Comment on Something something far-left
jerkface@lemmy.ca 22 hours agoWhy should a full-time employer be permitted to pay an employee less than it costs to merely survive? It’s like you WANT to live in a culture where humans are exploited and thrown away when they break.

Because it’s not a full time employment. It’s hourly.

You sounds like you’ve never held a job before and these terms are brand new to you. You’re using them wrong.

You don’t realize how funny that is.
ExtantHuman@lemm.ee 20 hours ago
You still don’t realize how ignorant you come across

Hourly can be fulltime.
listen1377@lemmy.world 20 hours ago
No, fulltime is salaried.

No, you’re a fucking idiot.

You are wrong and have always been wrong. It is based on worked (scheduled hours) in a week. Above a threshold, and it is considered full-time.

I get paid by the hour, 50 years old. And the same job for 20 years. Full time.

If it’s hourly it’s not fulltime. In US at least.
Corn@lemmy.ml 20 hours ago
Fulltime is typically defined as 40 hours a week max, but the threshold is lower for definitions like the ACA.

I’m hourly and make a good living wage, are you implying that hourly means you don’t work full time or should be entitled to a livable wage?
listen1377@lemmy.world 21 hours ago
You are not actually entitled to anything. Nobody owes you anything.
Corn@lemmy.ml 20 hours ago
The workers who are responsible for the continued function of society aren’t owed anything?

If you work 40 hours a week and paid hourly that is full time. You don’t have to be salary to be full time employee.
