As Hurricane Milton prepares to circumcise the United States, please remember your job isn't worth it. If your area is under an evacuation order, please evacuate, even if your shitty job is telling you to stay and show up for work. Please stay safe.

The US is terrible with labor laws, by design. It's absurd, especially immediately after civic when all these"essential workers" were called "heroes" but weren't compensated as such. And when nobody was applying for jobs that were paid trash and got shit on by management and customers should the only reaction was "nobody wants to work anymore".
No, people wanna work. They just don't want to be paid minimum wage for skilled positions and spend half the day being berated
Companies make jobs as awful as possible, cry about how nobody wants to work and at least here say "this is why we need immigrantion".
I don't deny that many places do, but also, not wanting to pay union wage or even livable one is a reason to bring someone in who've they've already beaten into thinking living on half-wages is okay.
