He says on the holiday dedicated to the freeing of the slaves. Itβs no coincidence this the one he complains about.
Work Reform
A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
Kind of telling to be complaining about this on a day which celebrates the end of slavery.
"the workers don't want it"
The fuck we don't
Imagine being this guy and trying to speak for the working class
And having legal adults stop and think, "Hmm, maybe this day off thing IS kinda woke."
I hate paid time off. Itβs one of the greatest crimes of modern life. I think Iβll campaign to have my union dismantled and my pay cut in half because the current model is clearly ripping off my employer.
Keep in mind that the guy complaining about PTO hasnβt worked a day in his life.
The fucker is actively cratering the once biggest economy in the world
and his constituents cheer.
I hope every one of you 'genocide joe' objecters who stayed home feel crushing guilt as you watch the country collapse due to your misplaced ideologies
The mans an idiot
We have the least mandated PTO in the developed world and a good portion of the underdeveloped world.
Our federal holidays aren't even days off for most people. Lol
My opinion of him can't be lower but man I keep realizing how fucking stupid his supporters are with every one of his asinine comments.
Yeah I called Juneteenth getting axed over a month ago and one of my co-workers chimed in that Juneteenth was a Trump holiday. It isn't, it was signed into law by Biden his first year in office. Trump lied about it while campaigning.
One of the country with the least amount of paid vacation in the world. And that's the hill he decides to climb on. He excels at making himself look increasingly moronic.
And here we see this buffoon once again viciously attacking his political enemies...(Flips papers)...
..."Anyone with half a brain who works for a living."
I doubt he cares about holidays at all, but he very much cares about removing a holiday that is specifically relevant to not white people.
I was taking with a family member yesterday and said I'd be shocked if Juneteenth is still a holiday next year.
America produces way more than enough to allow everyone to live comfortably and enjoy life. But the fruits of all that extra productivity is being hoarded by a tiny portion of the population while workers are being increasingly stretched and strained to extract as much value from then as possible while paying them as least as possible.
The scarcity of wealth and the need to always work harder and longer hours to barely make it is an illusion maintained to exploit the workers.
And the fact he posted this on Juneteenth is just coincidence, right?
$BILLIONS
I mentally read this in the same voice I read $VARIABLE with.
It would be fun to make Trump work a job for 90 days. Nothing major. Maybe answering phones for a help line.
9 to 5 desk job.
Monday through Friday.
If he misses a day he has to "find a new job" and start over.
The dude would fucking CRACK like he was being waterboarded!
Don't these holidays cost owners rather than workers, though?
I used to love working holidays as a single guy for that double pay. π€
No holidays means only 1x pay π nevermind if you just wanted to take the day off without getting docked.
Didn't he just create like two new holidays?
Go play golf and change your diaper grandpa, youβre getting crabby.
And he seriously said this, what the actual fuck. It seemed so absurd that i had to look up, and yeah its there...
