[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do they survive if not working?

it's not about not working, it's a about not staying in jobs that have abusive practices (not letting workers call in sick, no leave, working under unsafe conditions) or pay crap. [/quote]

+1. Restaurant workers fired for not coming in while sick. Amazon employees being penalized for using the toilet. Many companies using the pandemic as an excuse to force employees to be available 24/7. I worked for a guy who felt it was acceptable to call me up at 10 am on a Sunday with a task that could take 5+ hours to complete, expecting to me to jump right on it. If I didn’t pick up, he would call again and again. After all, he knew we were all home anyway. And yes, he knew I had a toddler and a baby at home - just didn’t care, it wasn’t his problem. Yet somehow he was shocked and hurt when I found another job and resigned.

Treat your employees like humans instead of “resources” or they will leave. “Be grateful you have a job” doesn’t cut it. Corporations should not have all the power. [/quote]
