      I would expect that the union lawyer won’t mind that evidence is served on a silver platter like this.

    You love to see someone incriminate themselves while trying to suppress labor rights.

    Somebody is going to get steamrolled by Icelandic labor laws. And it’s not going to be the employee.

    Edit: like this is seriously illegal in Iceland. Also, if you’re going to be a corrupt and immoral business owner (evil really in this case), the number one thing you DON’T do is broadcast your nefarious intentions over a recordable medium.

      Huge balls to write this in reproducible text in a civilised country with labour laws.

        A lot of times immigrants to Iceland in low paying jobs like this do not understand their rights. Wouldn’t surprise me if this guy has gotten away with it before. Possibly more than once.

        Iceland isn’t perfect. If a business wants to get rid of someone, they’ll find a way to do it. But it is illegal to prevent someone from joining a union, or issue threats like this. Companies over a certain size (50+ I think?) are actually required to have a union representative.

    This reeks of the villain monologuing their plan while the hero is helplessly tied to the train tracks. But also Facebook living it for posterity lmao
