Thoughts on the new Amazon 15/hr Ad?
I can't find the ad but I'm sure you've seen it. Do you think it is a push in the right direction or them just trying to make it seem like they are good? https://www.aboutamazon.com/about-us/our-commitment-to-amazon-employees Edit 1: I'm not supporting Amazon, I'm just curious on people's thoughts Edit 2: why am I being down voted?
Or is this like a meme scenario? If it’s really happening, I am utterly stunned.
I works and administrative job in California from 2013 to 2016. I was expected to work at a specific station during regular hours, so a shift. But my employer didn’t want to have to deal with taxes and insurance, so insisted that she hire me only as a contractor even though I wasn’t a contractor. How’s the statute of limitations past for me to finally complain about this to the department of labor?
I see posts from this subreddit in /All frequently, and I generally like what you have to say. A recent episode of one of my favorite podcasts, Blocked and Reported with Katie Herzog and Jesse Singal, had a segment about some Fox News interview with an antiwork mod named Doreen that seemed to paint this sub in an unfavorable light.

David’s Bridal $11/hr
David's Bridal overstaffs their shifts on purpose “in case someone gets sick or quits” but when we all get dressed in their strict dress code and drive all the way into work, we are told to leave because they over scheduled. So I don't even get my $11/hr. Our commissions on sales sometimes go to other people because of management favoritism and because management fosters a sense of competition to make staff climb over each other to claim a sale
