Sad, but true
Today during lunch I was talking to my buddy about how I believe unions are good, and more people should trust them. Well long story short before the end of the day I was in HR and fired for discussing union organization and “trying to insight a riot”. Wow I already found a better job, but do I just let it go or?
if it takes me longer to get to work due to traffic ill still expect to be paid for the alotted shift, if you book me from 7-5 you get me from 645, to 715, and i expect to be thanked for that 30 min total of time as a courtesy im providing. ill leave my house at 645 if it takes me an hour to get to work due to traffic i still expect to be paid from 7.
I don't know if this fits into anti work here but sort of fits into the detrimental college/employment relationship most of us are experiencing. I was recently hired for a remote position that requires a background check.

It said back in early 1900s someone made 1000 a year and bought their house for 3000. In the current time you can buy a house for 150k. It's not going to be the greatest but if you made 50k a year that is still the same ratio as back then.
