They can survive by paying living wages. They just don’t want to. How would they rake in all that money if they had to spend a little bit extra? Preposterous!
The businesses don’t care about employee’s lives in the slightest so why should the employees care about the business?
My employer promised a raise after 3 months. It took them over a year and a half for them to finally give me a small raise and it’s still below a living wage. They think I’m actually gonna care about my job and do it right when they fucked me over like that? I mean sure it’s my fault for sticking around at a shitty company but this situation shouldn’t be allowed to happen in the first place. They cost me thousands of dollars that I should have been making. I don’t care if I cost them thousands as well.
Also my coworker who gets paid way more than I do does less than a 1/5th of the work that I do but they won’t get rid of him.
