[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of white collar people have this misconception of how stable these service industry jobs are. It’s not like the old days. They have scheduling systems now to ensure max profitability, but also makes employees work less then full time hours (usually so the fewest possible get benefits). And they schedule you on a variety of shifts so you can’t even take a second job to get more hours, or god forbid need consistent child care. Even worse is being in a tipped job since tips are down you end up making minimum wage. The smart, not lazy, move is to stay on unemployment if the wage is even close because it is also consistent and no need to juggle childcare.[/quote] The lack of stability in minimum wage jobs preceded Covid. If these people desire more stability, they can pursue higher education or a trade. Progressives need to stop infantilizing people. [/quote]
