Don’t join the fucking right wing SDA though, they are to blame for half the shit that’s going on currently. Join RAFFWU.

The SDA is thoroughly captured.

I’d love to see that kind of bullshit being applied on the c-level, but no, it’s always the actual workers who aren’t being efficient

Must be hard making record profits while hiking prices and having to deal with actual employees. Poor foolworths…

How much to have management dragged out and shot? Asking for a friend

As a long time worker of many different jobs, slacking off is the most important part of the job. Even if you like the job. All this will do is burn out all their employees faster than normal and make productivity suffer for the whole company. I’ve worked for a lot of small companies and penny pinching is the easiest way to lose a lot of money in the long run.

Hence in the upcoming election preference LNP/ALP last. The C-class of these companies will coordinate with these political parties to reduce the influence of employees in the workplace, so they can exploit the excess productivity for there own personal gain.

Just make sure you put Labor ahead of the LNP and cooker parties since they will be objectively worse. But otherwise, agreed.
AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 8 months ago
Though put the Greens ahead of Labor. Labor losing seats to the Greens, and having to depend on the Greens to govern, is a realistic possibility, and Greens MPs holding their feet to the fire could provide a counterbalance to the revolving door to corporate Australia.

We have preferential voting for a reason (except for literal Nazis), the major parties should always be last on everyone’s ballot.
It should be;
- Someone I agree with
- Someone I agree with on a lot of issues but not quite everything.
- ditto
- ditto
- Greens, unless the candidate is a complete hippy fucktard that doesn’t know how economics works.
- Shit Lite party
- Shit party.
- Yellow Shitstain
- Literal Nazis.

Good way to get your employees to quit

Going to such extreme is probably costing the company of medium/long term.
This is bad for employees physical and mental well-being. This is obviously increasing injuries and burnout. Meaning more sick leave, worse employee turnover.

Seems to be working for Amazon, unfortunately.

Amazon has incredibly high turnover. They’re starting to worry that they’re burning through everyone who is willing to work for them.

I honestly didn’t know Woolworths was even still around
Fetus@lemmy.world 8 months ago
If you’re from the US, it isn’t. The Woolworth part of the company was closed and they focussed on sporting goods, whatever is left of the company is now called Foot Locker.
“Woolworths supermarkets in Australia and New Zealand are operated by Australia’s largest retail company, Woolworths Group, a separate company with no historical links to the F. W. Woolworth Company or Foot Locker, Inc.”

Oh good, someone finally built the Torment Nexus. I was so worried that the title “Don’t Build the Torment Nexus” would have put them off of it.
