GREAT NEWS!! A pregnant workers fairness act is in effect!

This bill:

“ -prohibits employment practices that discriminate against making reasonable accommodations for qualified employees affected by pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. A qualified employee is an employee or applicant who, with or without reasonable accommodation, can perform the essential functions of the position, with specified exceptions.

Specifically, the bill declares that it is an unlawful employment practice to

fail to make reasonable accommodations to known limitations of such employees unless the accommodation would impose an undue hardship on an entity's business operation;

require a qualified employee affected by such condition to accept an accommodation other than any reasonable accommodation arrived at through an interactive process;

deny employment opportunities based on the need of the entity to make such reasonable accommodations to a qualified employee;

require such employees to take paid or unpaid leave if another reasonable accommodation can be provided; or

take adverse action in terms, conditions, or privileges of employment against a qualified employee requesting or using such reasonable accommodations.”

I'm really wondering how the spoiled brat decision of firing all employees from his inflated social platform is going to play in countries with strong labour laws. Like ok you can fire anyone in the US on short notice and without reason apparently, but in France if you want to get rid of a lot of your employees you're gonna have to prove that the society is borderline bankrupt and fill a lot of papers and offer them money to leave or a training for a new job. And don't even get me started on unions in Germany.

“I think human consciousness is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware. Nature created an aspect of nature, separate from itself. We are creatures that should not exist by natural law. We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self, the accretion of sensory experience and feeling, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody. When in fact, everybody is nobody… I think the honorable thing for our species to do is deny our programming, stop reproducing. Walk hand in hand into extinction one last midnight. Brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.”

- R. Cohle

Lots of people like to parrot that line about how business owners take all the risk and I think they get a pass on it way too often.

Biggest risk an owner takes would in its worst case scenario be equal to the risk the average laborer takes every day by working for someone who could at the drop of a hat remove your source of income by firing you and significantly less risky than the occupational threats to health a significant portion of the working class are subjected to as terms of their employment.

Meanwhile the payout of being a business owner is much higher and scales up effectively infinitely meanwhile the worker gets only whatever they can convince the owner to pay them and tends to stagnate.

Business owners take a miniscule portion of the risk by comparison and reap all the benefits, which of course makes perfect sense if you understand that those benefits come from the labor of the people who work under them, and as a result they are the ones capitalists offload all the risk onto as well.

And the kicker? If the company goes out of business and the owner loses his investment, what do you think happens to the workers? They're just fine and keep working at an empty building? They lose either way. They lose if they get fired and they lose if the owner fails.

Literally double the risk and none of the reward.

ugh i’m so frustrated :(

i was in the comments of a reddit post of a young looking kid working at culver’s. this one bozo said the following, in response to some comment pointing out that 14 was a common age to legally work in many places:

That time should be spent having fun and exploring hobbies. Just being a kid. They will have plenty of time (50+ years, in fact) to work after they graduate. Let kids be kids for fucks sake.

.. fine, at least superficially, but i got my first job at 14 because i didn’t get allowance and i wanted to, you know, explore hobbies and do stuff with friends and whatever. i replied saying as much and you know what this ding dong said to me?

Sorry your parents didn’t love you that must’ve been tough

… and you know, as hurtful as they were trying to be, they actually kinda nailed it.

see, they might have been right about my mom, at least in some way. i lived with her after my parents divorced when i was two. she drunk drove us a lot, until one time we hit ice and went into a ditch, and she died. i don’t think the accident was on purpose, and i’d like to think she loved me as much as a raging alcoholic could, but regardless, at four years old, my home life could definitely be described as “tough”.

so yah, classist privileged redditor, there are kids who’s parents don’t love them, or who’s parents do love them but can’t or won’t give them money for hobbies and extracurricular activities, and those kids might want to get a part time job. i was one of them.

#me #tw: alcoholism #tw: death #ding dongs of reddit #yes my part time cashiering job at the local dry cleaners was basically forced child labor #labor and employment #labor rights #rant #privilege #classism

Privacy Rights in a Remote Work World: Can My Employer Monitor My Activity?

The rise in remote work has brought with it a rise in employee monitoring. Between 2019 and 2021, the percentage of employees working primarily from home tripled. As “productivity paranoia” crept in, employers steadily adopted employee surveillance technologies. This has raised questions about the legal and ethical implications of enhanced monitoring, in some cases prompting proposed…

Job interview tip I got from a tiktok but it's genius:

If you were unemployed for a while, they're going to ask if you can explain the gap in your resume. Unless you were actually doing something cool & relevant, this is hard to answer in a way that makes you sound like a good corporate cog. So here's the best and infallible answer -

No you cannot, because you signed an NDA.

You now sound mysterious, desirable, worldly, experienced. They can't even really ask you more about it! Perfect.

#obviously it is morally correct to lie on job applications/at interviews #level that playing field any way you can #employment #labor #job interview tips
