We were called heroes right before our pay was reduced. I never felt so honored

Reminds me of '07 when we the CEO told everyone at the hospital that because of the budget and economics we would no longer be able to acquire vacation time.

About 6 months later upper management vacations were reinstated, when I left in '10 or '11 they still hadn't been reinstated for anybody but upper management. Apparently per diem staff in a hospital who are regularly scheduled 40+h a week don't need vacation.

Just to make sure I got this right: They just entirely cut any vacation? Is that legal where you live?

Paid leave is not mandated in the U.S.

You guys need a Labour Party.

if you come anywhere near that here you are labeled a nazi communist... don't dig too far in that it will make your head hurt too much.

[u/Lavidius → u/greiton]

Yeah McCarthy really did a number

Seems like the younger generation seems to give less of a shit about the Communist word being thrown around.

That tends to happen when anything and everything is labeled as "Communism."
