    I’d love to see that kind of bullshit being applied on the c-level, but no, it’s always the actual workers who aren’t being efficient

      Don’t join the fucking right wing SDA though, they are to blame for half the shit that’s going on currently. Join RAFFWU.

    As a long time worker of many different jobs, slacking off is the most important part of the job. Even if you like the job. All this will do is burn out all their employees faster than normal and make productivity suffer for the whole company. I’ve worked for a lot of small companies and penny pinching is the easiest way to lose a lot of money in the long run.

    Must be hard making record profits while hiking prices and having to deal with actual employees. Poor foolworths…

    Hence in the upcoming election preference LNP/ALP last. The C-class of these companies will coordinate with these political parties to reduce the influence of employees in the workplace, so they can exploit the excess productivity for there own personal gain.

      Just make sure you put Labor ahead of the LNP and cooker parties since they will be objectively worse. But otherwise, agreed.

        Though put the Greens ahead of Labor. Labor losing seats to the Greens, and having to depend on the Greens to govern, is a realistic possibility, and Greens MPs holding their feet to the fire could provide a counterbalance to the revolving door to corporate Australia.

          afaik, ‘cooker’ has risen as a slang term for the wackier conspiracy theorists:

          From Wiktionary:

          1. (slang, Australia) A person who makes or uses illicit drugs, especially methamphetamine or cannabis.
          1. (slang, derogatory, Australia) A person who is cooked in the head; a crazy person.
          2. (slang, derogatory, Australia) A conspiracy theorist, especially one who is involved in politics.

          Cooker parties means there can be independent parties with uh… fringe beliefs that you may not align with. So it’s good to do research on each party or candidate

      If you’re from the US, it isn’t. The Woolworth part of the company was closed and they focussed on sporting goods, whatever is left of the company is now called Foot Locker.

      “Woolworths supermarkets in Australia and New Zealand are operated by Australia’s largest retail company, Woolworths Group, a separate company with no historical links to the F. W. Woolworth Company or Foot Locker, Inc.”
