...did you visit the sub? That's exactly what the people in that sub are doing.

The "underlying issue" is that low-wage jobs frequently have abusive managers. But since the jobs are unskilled, it's easy to find replacements when someone gets sick of the abuse and quits.
Because they're easily replaced, they have zero leverage of fixing the abuse. At best, they'll quit, get replaced, and the new employee will be treated just as poorly as the old one.
- brodouevencode 5y agoYeah I get it. And had my share of it too. While working through college I had a manager working in a warehouse that was eventually fired and brought up on charges for assault. I’ve quit jobs too because of poor working conditions. But a lot of them also complain about being trapped in retail/service industry level jobs. My point was that they should get out of there. Those are low skill jobs that will be soon replaced by automation anyway. There’s better out there, and it just takes a willingness and a good work ethic to escape it.
