The US has no federal requirement to pay for unworked hours, be they sick or holiday time off work. This is why your people are depressed and seeking guidance from opiods and fascists.
The US has no federal requirement to pay for unworked hours, be they sick or holiday time off work.
“Federal” is the weasel word here. All states have their own requirements, including sick time, holiday time, and how long you can go without a break. Also, I’ve never seen an employer not offer PTO. Even your local McDonalds has paid vacation for full-time employees.
While I wish it was codified into federal law, your implication that nobody has vacation time in the US is patently false.
That wasn’t my implication, it was a statement of fact. You can call it a weasel word if you want but it’s weird given it is true.
Let’s look to maternity and parental leave if you would like, another case where the US is stuck in the stone age…but I am super glad for you guys and how productive you are, it must really help you all bond with your kids.
There’s no federal requirement, yet I still get 3 weeks vacation time, 5 personal days,a week of sick time, and an abundance of WFH. Somehow we manage a good work life balance and still beat out the French in productivity. We’re not even superstar corporate drones. Our office is mostly Gen Z at this point who have no qualms with actually utilizing our time off like some of the older generations.
Sounds very anecdotal and that you are benefitting from all those sub standard non union jobs that have people working two to barely scrape by in the US.
Yes it’s all anecdotal, given that it’s an anecdote. That naturally follows does it not? And no, it’s not including any substandard jobs that you need two of to scrape by. It counts very good jobs that are similar in scope and with at least adequate benefits across multiple countries within the same company.
Yes yes but not everyone gets them that’s the point… a lot of people have those shit jobs and can’t make ends meet because the US doesn’t value people they value money.
I think you’ve lost the entire thread. You’re miles away from the point of conversation. Whatever argument it is you’re trying to make is entirely irrelevant to anything I’ve said up to this point. Clearly people who have shit jobs have zero relevance to what’s being discussed. Neither does any mandated benefit to US workers or lack thereof. At this point I honestly can’t tell if you’re ESL or just illiterate.
you are delusional, ignorant, or a troll. the united states is regularly cited as one of the top 10 or 20 worst countries for work life balance depending on the source. Try learning facts instead of posting obvious lies.
How are you going to tell me how good of a work life balance I have or don’t have at my company that I work for and you don’t? Pretty sure I have all the facts in this case lmao

I’m not sure how exactly how that’s relevant to me or what I’ve said in any way. I have no clue what point it is you’re trying to make or to who.
You not following is not my problem and you not understanding what is being is discussed is apparent.

They have so much relevance, that you overlook willingly. You have lost the run of yourself and the conversation.
