So you’ll pay a livable wage plus overtime everytime you call me outside work yeah?
… and an on-call premium so you are always available
He doesn’t get overpay himself for these hours, why should you? /s
I’m sure this fat greedy fuck would be edible if we slow roasted him, basted with a nice strong chili sauce
Some people think that barbecue - the cooking method where a piece of meat is slowly smoked for hours, often with a flavorful rub or sauce - was invented to make human meat palatable.
Long pig.
These freaks are really bringing me around to the idea.
JFC, as a business owner I 100% not expect my employees to be reachable after hours. Why do these idiots don’t understand the basic principle: happy employee is productive employee. Understanding life happens and work is ‘just’ work. Give and take equally, be reasonable about stuff - basic human empathy… I hold my own personal time in high regard, it would be insane not to hold other people’s personal time in high regard too.
If he were my boss I’d ignore him during work hours too, tbh.
Up up with the workers
Yeah yeah!
Down down with the bosses
Boom boom!
SLAM! So effective. I’m thankful it’s utterly useless in this case though.
Oh that’s employees boss. We’re the majority actually. And if you stop us from organizing or voting we’re still the majority, just angrier.
what if you have to get a hold of them at two in the morning
People sometimes accuse me of being cynical, and yet here I was giving this guy the benefit of the doubt, thinking his objection might be that we don’t need such a rule because employees already had the right to not answer the phone by nature and tradition.
More context as to how much of a garbage human O’Leary is. https://www.avclub.com/shark-tanks-mr-wonderful-helped-kill-the-educational-1829339516
After reading that, I think calling O’Leary a garbage human is an insult to garbage everywhere.
You can actually generate power with garbage… This guy is a net negative on humanity.
Not-slave owners?
That dude is a great illustration what Engels meant by comparing slavery to wage slavery.
My general sense of this dude from Shark Tank is he’s an asshole. After reading about him for 5 minutes, he’s definitely an asshole.
Kevin, seriously, what actual value do you serve to the human race? What do you do that makes life better overall? I don’t mean new toys or new companies that produce more shit, what do you make for the average person that makes their life better? Nothing, is that answer. You had a chance way back, educational software could have been a human life changer… but no, you couldn’t make money on it. So go fuck your self. Vafancullo
It’s time to hold idiots like this guy accountable.
The first time you watch Shark Tank, you might think this Kevin guy is a bit of an asshole. However, if you carefully study his history, his successes, and dig deep into what the man himself is like, you discover that he is, in fact, a piece of shit.
If the prick wants people on-call 24 hours a day then he needs to pony up the wages to match with accompanying extended holiday for downtime.
I’m available for work after hours - 1 week a month, scheduled several months in advance.
I get about 1000€ extra for it, per month. And also 42 days of paid vacation per year, plus unlimited sick days.That’s what this rule would do - force employers to make it worth your while if they need you after hours, and force them to think about whether they really need that.
I want what you have, I’m getting screwed.
Fuck, I get about a 150€ for being on call for a week. I’m getting ripped off.
You guys are getting paid for being on call?!
Worst Canadian in the world, maybe top 5 worst human.
He makes me ashamed to be Canadian.
I’d say Elon Musk too.
