holy fucking shit this thread
“As a data guy, let me tell you why you don’t need extra employees to deal with an overwhelming amount of online orders”
Shitting on minimum wage workers is as American as apple pie
you fool you absolute simpleton you do not need extra workers to do extra work in the same amount of time.
Ah yes, the data will save us. When hospitals are demanding nurses do 2x the job that a pre-covid era nurse did, they’re just looking at the data and seeing that it’s actually just a different kind of workflow, not that they’re doing the job of two nurses. The company isn’t just seeing increased profits and going brr. :brrrrrrrrrrrr:
Last week at work we were adequately staffed for the first time in ages and everyone noted how morale increased significantly, but that was because one of the schedule people went a bit rogue and let everyone work that wanted to since most of the staff are float. They’ve since made it clear that they’re going back to running a skeleton crew for no good reason because they clearly can afford the staff and the staff is available. Better to just work your workers to the point of quitting en masse as they have been and hemorrhaging staff.
Fuck the profit motive
