Edit2: Incredible, the US has gotten even shittier since last year. And walking 2 mile long stretches to get to the nearest convenience store, seeing the hostility imposed to pedestrians by not paving sidewalks, dirt trails all the way along highways, etc. Sneeking out an elderly trailer parks mostly full of lonely cat ladies, almost millionaires and the occasional migrant family (of which, I am but the guest of one such family), seeing and feeling the apprehension of the neighborhood; it’s been this way for over a century. Shifty gazes and distrust for centuries.
it really rose again, didn’t it? :astronaut-2:
Without revealing too much, I worked factory floor at Amy’s for a while 2 years ago… no air conditioning & stuffy atmosphere; 2-3 bathroom breaks, at most. ngl cutting blocks of cheese and chucking them at the shredder was kinda fun, and you could take some of the baked pizza bread and cheese back home if you wanted. but they made you work overtime sometimes… and then it wouldn’t appear on your paycheck. so, after a couple of months I bailed.
I’m glad they’re pushing back, the contract legit opens up with a “we don’t need to talk about unions, we’re a family here” aka the oldest red flag.
