China would have no trouble bringing the "Jewnited Slaves of America" to its knees without even firing a shot. All they would have to do is...

I don't believe that the 'right-left' paradigm will last much longer before one of two things happens: a) there is a civil war, or b) a black swan...

as the company lays off salaried workers later this year... and fires the people who wouldn't 'volunteer' to work for free.
From what I understand it's pretty much standard practice among many retailers. They'd be getting free work from the hourly employees, too - if they could. (and they sometimes manage to do just that in various sneaky ways)
Ask anyone who's worked as a starting (and salaried) manager for any big box store - 10 or even 20 hours extra per week isn't so unusual. I think that technically the company is supposed to give that much time off to compensate - but if you're working 50 or 60 hour weeks -- how are you going to take time off?
This was how I remember it working at least as far back as 35 years ago - so this isn't new psychopathic corporate behavior - it's just same ol' same ol'
The workers need to show a little team spirit for " No Pay".
I'm Laughing now..
I think the Company & Management need to show a little TEAM spirit too buy paying their workers a little more over the Good Will season..!!!
Instead of making, say $3.6 mill profit would $3 mill satisfy their lust..
*Yes workers need fair protection...NO PAY will do it.
*A fair Schedule one week prior to start...So workers can tell their family & friends when the scheduled week is over they wont have any money to pay their bills & no Xmass pressies.
Now no pay will really help workers pay for child care & living needs.
Wonder if the Company owners will have the above mentioned problems.
This world is a laugh every minute..!!!
