I downloaded TikTok app after seeing enough ads for it and it reminds me of old school YTMND so I get a little nostalgia endorphins from using it.

10-30 second videos is about all the attention span I can handle now and I swipe past half of them without watching the entire thin anyway

You should tell them.

I DMed the bloomberg guy the whole story but he went to bed and hasn't gotten back to me so far. I figured that it was common knowledge that people are absolutely hosed in these jobs and I was floored that some guy getting 10 bucks more an hour getting a snobby email is a mini-scandal.

Also everythings under NDAs and that poo poo scares people who would take a cross-country traveling job for 15. Its not like you are going to keep paying rent on 15 a week, so you had people give up everything because they thought they'd made it and were with apple and set. Meanwhile it was whoever had a combat record/kissed rear end enough that got promoted. To be fair, if you were the right person at the right time, you could go from operator to regional in about four months. The flip side being you had complete morons with vast authority feeling pretty powerful after rocketing up the chain.

edit:
the lols are flooding back

They had the fire marshal show up and we all practiced with a digital fire extinguisher thing and he explained to us the importance of never fueling a vehicle with the engine running. The next day we are shown the vehicles, they didn't and would never have extinguishers. Also, we were told that we "misheard" the fire marshal and that it was mandatory that we NEVER turn the vehicle off, unless at the storage site.

apple did something to gently caress with GPS at the gateway site. In google location history, it would show all my time as being in the SF bay.

Told by a regional manager while he talked to my team to run down carjackers, "apple would protect you".

Also, "your life is not worth the cost of this machine". This was the guy that promoted the boss that raped someone.

Lol, he also decided that we did dirt roads (apple only wants paved roads), which we did in the loving Mojave (california city is a trip dudes), until apple wanted to know what the gently caress he was thinking. He was further promoted.

Alobar posted:

On my final shift of the shift, the sous chef (or w/e the gently caress he was) comes out of the walk-in like "yo, man, check this out, I've never seen this before." The company put the worker who packed the tomatoes on the side of case and it looks like a mugshot complete with ID number:



I've seen some weird things in this industry, but that's definitely the eeriest/scariest thing I've seen on the job.


Edit: I can definitely see someone bragging about being progressive because they're buying a product made from *female* slave labor. Especially in SF. I don't know why this city has the reputation it does because all I see is a capitalist wasteland.

"OK guys welcome to California. Well Pedro since you're from Bolivia you're getting $2 a day. And Bjorn, congrats you're from Norway so here's $360 for the same day's work... What!? That's fair! That's how labour laws work right!?"

California has some of the strictest, if not the strictest, overtime laws in the US. It make sense that they would try to scam young, desparate workers from other states who probably don't know any better.

dont tell them about academia where 60+ hour work weeks are expected for poverty wages to secure that sweet sweet faculty position that will fill your life with 60+ hour work weeks with the constant stress of publish or perish and securing funding for your work in an increasingly small pool of public funding

cause uh theres no overtime there from what i hear

e: yeah exploiting young desperate workers sounds like grad school lol
