Unstoppable Workweek Power..

I wouldn’t drive myself to death for 12 dollars an hour.

$11 an hour and taxes still need to be taken out. Oof

Fenceless work camps.

For a regular 40 hour workweek, where OT is calculated at time and a half, I come to… $9/hr.

Somebody call a rape crisis center for this poor child. They need help.

14.22 hours every day for 7 days at $11.62 NOPE

Not to kink shame, but fetishizing accelerating your own demise through unsustainable work-life balance seems not to be evolutionarily selected for.

I did something similar when I was delivering pizzas a million years ago. $7.25/hr back then. I did that for two weeks and the owner called me up just to make sure I was okay. And to ask me not to do it again. He was a good guy. He was a little miffed about paying out so much OT, but he genuinely worried about his employees too.

Turns out I was not okay, I was extremely depressed, and I was coping by working too much.

Killing yourself for $11.6/hr? Why?

It’s worse than $11 and change – after 40 hours, they should be getting time and a half. In most states, I’m assuming US, this is $9 an hour before taxes.

Likely this is rage bait.

Once upon a time I worked 80 hours for a company that thanked me by “giving me a week’s worth of lieu days” that I could never use.

I wasn’t being paid well, otherwise it might have been worth it to sue them. Instead it was a lesson in not working for assholes.

Gross is absolutely correct that is certainly gross 

I would quit if I made that in 40.

14 hours per day, 7 days a week, for 11:50 per hour? No OT? And Danielle thinks that a good thing?

These were the conditions that made Marx and Engels write Das Kapital….

Broke dollars and hour. 🥲

Ahh! you’re working hard and earning well!

I work part time at 3 days a week. I work 6 days in a pay cycle and make a fed hundred more. Poor dude has no life.

I wouldn’t get out of bed for that wage….

You need a new job

*Cries in medicine*

Sleep deprived euphoria is a real thing. A dangerous real thing.

I made more per hour working as a prep and line cook at a restaurant on Turfway Road in Florence KY in 1998. That screenshot is simply sad.

Get fucked. I’m not working 100 hours a week for any amount of money. This person is not going to make it, man.

In my 20s, there was a couple of weeks during the holidays that I worked ~90 hour workweeks which was my regular job (40 hours a week), my bartending job (was another 15-20 hours a week), and then this crazy side gig where we were doing theater pop ups in churches around the city. It was cool as hell and I’m glad I did it but I was a zombie during those weeks and afterwards, I slept for almost a full day.

I cannot imagine doing that much work on a continued basis. Your body suffers.

This mindset of work till you fall over is so bad
