Retail workers are quitting at record rates for higher-paying work: ‘My life isn’t worth a dead-end

[Commish]

I expect retail and fast food to have high turnover rates unless people are trying to move up into management and/or ownership.

People who are getting more in unemployment are opting to stay off of work which is somewhat understandable.

However, people need to think about their future. Where will they be when they reach retirement age? Don't they want a pension? 401K/IRA? Medical/dental insurance? Social security may not be available in the future for them to live off. Then what?

That is something people need to think about, not just live for the present.

In the meantime, retailers and fast food establishments need to raise wages and offer decent benefits, if they want to attract workers not to mention create better working conditions.

Everything is rising in costs but the wages. It was only a matter of time before people were going to start saying fukk it.

You just know this shyt worse now that the selfish folks back out here having to wait longer for a burger.

nobody trying to put up with abuse for 7.50 an hour

They don't care. All of that we bill abolished by the time retirement age for them is reached at the rate were heading

The minute they start paying Walmart greeters $50 an hour I'm retiring from my job

I'm using a lawn chair though


And I ain't greeting nobody

 

[Rockstar Mom]

Then they should go to school and have a strong major or do a trade. Ain't nobody stopping them....

Unless you never plan on going to target, the grocery store, dollar store, or any store ever again, clearly people have to work those jobs

Good burn it all

I guess they don't care. I know that I will get my shyt when I retire! fukk that!

But, on a serious note, I guess those who don't have a job must not be the head of their household, have to pay significant bills or have dependents because those that do will get a job or else become homeless.

This will be the thread where some broke clowns will somehow side with the ceo

"W-w--b-but if you look at the numbers, the CEOs aren't actually paid enough"

 

[The ADD]

Good on them and I don't blame them. People are being a$$holes more and more also. My mom works in a medical office and people have zero patience anymore.

American airlines had to cancel flight due to staffing

its not just restaurants.

even hotels are understaffed

And all are understaffed because of wages, fullstop.
I was listening to an economics podcast where they talked about how these companies were working round the clock to figure out some way to get more people to want to work for them



pay them more maybe?

Biden’s immigration policy makes sense now

 

[Rekkapryde]

Good...I said this in another thread but life isn't about work work work until your dead..its stupid

Sadly a lot of us haves been brainwashed into thinking that life should be this way

the shyt corps have been getting away with since Reagan is past ridiculous. That CEO and other high priced suits pay should be going more into profit sharing with the employees. NO one said they had to make the same, but some of this shyt has jumped the shark ridiculously.

the giving citizenship to people already here? I don't necessarily disagree with that. Tired of dem getting paid under the table and just paying sales tax doesn't make it fair when they ain't filing income taxes. Pay your fair share illegalbrehs

 

[ColdSlither]

They should. Yes people need to work, but people also need to pay bills and take care of their families. Now if these workers were on Section 8 and WIC, you know which group of people would be bytching about being a government leach. Pay people enough to pay the basics. Beyond that, they either need to up their education, or find a second job. I'm not against having a second or third job. One of them should be able to cover the basics though.
