It sucked in the private sector for decades. My employment had never been stable. Workplace culture worsened too. All the perks were purely performative while you have zero job security and discouraged from billing overtime while being slapped with unrealistic deadlines and constant performance metrics turning thinking jobs into factory jobs. |
Its' because they never expected a meaningful raise and were likely treading water. Or they transferred internally from one department to another when their department was threatened with layoffs. It's what my spouse did. Applying for internal jobs when layoffs are looming in a large company and networking within the company to be able to avoid layoffs is the way to stick around longer. Doesn't work if you want to grow upward and not just try to survive with lateral moves, or when a company has a merger and moves offices out of the area. |
For worker bees who do actual grunt work there are jobs. Especially with freezes and limits on foreign workers. Management jobs are much harder to find, and the trend has been to make people work 2 jobs for one salary. |
And since some swaths of the private sector suck we have to make the public sector and all of the rest of the private sector suck too? Seems to me the better solution would be to fix the private sector and elevate the working class to better standards rather than dragging the entire working class down to the same level. |
DOGE is coming next for the private sector; you will all get RIF’d or just fired by DOGE very very soon! |
Triggers them enough to elect a criminal who literally every expert warned would destroy the country, including his own people. That's what's crazy about a person thinking that was worth it to get back at a teacher who uses Mx. |
They have already started raiding independent non-profits, forcefully entering non-federal buildings. https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/president-trump-politics/us-institute-of-peace-doge-trump-administration/3869923/ |
From the party that blocks VAWA reauthorization, sentences rapists to no jail time for fear of ruining their promising future, blah blah blah. Spare me your faux concern. Republicans could not have cared any less about violence against women until trans became an issue. You’re sick. |
This. Only fed workers could put their feet up, and relax — on the clock. |
They’re headed for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac next. |
+1 Dems did not go on and on about that, MAGA did. |
That did not happen to you niece lol. She may have lost a scholarship but not because of that. Nice try though lol |
Long gone are the '50s, 60s, 70s of dad working one job and mom being able to stay at home and having enough to get by on. |
It accomplished nothing other than creating more problems. |
