    You can, in fact, ask that. It’s just that you shouldn’t have to because labor conditions should be regulated by law.

      I asked that when I was being interviewed. I wasnt aware it was abnormal. My boss didnt make a big deal out of it either. I also asked what benefits the position came with. We negotiated on my pay on the spot, which is where i definitely got a bit uncomfortable.

      Labour conditions shouldn’t need regulation, we should just recognise another being’s suffering.

      Though if we are going to have governments, they might as well do something useful.

        We do. It’s just that those that revel in it get rewarded.

          Don’t be ridiculous. Some of them just see additional free time of the masses as bad for the health of their gold hoards. When people aren’t working all the time, they have enough time to think about your gold hoard. /s

        There is literally no other thing that needs regulation more. It’s the entire reason contracts are a thing that exists. If anybody comes to you claiming they’ll set your working conditions based on empathy, that’s your cue to find a different job and a good union.

        Rape whistles shouldn’t need to exist, either.
