minus-squaresunzu@kbin.runlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-24 months agoHow is this my problem? Nobody ask how my budget at home work when I negotiate my salary. Financial viability of a shiti business is the “owners” problem. They never include me when they accounting them profits tho ;) I wonder why dear?
minus-squareaidan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 months agoWell, it’s your problem if they don’t employ you and you need a job I suppose. Or if you just like having non-mega corps in your neighborhood
minus-squaresunzu@kbin.runlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 months ago r if you just like having non-mega corps in your neighborhood If you don’t allow me to underpay workers, mega corps will ruin your neighborhoods, rheee
