      The donut shops around me are so much better anyway, so even if you don’t want to get healthy, there’s probably better options.

    in Germany it is required by law that you have a 30 minute break if you work for 6 or more hours, and that is federal minimum. Turbo-capitalism ruins a society

      South Australia it depends on the Award (like a default contract for a particular kind of work, it sets minimum conditions)

      But at a bare minimum, if you’re working at a shift of 4 hours or more, you’re required to be given a 15 minute paid tea break.

      If you’re working 5 hours or more, Add a 30 minute unpaid lunch/dinner break.(*minimum, 1 hour max if scheduled - max as otherwise it’s really just split shifts)

    I feel this.

    At my last job (automotive manufacturing: production) we got a total of an hour of break over the course of our 12hr shifts.

    You know what really pissed off the managers? When they found out we were rotating through breaks all day long.
    Hahaha. Fuckers.

    Donald Trump and Elon Musk gutted the National Labor Relations Board and (illegally) fired people, including those that were conducting 24 active investigations into Musk’s companies. Shit like this is the result of those fascist actions. Boycott Krispy Kreme!

    This is the kind of fucking bullshit that happens when a company goes public. It is no longer about product and productivity; it is about value extraction. The first place it is extracted from is the labor force.

    Honestly, never trust a company replacing C’s with K’s, especially if it contains alliteration. They will shy away from adding the 3rd K too publicly, but they know what it means.

    Well coincidentally I’ll need to take a 15 minute shit around the time when my 15 minute break used to be.
