Comment on Bernie Sanders unveils 32-hour workweek bill
just_change_it@lemmy.world 3 months agoThere are 40,134 people employed in the Nuclear Power industry in the US as of 2023.
In February 2024, the U.S. civilian labor force was ~167,430,000 people.
Yeah, let’s scrap the whole thing for 00.024%
I also feel VERY safe knowing that our nuclear plants are staffed by people working 12+ hour shifts, there’s no way anyone is tired or would make mistakes towards the end of those shifts at all. Gotta keep that status quo of keeping our nuclear workers from being able to see their families… or just hire a 3rd shift and cut the bullshit.

I never said scrap it. I actually support it. I just don’t want to be paid less and I’m mostly wondering aloud about potential effects on my industry.
You should feel safe since this is the safest work environment I’ve ever been in with the highest quality of work I’ve ever had the pleasure of being around. Everyone wants to be here and takes it very seriously. If someone obviously doesn’t want to be in this field or doesn’t take it seriously, then it’s extremely easy to get rid of them.
