A UN poverty expert called on the CEOs of Amazon, DoorDash and Walmart on Tuesday to address allegations that wages at the US-based corporations are trapping workers in poverty, forcing them to rely on US Government benefits to survive.
The government knows what they are doing, too. They just won’t do anything to jeopardize the money that those corporations give to them through lobbying.
No, really? Noooo…
Really?
I remember when I worked overnights at Walmart. There was a night differential of$1 per hour. While I was working there it changed to $.50 and the base pay went up by 55 cents. They really tried to tell me because my pay went up by 5 cents and hour I wasn’t actually losing anything. Walmart will do anything and everything to pay their employees as little as possible. Also those who were there for a 1-2 years actually lost income with that change.
You do not need to be a poverty expert to know that.
This was actually a pretty funny comment and I feel like everyone missed it.
Actually I forgot ‘not’ in my initial comment.
Makes more sense but I assumed you were being sarcastic anyway, which in that context made me lol pretty hard.
