Record Number Of Workers Quitting Jobs
"Nobody wants to work anymore..."
"Nobody wants to work FOR YOU anymore."
Pay is so low , the rich get richer....
@@zakjuly6721 and when your burger costs $8, you will complain. These are entry positions.
@@ChaoticBean794 "These are entry positions" is not an excuse and you need to stop shilling for systematic wealth inequality.
@@darthcelsius6393 - Only in your dreams does money fall from government trees.
@@ChaoticBean794 - My auntie served burgers until she died. It"s a desperate position.
If a job can "let you go" for any reason without warning, then you should be able to quit without warning!
Good point!
they definitely dont give you two weeks notice before terminating you either! why would i give a 2 week notice for a job that can careless about me?
PREACH!!!
Absolutely! It's such a one-sided, archaic system.
Not always, with some company policies, if you don't give a full 2 weeks notice, you forfeit your PTO/vacation time.
News: "Theres so many jobs available no one wants to work"
The pay: *$3 and a coupon*
You got that right and yet they call people whiners for refusing such low paying go no where jobs.
@@HimynameisJermHicks I can't wait till this country starts taking things seriously instead of looking for shortcuts
@@gahshjdjd8249 E X A C T L Y.
It's time for a general strike
To be fair though, fast food jobs are so easy a child could do them...
I almost quit my job recently. They constantly treated me like I was replaceable. Put in my two week notice, only for them to beg me to stay. Managed to squeeze a 15% raise outta them to get me to stay. Funny thing is, while they’ve certainly extended my stay, Im going to continue looking for another job, and now that I make more, I can use my higher wage to negotiate better wages elsewhere.
Yes and that’s the way it supposed to be done! Ask for what you feel you deserve , Or ask what you can do to get that amount of benefit, if they refuse go elsewhere!
Start your own business and pay yourself as much as you want
@@tl9819 Exactly, having your own business is wayyy better . I couldn't agree more. Instead of these CEOS of these large companies richer 🤦🏾♂️💯.
Restaurant owners acting like the Atlas elite just to watch it all turn to ash right before their eyes 🔥🍁🏹 not realizing they forged their own downfall
15% 🤣🤣🤣 dude you got screwed big time.
Nothing is more liberating than quitting a job you don't like
More like stop the abuse from Corporate America! Treat an American employee like a human or go out of business in America!!!
Ooh.. Very true
Yeah, omg I have done that and it was amazing lol
As long as you have something lined up.
Right On bro 🤜
Companies: “it’s a free market, if you don’t want to get paid minimum wage then don’t work here”
Companies when no one works for them now:
The free market works both ways...
@@RealMesaMike Free markets don't favor capitalists; and capitalists mostly try to avoid free markets in practice. They like to have absolute power over markets and call that "freedom."
Burger King will be fine dummy. They will have that location back online in a week. The thing about minimum wage workers is they are easy to replace since they don't have to have skill to perform their task. That is why the pay is so low. You will learn.
Companies will get plenty of others. Its a good thing anyway, many people who don't have a job, now have a golden oppertunity. All thanks to the free market for creating new opportunities for people who quit thier job and got something better
@@randybobandy9828 - Exactly! It's shocking how so many people think entry-level positions should pay $20+/hr TO START (lol). As an example, fast food jobs, etc... were never designed to be livable wage jobs. Entry-level positions are for young people, entering the workforce, who have little to no work experience. After a few years, they gain exp and move onwards and upwards, either into a management position or into a higher-skilled job somewhere else. Entry-level positions were never meant to be career positions.
When your business model is to pay employees peanuts and treat them like garbage don't be surprised when they leave.
Here in india civil engineers make less than 3k dollars annually ,even after 5 years of experience , bad coworkers , narcissistic bosses, they're all terrible
applause applause !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would not accept peanuts as pay, i will accept almonds.
@@User_92020 how about cashews?
@@User_92020 Cashew girl myself 🤣
I love seeing corporations suffer, even if it's only minor
Based
me too they are so greedy
You think corporations are suffering lmfao? There was the largest transfer of wealth in history during this last year led by Democrat governors. Over 2/3 of small businesses shutdown forever and the large businesses continue to grow. You fascists will never learn.
@@Matt-ro7cb Enough of that nonsense. At the beginning of the pandemic, the Federal government passed the CARES ACT with nearly every, if not every vote in Congress. This bill was a huge upward transfer of wealth to corporate America and the 1% Corruption and serving only the wealthy is a bipartisan issue. Stop pretending that it’s not.
Same though lmao
Some of us absolutely love working, but not being understaffed, underpaid and overworked. As well as being treated like literally human garbage by both management and customers.
This!!!!
Yes!!!
Oh my gosh, I second that.
Yep, that's mostly the real reason right there.
Especially customers that are bitter because of their crappy life. Whom taken it out on workers as if they are not humans who have families and a life.
You show people they're expendable and replaceable, then some will realize, "okay, replace me."
Yet they couldn't have done it with out a hand out from.the government. That's the only reason they are doing this. They can't get evicted and don't pay rent but get free money. It's laziness. It will end poorly for them. What scenario do you think will take place? You think that everyone will just have high paying jobs? And everyone will be happy? No. There just won't be jobs.
@@randybobandy9828 the day of the pillow comes ever closer.
That’s what I thought when I was about to leave my job
Said every Liberal voter EVER...
That's exactly what is suppose to happen... when an entry-level job has run its course... you move on and get a job that's NOT entry-level ... lmao
When a gallon of milk is nearly cost half of your hourly wage. Rethink how they should be treating you.
lol You ever Milked a Cow? Obviously, NOT.. XD It takes about an Hour to Pull a Gallon of Milk from a Cow by hand..So,that is a Terrible example to use to show labor charges and costs..I mean, its a PERFECT example of where The Local Milk Price is set Perfectly to the Local Average Hourly wage, It works for every City in the US anyway. 1 Gallon of Milk costs almost 1 /2 hour of the average wage. So, Otherwise, You would have to Work for that milk, Bottle it, Carry it home and store it... Before it turned to Butter. XP
@@redneckhippiefreak who’s milking cows by hand in 2021? They have immigrant labor working in farms who attach machines to the cows to milk them. It’s a dirty and tough job, I won’t debate that. But no company that sells milk at the grocery store is milking by hand.
@Reinhard Rockwell Spot on.
The point he's making is. If it wasn't for us you would have to do everything yourself, and from experience of watching people...Yea unless you were shown how to do it. You can't, but hey you'll give us a laugh we have been asking for for years. Sense we are treated like we're stupid.
@Hopper33 The one that knows the Value of Labor .. XD That is an odd way of saying you don't know the value though..XP
I’ve worked in food service my whole life and it felt so good to finally put my two weeks in a few days ago. Starting a new job at a warehouse and for the first time, I’m gonna have access to health insurance and dental insurance.
That is so awesome. Congrats. Hope you enjoy the change of pace. You don’t have to work as fast as humanly possible in non-food-service. That was a jump for me.
YEAH!!👍👍👍
good for you!
CONGRATULATIONS.
Congratulations
I didn’t like what our boss was doing, he angrily said “if you don’t like it you can leave!”. I listened
Then leave and find a better job
@@kennypowers1945 that's literally what they said they did
I have personally quit two awful jobs after some manager yelled at me and said the exact same thing. One of the times the manager called me an hour later, apologized, and asked me to come back. I said no lol
@@kennypowers1945 we can. Obviously tell ur deaf since u can't listen.
@Obsidian Anubis Yep. I remember I had a situation like that. I'm just going to say I did what I was told to do . When company came and didn't like it, it went down. I clocked out on a Friday after sending my good bye email and started my new job on Monday. I'm glad everything worked out for me because that bridge was burnted (no typo).
Can't blame the burger king people, probably costs more driving back and forth than they make.
Exactly! I worked in a call center and more than half my paycheck went into getting there and back.
Really? Half of my check goes to the government.
A normal person would have been able to take the hourly wage and figure all that out before even taking the job.
@@Commin_Cents talking to you
Between extreme taxes and extreme gas prices as of lately, I don't blame anyone. Government caused millions to leave their jobs and sit on unemployment, this is the best time I can remember to better yourself (unless you are lazy.)
This is great, we got to stop working for employer's who don't care about us.
We need to stop supporting their Business, too.
The bottom line is this: You cannot live on one full-time minimum wage job.
@LuxuryLyfe Forget about even working three minimum wage jobs!!!
I just want to be Happy and live life!!! I don't need materialistic junk.
Life is so short and so many people work themselves to death!!!
We need a Better Way of living, a Balanced way of life, instead of the 9 - 5 Miserable Prison.
@@Yin-Yang-444 lol You want all that, You need to Work for it. Start your Own Business, Its not hard, Ive been Self employed for nearly 30 years.

Until then, Learn some skills that others Need and you can Choose your own hours..
@@redneckhippiefreak I want all what?? Don't want much. I am happy like the birds are happy flying in the morning and chirping. If animals living in paradise, so can humans!!! Minimalism all the way. Also, too many people lack Sunshine and get sick from staying indoors, thus working a 9-5 indoors constantly is bad for you and leads to depression for so many people. Your body needs sun!!! 4 Vitamin D. Nature teaches you a lot. Reread my comment. Less is more.
@@redneckhippiefreak I love gardening, I need to find somewhere to work there,
because I have gained skills growing my own veggies and fruit, and herbs for tea.
@@redneckhippiefreak You can save a lot of money growing your own food.
It's almost like people finally figured out how soul crushing some of those jobs are.
Well said. I had a few jobs which, while paying quite well, were soul crushing to the core. Corporate America SUCKS. Self-employment or Public Service, where at all possible, is the far better way to go!
soul, self-esteem, everywhere they sell "billions and billions" of everything you will find the shattered pieces of employee souls
People have always known, it’s just many people are finally taking decisive action.

#johnnyx100 quit because his music 💯💥
It’s not always about money. Some jobs are just so miserable they are not worth a pay check.
So true!

The place I worked at you definitely had to have a bit of thick skin to really tolerate the people and leadership. The higher ups would talk down to you and the workers who had been there for years had zero mutual respect for anyone. The whole toxic atmosphere would chase away new hires. I learned quick that just being nice to someone would go a long way. Just even a little kindness and patience would want someone to come back to work no matter how tough the job.
like the food industry as a whole i left and now im an electrician 18yrs as a cook peace out
Amen
Corporate America wants their house in the Bahamas instead of paying real people what they're worth. It's not complicated... People are waking up and do not want to work for pennies anymore. Cost of living has steadily gone up and never the pay.
How is anyone, supposed to have transportation, a place to live, food to eat, access to medical care, and of course, happiness on $15 an hour. And to think the major corporations response is 'you can have 1/2 of that, you stupid, miserable, pissant, of a beast!!!!' ......came the message from the ivory towers.....
@@rooktheradical1 Exactly! I dont know what all of these opportunities are! I have a 2 year trade school degree, and still only make $16 if I am lucky. Not worth it at all. As a service Foreman, I would write up the invoices for the customers. Often, the job would be $1000 labor and I would see $100 of it. That is way too much of a separation. They got too greedy, and now nobody will tolerate it.
History teaches people will only take so much!
Slavery was always economics, paying the lowest amount for labor only to receive the highest possible profit.
We are in a modern day slavery as we have no choice to work or not.
Freedom allows choice, opportunities to live without making food, housing, or health a choice what to pay.
For the people by the people.
Corporations and capitalism are not written in the constitution. We as citizens are the whole purpose of our country. Paying for the freedom with our lives, as not one corporation will or has ever experience war.
At the age of 18 all males are required to register for the draft.
A corporation will only try to take more from all of us to buy their crap they sell.
As we are beholden to the country. A corporation is only beholden to the stock holders which alot are not even citizens, yet they are legally allowed to have an impact on election buying our congress members through lobbyists.
How many times have you told yourself work to live and live to work?
Go in to a job only to repeat it the next day.
Working multiple jobs only to survive another day to go back again.

@@rooktheradical1 true it's not much at all glad my rent for my studio is $675 - but when I look at the rent around me how could I afford that?!
Whenever we the middle class to lower class people come together, we are unstoppable. It has ALWAYS been a class battle!

#1 bosses
#2 hourly requirement, attempting to mandate more
Couldn't stand the folks at Bloom Energy, cheap junk generators, and unsafe work environment.
Yes, actually. It's like, love the job, not the company.
Indeed.
Just quit last week because of my boss. Loved working there but to be fair the schedule was really bad as well and a few other reasons but it was mostly my boss being very strict that broke the camels back.
The nerve of these people not wanting to deal with crappy, over demanding bosses, rude customers and exposure to Covid for the kingly sum of $7.50 an hour.
When the employees cant afford to eat the fast food you're selling, your business model is broken.
@@jarrysciligo5395 And the food isn't exactly amazing either. As cheap as it gets
Sounds like you need to move to a better paying state.
@@ronniecarson8756 who’s “you”? Minimum wage where I live, in NYC, is $15. But you are aware that there are states that pay $7.25, right? So maybe you can instruct someone making $7.25 in Kentucky, how they can just pick up and move to nyc to work at Burger King and pay $1,200 for a studio apartment.
AMD no respect.
When people get fed up they are fed up. A lesson to be learned by uncaring companies. People that work for your companies are not your slaves. They are human beings treat them as such. Need to be employment laws that better protect workers.
Of course the employer wouldn't want the employees to leave. Who'd be running the business ? Not the employer
Just like companies don’t want crappy workers, workers dont like crappy companies. The tables are being overturned enough is enough!
I like how all my co-workers are saying that people are just living on Unemployment Compensation, which could not be farther from the truth.
Lol
This sort of thing happens once in a lifetime so enjoy it while you can next year won't be like this.
Why work ?
Get fired for any little thing
Get paid scraps
Get an education then!
There’s nothing more depressing than leaving the comfort of your home everyday just to work around unappreciative people. I’m blessed I get to stay home and take care of my mother.
Yeah, you would not believe the Karen and Kevin freak outs that happen
Exactly. That's how my girlfriend feels every day working for Chipotle. If only husbands could be the only one forced to bear that burden. But EVERYONE wants to works so wages are all equal and low

@@johnnyp2565 im so sorry. If i was on the phone with you id start moaning immediately!
Maybe because the cost of living is going up, pays staying the same. We’re over worked and under paid.
I love that the comments section is driving further from politics and closer toward blaming the cause, employers and pay are things we can address
The pandemic forced a lotta people to remember what they wanted out of life and make steps toward it...
Oh yeah definitely made me realize what I want 😀✌
Yes time to avoid this dumbing down society at all costs
I want free health insurance, rent money, monthly checks for food, just like the 750,000 illegals caught crossing the border since Biden took office.
SO THEY RAN OUT AND GOT THE JAB AS FAST AS THE TELL LIE VISION TOLD THEM
@@ljbrizo lol what. if that’s what people want, then let them do it.
Karma is hitting employers that have long underpaid their workers and forced them to work in understaffed, stressful, and unrewarding work environments. It's about time!
Amen. I hope those employers lose everything.
I know the feeling
True facts👍👍👍
Not really, Billionaires just added 1.24 Trillion to their wealth since pandemic started. You are living in a bubble that is being perpetrated by the Lying trashy media. In fact Workers are still losing and were losing and will keep on losing. The same people who own the Burger Kings also own the next place that employs you be it a gas station or retail store or airline or anything for that matter.
@@mohammadmursalin6817 - Funny how people do not understand that when you think your getting more, they just raise the carrot of success. You will be chasing the carrot for millenia's. Humans are so dumb!!
It's the work culture in America that sucks. Work life balance is horrible. In Ireland as a *temp* employee I got 21 days vacation right off the bat. And when I took days off I wasn't looked at as less of a hard worker. I had 7hr workdays vs 8 and it made a huge difference. Even after I ran out of vacation I could take days off without pay, and my manager would not bat an eye as that is normal and people are humans and have lives outside of their work. That's totally foreign here in good ol' america
Very true.
I was impulsive and quit my job...been sleeping great since.
you have politicians and rich people saying these kinda jobs shouldn't be paying a living wage and then are angry when people don't want to work in them anymore.
@Doom Slayer Yay inflation
@Doom Slayer the liberals too they think raising the minimum wage will solve it
@@superiorshotgun4348 Bruh exactly, we gotta do what the conservatives do best, do absolutely nothing about it and let it fix itself.
Annoyed when 1 tiny thing doesn't go according to their plan
@@superiorshotgun4348 I'm petty sure everyone knows the wage needs to go up....but that's not the only thing that needs to happen. Prices need to go down so buying a house is actually possible rather than being stuck into a debt that you will never end up paying off in your life
We all realized that there's more to life than low paying thankless jobs with awful bosses, backstabbing coworkers, long commutes, little to no benefits etc. To all job-seekers, I wish you good luck and pray that you all find your well-deserved happiness. ❤️

I’ve done a lot of different types of work.. But I’m the type of person that doesn’t have a problem leaving if I’m not appreciated.. Now the nation is understanding what I’ve been going through for years..
Nobody needs to take abuse from a boss.
Meanwhile they're all late and straight drug addict bums
The WORST abuse in the workplace is knowing more than the so called "authority" and being told not to excercise good and proper instruction and practice. Then...Them basically getting mad at you when you dont do it their way- when you do what is right. That same authority oppressing you through your wage, denying you deserved and earned promotion, simply because you don't appear to be "going with the flow" of ignorance. This is what we call ABUSE OF POWER and LACK OF USE OF GOOD AND PROPER KNOWLEDGE. For they know that if you got that promotion it would be a game changer for all and everyone would be better off in truth and in spirit. They can't be tyrannical if you are coming with Gods goodness. You would take the slaves out of slavery and release them from indebtedness of the oppressive workplace. All this is usually is brought to light by way of an audit. They usually let the high ups know where they went wrong. I just say thats when we need to realize, not all places operate in a "Godly" way and SHOULD BE as they are our provision and protection, right?
@Mutton Chops welcome to earth..just reality
Jiy soyo.... i worked for a terrible boss for 5 1/2 yrs and got PTSD from it!! Thank God,.I have another job now and love my bosses! No one should have to put up crap from anyone just because you work for him/her.
@@alexcorrea4828 You would know all about that. It takes one to know one.
People don't quit jobs. They quit their bosses.
No, people quit jobs, too. Except for one job, I have always had great bosses but absolutely hated the job. I've at last found happiness at my current job, and make enough to have now dropped a day of work, so I only work three and a half days. I'll use the extra time to learn a new skill of some kind to see what I can come up with for a side hustle. That way I earn money but not just from doing customer service all day.
Not me... of all the jobs I left over the years, I left because I found jobs that paid a little more than the last one, so on and so forth ... rinse and repeat!
Agree
Yes indeed I’m ready to quit my boss after 6 years
@Hafiz Zifah go work for a boss that treats you like crap than talk to people
tell these corporations to start treating us like people
I’m never going back to an office again. Props to all the 100% remote jobs out there
For decades companies have ditched their loyalty to people. So now the pendulum is swinging back and companies wonder why?
Well said!
Tired of making $12 an hour and expected to put in $24 of labor, I think.
Yeah right. If only that was that lol. It has nothing to do with all the handouts people are after now. Employees are worse now than they've ever been. Lets not act like they're the victims.
Nah, many of these people are not seeking or getting handouts. Also, $300 a week or whatever is not enough. That's just enough for rent, maybe a little food. Especially since they are about to stop them, right? People do want better than what they've been getting.
Yup that's exactly what it is
“Gee I wonder why adults no longer want to accept low pay, no benefits, long hours, and poor treatment when there’s record job openings right now.” - Fast food companies right now.
Not just fast food. There are some warehouses that are mistreating their employees. Increasing the workload, the responsibilities. Everything except the pay, except for top management of course. I know, I currently work for one of these companies and am currently looking for another job myself. Cannot WAIT to quit!!
sub par benefits are just as bad. like medical just to meet the law and you still got pay your life away. if you see the doctor or they dont cover meds you need
Lol warren you prolly broke af my guy
Sounds like a great opportunity for teenagers to get a job.
You look like Peter griffin
More people are working for themselves and I love to see it
Bosses: If you don't like it quit!
Workers: Okay!
Bosses: Wait...
People are waking up, and want better for their lives. That's why they are quitting. 👍🏽
#johnnyx100 we have this
Keep in mind, there will always be entry-level/remedial level jobs that pay according to an individual's skill level or lack thereof. Entry level/remedial positions are never going to pay super high hourly rates since if they did, the company would no longer remain competitive against their competitors… unless people don’t mind paying double or triple for goods, services & food items sold by employers that offer high paying entry-level type positions(?) Let’s also not forget that a lot of employers actually offered hazard pay to those that stayed on the job during the pandemic.
btw… those that “want better for their lives” is fine & great but Instead of demanding “all” entry level/remedial jobs pay a living wage… people need to take some responsibility & learn new skills by getting additional training or by taking community college courses, so they can level up & become more marketable to employers that offer higher pay rates.

Trust me. Retailers have no respect for their employees. All you get is corporate propaganda and they'll even advertise how well they treat their employees. They are lying through their teeth. I've been overlooked for four promotions in my own department and have been with the same company since early 2000. Annual 10 to 15 cent pay raises and the promotions are only for managers to relocate or hire managers from other companies, I'm glad they're struggling to find people to hire. Their greed has finally caught up to them.

Not the better pay, but the better work environment. Noone can pay me enough to deal with Karens. "Ok fine quit" the manager says, and so I did and he gave a surprised look.
Mine did the same thing. I warned them for a while I was back temporarily to pay off my medical bill and to get my jury duty out of the way. They thought I was kidding, and at first they treated me really well till. I told them "no" on one thing due to my aspburgers. I could only stay in a window for so long before I would lose my mind cause I couldn't keep control of a situation out of my control that they demanded I keep under control. Cause yes I can control how many people want fries and a lot of dumb drinks. I gave them my two weeks notice took a picture so they couldn't weasle out of it, and it was if I never told them I was back for a short time 😱. Idiots
There are still jobs that don't pay employees their worth! This is not a 3rd world country, this is the United States. Very SAD!

It’s not just management at a job. It’s the people above them.
@J Dolo Actually, if you had good management and executives, they would find a way to deal with those "problem" employees....you know, the ones who don't like to do their job and are slackers...
I had a manager previously who would constantly gaslight me and tell me that I wasnt doing a good job managing my team, that I wasnt taking enough responsibility, and I need to improve my organization skills. All to find out that she was slapping on a good portion of her work and responsibility on me and another manager I worked with. We both quit around the same time. When I gave my notice, she cried and told me she was crying because "I didn't know how much stress I just left her with by quitting after the other manager." Sadly, that made me feel sooooo happy inside.
That's everywhere
As a manager at my site I disagree the people above just control what needs to be done etc but as you being everyday contact you can appreciate employees tell them listen to what they have to say etc
@@jrockaz548 I agree with you to a certain extent. It is always good to give encouragement to your team. However, often times, there are a lot of people in leadership roles that really shouldnt be in that position. Those types of managers are promoted in specific circumstances, such as, being promoted by a friend, they were promoted because they're family is in upper management, or the company had no other candidates to choose from and they were the last resort. Those people who have not worked at the bottom, do not know what its like and usually take advantage of their situations.
If these companies didn't pay slave wages, this problem would be fixed. Greedy upper management needs to realize this.
I quit a job in June because the BS/pay ratio got too high. Found a better paying job two weeks ago.
Abusive managers: Why is no one enjoying working here? I specifically requested it.
This is hilarious
I resent using a Mr. Holt quote as abusivo manager, but this is funny
@Pepe The Frog alright, stop right there, you know exactly what they meant and you’re twisting their words on them. Obviously not all managers are abusive, but we aren’t talking about those people, and what you just did is like when someone goes ‘Yeah well ____ suffers from X as well’ you devalue someone’s statement, and the severity of what they are talking about by normalizing it or victim blaming. Stop bringing up things that obviously aren’t mentioned or part of the problem at hand, we aren’t talking about those facts and it takes focus and severity away from the original point.
@Pepe The Frog and now I see how seriously you’re actually taking this, but thankfully it means someone has to be brain dead to listen to you
@Pepe The Frog Manager: *asks on the third day of no training*
She did the right thing . People are tired being mistreated on these low paying jobs . Good for her
Oh yes did the right thing.. they should learn to treat people right.
I dunno, she could always go to trade school or college….you know, something like that. You can’t be uneducated and flipping burgers, but still demand high pay; it doesn’t work that way sweetie. This is absolutely ridiculous. I was tired of only making 40k a year, so I went to school……maybe they can do what regular people do? Where do people get off demanding high pay and NOT have education/experience/training? You seriously don’t see what’s wrong with this picture? If you are making burgers at burger king, then you aren’t worth 15 or 20 an hour. But I do understand that a large portion of people in this country just expect high pay to be handed to them…..like they are special and deserve it just because.
@@deplorablelibertarian you missed the point
@@1incher...….she’s not special because she quit a bad job, this is america and people do it every day. I didn’t miss the point buddy, she’s not worth high pay just because she’s flipping burgers. Doing the right thing would be her getting the necessary education and training…and then she won’t even have to demand higher pay; it will already be there. No, I every point in there.
@@deplorablelibertarian you do have a point but not everyone is school smart. college is not easy

Don’t value a company at all. Job-Hop if necessary to get a better paying job. No company needs loyalty because there are hundreds of people lining up to take your job with low pay!
@Zaniah Glover I've hopped from 3 different jobs these past few months. One only gave me 5 hrs a week, the other two I was worked around every possible shift like an animal including overnight, the other I was hired for it cus of covid short staff. Working like an animal the entire night for 10/hr, sometimes alone at a store taking customers to then hear some b*tch come in the morning telling me I wasn't working.

The government should stop giving welfare to these bums. That’s why inflation has been jumping through the roof. The dollar is becoming devalued. Their choice should be between “work a job, or STARVE”; not “work a job I like, or get govt benefits for doing nothing”. Ugh
The entire point of work is that everybody feels like they should be paid more than they are, and nobody likes their job as much as they wish. That’s the entire purpose of work. The Bible makes it clear that work is meant to be hard. Anybody thinking otherwise is delusional. Work either doesn’t pay well, or it’s not fun
Absolutely, the 'work-slavery' is about to end. All the people will know what they are worth, and no one will bow-down to the corporate gods. Working is a choice, and we can stop at any time.

@@daftcow706 no it wont because thats money that the employer would have to pay, not the government since the government isnt printing the money for the employer to pay. Only reason we have a minimum wage mandated by government is because we dont have labor unions that control wages
@@penuji7981 And what do you think happens to prices for fast food. It will increase as well as restaurant food, since they'll have to raise wages too. That harms consumers mostly. Those workers with higher wages will have less help due to cutting costs, which causes slower service. Less business causes the same result, the eventual closure of many fast food locations.
@@steelnutz7464 yeah the only way to solve this problem is to have the companies raise their wages on their own, without raising minimum wage.

@@itowedin they will be fine
@@itowedin It all depends where you are starting from. I am blue collar and have never made more than 27 dollars an hour. My wife is a high end corporate attorney. She makes about 300 dollars an hour. For her making 100.00 and hour seems bad. If you get even a small pay increase and don't have to work nights and weekends your life is better.
And they will pay them more and pay more in taxes and just go broke……. Wait a minute, no they won’t, they will pass on that cost to consumers. The ones hurt the most will be the ones dumb liberals claim they are trying to help. If the price of a Big Mac goes up, it won’t hurt the corporate exec. It will hurt those on the bottom that eat at McDonalds.
If jobs paid employees wages that rivals the expenses (bills) then there won't be such an issue.
All my friends and I have to get 2 jobs just to keep our head above the water.
I was hired at a little Ceasers last year. Within two weeks my manager literally wanted me to run the entire store and would leave me alone for hours with a cash register that would crash every two hours. I understand their pain
I worked in retail while attending college 30 years ago. Let me just state that everyone should be required to work in the service industry for 6 months just to see how much BS workers put up with from customers for menial pay.
Amen to that. My first job was in retail and I loathed it. Nothing like working retail the day after Christmas, with people bringing up a $2.00 pair of socks with a $100 gift card and demanding cash for the balance, trying to return something without the gift receipt and no proof they had bought it at the store...
Why should they get paid more for low skill work?
@@randybobandy9828

@@randybobandy9828 Retail is not easy at all!
I worked fast food, retail, custodial jobs up to and through college. I know how difficult it is and the inflexibility of those jobs. I wouldn't trade that experience for anything because it made me better and more appreciative of what I have and what it took to get where I am now. Not everyone takes those paths and they'll never truly understand those difficulties because they were not exposed to them. I don't bother with those because there is no point.

Hmm who would have thought that's why you get an education so you aren't working those jobs forever.

@@SquishyProductions I have to admit that's true. My last two jobs paid significantly less and I knew if I couldn't advance up, I had to move. 1st job started at $12 and topped out at $18, 2nd job was way better by starting at $17 and a top out of $24, now that I got lucky to get in skilled trades my starting pay is $20 at the facility I'm apprenticing at with a top out of $34 in 4 years and because of the work environment am guaranteed at least 60-80 hrs. Which is an excellent deal because my college grad cousin with a 4 yr bachelor and 80k debt only make $22 as a human resource manager working roughly 40-50 hrs weekly ... only way to advance now is to build my own contracting business or deliver something new and useful to society... or maybe to really push an aggressive investment strategy.
True always way your options #dasherrapper
This is the way to do it don't quit unless it is unbearable and you cant find time for even an interview. Try to move laterally to another job at a different company if up in your current company isnt an option. That way you are exploiting their systeminstead of their system exploiting you.
If people actually cared about their employees rather than treating them like robots it would be different but this is what it has come to.
@Lala Peeen Lmaooo woah woah looney tunes chill out no one knows what conspiracies you’re talking about💀🤣🤣all I said was people should treat their employees like humans. Also comment back if you’re a peasant too
I’m in med manufacturing and recently switched jobs. Can confirm, I was basically a robot on an assembly line. I was soooooo tired of putting bottles in bags. That BA in a scientific field was too expensive to use on tasks a high schooler could do.

Even worse than the work environment and job is the pay. I made $8 an hour at Subway to pay for this Fall semester. Is it really surprising I quite the second I had made enough to afford the semester?
@@mysteryuser7062 I work at subway rn and things are very hectic. When I see the work roster, let's just say the list has none of the coworkers I started with just a few months ago. So since there's only 2-3 people who know how to close, we get stuck working as late as 11 P.M. - 1:00 AM (depending on the coworker) because the workers before the night shift are new, and don't do dishes, sweep, meal prep, or restock the line. And the 1-2 days we get off aren't guaranteed at all, it can be your weekend and both of your off days you get called in because 3 employees quit at the same time. And the type of coworkers that want to work these low wages most likely aren't gonna help you close the store on time (there have been times where we left at 1:30 AM)
We made a manager quit because we didn't like the way he ran things he was always micro managing
I know, right? They act like it's so surprising.

It’s not all about the pay. It’s also about how you’re treated as an employee. Decently paid employees are leaving for more respectable jobs elsewhere with employers who don’t see their employees as just an “inconvenient expense.”
And yet they still don’t understand why people won’t work for them.

What else do they expect when you’re dealing with bs from customers, rude bosses, no time off & very low pay? During Covid people honestly got the time to reflect what they want out of life, what’s worth it and what’s not. It’s 100% not worth it to work to live everyday but to live to work. Sometimes courage/bravery skip a generation or two and it’s sad millennials get bs for saying and doing what everyone else has been secretly wanting to do for generations.
