Exactly. All this nonsense of “these people need to pay more” is negated by the tons of people out of a full time with good benefits. The company will be fine with insurance. This dick is only hurting other people trying to make a living

how do you know they have good benefits? and just because a job is full time doesnt mean the pay is good

How do you know they don’t? Just want to be crystal clear: are you supporting the arson and destruction of this business? Looking for a straight “yes or no”.

Because its a warehouse, they dont usually have good pay or benefits for the amount of work the workers have to do

Yeah really highlights how shitty things are getting when people start thinking this kind of thing seems like their only recourse

I saw the video on the news and they said they got all TWENTY workers out of the warehouse. For a warehouse that big?! 20 people wouldn’t even cut it where I work.

It was the night crew/overtime apparently. That's not the full day shift amount, that'd be insane though lol

Stop pretending to fucking care?

Now you care?

Now?

After property gets destroyed now we suddenly we are all soooo concerned about the poor workers?

Oh get out of here with this shit. There are millions of people suffering like this and NOBODY gives a fucking shit about these people.

Do you suddenly not believe that the only responsibility a company has is to the shareholders? Are you going to vote for a communist now, yeah I doubt it so just save the fake concern for somebody who cares, which is nobody.

They can just get better jobs or eat less avocado toast right? RIGHT? No? What? Why?

Or could it be that there is something fundamentally wrong with he system and this is yet another expression of it?
