Well, there is a lot of industry we collectively turn a blind eye to.
Meat packing facility jobs is a hot topic right now due to stories about COVID conditions. The workers in the facilities are treated like the human equivalent of the livestock they process. But the employer is often the "only game in town" for those workers. Even if it's not impossible for them to leave they may be practically stuck and this is reflected in their treatment.
- munin 6y agoI appreciate this but in the context of this discussion when a PhD asks “is it better in industry” they do not mean going to work at a meat packing plant. Your larger point is true though and it would be great for there to be equity and dignity for all people of all professions!
- Rapzid 6y agoI tend to agree that's a somewhat safe bet and it gave me pause making this comment. However "industry" has not been thoroughly qualified and it has been used throughout the comments in a very general way.. Plus, I'm sure Tyson Foods employs some PhDs among its 141,000 workers :)
