    This is a seasonal or whatever. Don't know if it applies or not. That's what the job description said.

    NO, Iv'e never even heard of such bullshit. People are always out to get you. Last year the big deal was reducing full time to 28 hours a week and increasing minimum wage. That never happened, so many jobs simply reduced hours per employee and paid them the same. I got fucked over for the majority of a year until we moved. Not everyone can be bailed out by their congress or what-have-you. ... "minimum work hours," he says.

    Umm ok. Seems kinda silly to post a job for 2 hours a week.

    What I was thinking of actually was if you're say scheduled for four hours and go home early because there's no work you have to be paid for that four hours.

    Also fuck off.

    It's really silly. And they don't say anything until after you apply and shit. Then that's when the truth comes out.

    Come at me bro.
    Honestly I can imagine a clause with some jobs if you're salaried, but I send people home early every day. I hate to send someone home who has only been there for two hours, but sometimes it is just too slow to keep them there that day.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again.

    STOP LIVING IN A COUNTRY THAT HAS FEWER EMPLOYEE RIGHTS THAN FUCKING ETHIOPIA.

    (the least you can pay someone for 'round here is 4 hours)

    Unions are bad for business. It means you have to put extra effort into exploiting people

    Hmm, I really don't recall now. I do remember Sprung and Jack being the ones who added a lot.

    Exactly, even in the shittest of shit jobs, working hard will pay off eventually.

    Roxas should just get a job scrubbing floors for a supermarket.
