That's defamation, right?
Oh okay. Idk how the libel laws work there
idk 0 hour work weeks are genuinely exploitative imo
it's not fair on the person because they never can make any plans
@PartlyAwesome <:what:382980756139409409>
.... zero hour work week?
well, no one should be desperate enough to have to take a 0 hour work week
On-call
on-call != 0 hour work week
What kind of dumbass signs onto that kind of job?
because they exist, there are unfortunate situations were a person has to take that kind of job
I mean.... at least they got time to continue job hunting
tbh, I've never heard of this before
the answer to 0 hour work weeks isn't communism though, it's stable jobs.
It's also not govt interference.
Hell, it's probably caused by your minimum wage laws, tbh
probably, but that doesn't mean those aren't shitty too
@PartlyAwesome By minumum wage laws, I meant their existinence
No they're not, if you're economically literate
because i don't think an-cap philosophy will result in good conditions for regular people
flexible contracts are pretty shitty too, agree
This is why economies fail, because bleeding hearts get this idea that we need to legislate rules on how people can work
an-cap philosophy just leads people to working unreasonable hours to support themselves and their families
At my place of work if you can't work on 2 shifts where you said you were available to work you get let go
I'm not talking AnCap philosophy
@Fitzydog european/american economies have done alright since the introduction of various labour laws
This is basic economics
It's fair imo
But flexible working co tracts don't inspire loyalty from employees in my experience
One of the Scandinavian countries doesn't have a minimum wage
that country has ~100% union participation though
and the union for each industry negotiates a wage for everyone
Oof, that sucks
"mUh BaSiC eCoNoMiCs" idk i'm pretty sure every first world country has a minimum wage law, it's not vital to remove them
what I'm trying to explain to you, is thst you keep voting in your own freaking problems
i think actually the retarded working conditions developing are from importing millions of low skill workers
and the decimation of western manufacturing
if your business can't survive without employing people reliably, then your business deserves to fail
