    It’s the life that all these corporations want their workers to be forced to live. In their eyes, if you’re not producing value for the one on top, you should either be sleeping or dead. Oh, and they’ll only be paying you for 8 of those 18 hours you’ll be working, at the lowest possible rate they can, if you get the luxury of payment at all. If you’re a prisoner, tough luck.

      i had an HR person who kept saying their “wages are competative” as if that was something to brag about. you are saying you pay the lowest possible pay that still brings in employee. loved leaving that job after a decade, told that HR person to go fuck herself when she tried to talk to me my last day.

      Prisoners get paid. It’s like $0.08 an hour or some shit, but they get paid. And the funds are used exclusively to buy temporary products like toothpaste, and deodorant.
