• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dollar Stores: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Inflation means a dollar doesn’t go as far as it used to. You don’t see five-and-dimes or penny candy any more either.

  Some things are still exactly a dollar, but often they have far less product in them. For example, a roll of tape with only a third as much tape on it as a full roll at other stores.

  Given the community, I’m guessing it’s eating the rich.

  Is there no union?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pharmacy staff from Walgreens, CVS say they’re at a breaking point — here’s what their days look like⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but that costs money, and relieving employee stress and customer satisfaction doesn’t make measurable money, so it won’t happen until it’s forced

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Wildly more expensive': Workers with in-office jobs spend about $31/day that they wouldn't working from home — here's what employers need to do⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Boston does have the MBTA.

  Although hospitals run 24/7, and the T doesn’t. And even when it’s running, sometimes it isn’t, because there’s a train broken down. Or on fire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What the hell is this shit? Instead of pushing for the return to traditional pensions, capitalism is celebrating the idea that Millennials & Gen Z may simply never be able to stop working.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If you were white, sure. Less likely otherwise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amid financial stress, workers are asking for emergency savings accounts as a job benefit, survey finds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If your company can’t handle planned absences, it sure as hell can’t handle unplanned ones, like when you get sick.

  Yes, I know most companies don’t staff properly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amid financial stress, workers are asking for emergency savings accounts as a job benefit, survey finds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, it probably wouldn’t be under the company’s control. My company goes through Fidelity for the retirement account, for example. Even if I leave the company I still have access.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amid financial stress, workers are asking for emergency savings accounts as a job benefit, survey finds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Get paid more and you can afford to take time off unpaid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amid financial stress, workers are asking for emergency savings accounts as a job benefit, survey finds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless this is pretax money, I only see downsides to this versus just opening a regular account at your bank yourself and using your direct deposit allocations.

  I think that’s a you thing.

  I’m not aware of any clients that do that, but you can use an RSS reader: lemmy.world/feeds/c/askculinary.xml

  I think Cloudflare might be having problems. It might go back to normal soon.

  Really? That seems weird. I feel like they should live with the post, not the author.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An admin deleted all my uploads and I have no clue why⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Ask the admins of lemm.ee, not lemmy.world

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bosses and workers still can’t agree on whether the commute is part of the work day, and it’s creating a $578 billion productivity problem⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Pre-shift prep time is paid. At my last shift job, we were expected to be there and ready before the shift started, but we also got paid for that time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft Montreal's mandatory return-to-office order reportedly leaves staff in "turmoil"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It depends. If there is an employment contract, then it would probably be a violation of that contract. But if there is no contract, then they can lay off employees for any reason not protected by law, or no reason at all.

  Correct, there was not. For example, see the case of Zenger and the New York Weekly Journal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a recommended way to post a lot of content without flooding "new"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think you’ll actually have the necessary userbase to do that.

  But even if you did, I don’t think you’d get good results. Most people upvote simple, straightforward jokes, not complex satire.

  I’m single and I enjoy the early work because it means I have more time after work to do things with friends (or go to the gym or whatever)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Millions of additional salaried workers could get overtime pay under Biden proposal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If it takes 80h/wk then that means half the work just isn’t going to get done. My personal time is more valuable than any amount of money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Economics: The Family Wage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  BAS and BAH don’t always line up with actual costs. In fact, around bases, landlords will often set rent to exactly what the military pays for BAH, which is usually a bit higher than average rent that isn’t exactly BAH.
