  • required to continue working without pay because they are “essential”.

    An employer might say this to their employees but it is false. You are not required to work without pay. You can stop working when the payment stops and claim unemployment. You cannot be fired for doing this, either. You can sue for lost wages when this is the case for your separation.

    Many reading this are sucked into a fucking doom spiral and will think “yeah, that’ll never work.” You’re unequivocally incorrect. And if it happens at a place of work rather than to an individual, the case is beyond a fucking slam dunk. Just get like 3 of you to contact a law firm for a class action against the employer, then get every employee you can on board. This would be retirement money levels of settlement. No question. It is egregious and indefensible. The US govt will lose that case every time. Employment lawyers win these cases literally every day. One this big is their wettest fucking dream.















  • My extended family has worked for companies in the Disney umbrella and as part of one’s retirement package, gets free admission to Disney parks for them and family members. They get half price hotels in the area.

    My sister and brother in law make real good money. Over a third of a mil a year between the two of them. They said it was pretty much breaking the bank/almost out of reach. With all that saved, it was about $10k per person for the 5 day trip. $40k vacation. Coulda bought a car.
