to get promoted. i came home after being awake since 3am and just slept away the rest of the day because i was so unbelievably tired. being on your feet, running around, dealing with karens, having to clean every inch of the store of the store frequently, having a drive thru line down to the end of the street and having to have someones order out in less than a minute all while being understaffed is harder than you think. ive seen people quit after a week from being miserable. but today i saw some asshole on the internet say “if you want more money than dont be a barista” as if this doesnt completely disregard the fact that people still need to do that job and survive. not everyone has…
