That would kinda suck if they don't change a bunch of other shit.
working 32 hours at $10-$15/hr and having your employer cut you off at 32 instead of 40 so you don't get overtime is not a very fun idea.

The sooner employers learn/accept that no one gives a shit about their business or their clients, the better. We there for money and nothing else, son. If you don't need to be in office, nix it if it makes a more happy, productive worker! Like Jesus. Give up the dying paradigm already. There's no reason work needs to be this homogenized thing.

As a single full time dad with a full time job, I am always busy and always tired. Get us ready for work/ school, work, get kids, cook dinner and do chores, have about one hour to relax, do it 4 more times. It's exhausting

That was before your grandpa had a driver's license.
You might as well complain about the coal mines in Shamokin all closing in the 1940s.

I do 4 day 40 hour weeks and it rules. 10 hour days don’t feel tough at all because you only do four and have three day weekends every week. Hell I end up getting lots of overtime too, love it.

I love my 4 day 40 hour week. Love it. I like the momentum of the extra hours, and with a three day weekend to recover every week? Shiiiiit I can waste all day Friday without ever getting dressed and I still have the whole weekend ahead of me

Looks like the Ron DeSantis playbook for the moral police has made it to Pennsylvania. Have to protect the children from depravity. Wish they were this passionate after every school shooting when kids actually die. But they're strangely silent.

Yes, predictability is key. I worked retail for a very long time and the unpredictability was awful. I loved Christmas season because it meant unloading a lot of trucks, and those shifts were always early morning and predictable.

Four ten hour days. Worked that schedule for about 20 years. You're not going to get paid for 40 hours unless you work the hours. I know there are alot of people that think that if you work four days at eight hours that you're entitled to a free 8 hours of pay. Employers will not tolerate that.

Insurance coverage starts at 20 hours at my corporate jobs I’ve had. Can’t say the same for everyone of course, but that’s pretty standard in my experience. For better or worse.

How tf would that help anyone but people in power? Cause I'm 17 working a partime job after school and I still work more than 32 some weeks cause I need the money. There's no way that the average person could survive comfortably on 32 hours if people are already needing 2 jobs to make ends meet

Because buying it illegally, like many of them do, won't harm their lives?

IF they’re going to do this, and can somehow mandate it, they also need to mandate that pay should reflect the change and no one loses money in their paychecks. 32 hour work weeks sound great but people are struggling as it is. You really think businesses are going to technically pay people more to do less? This is America! Where your sole purpose in life is to keep the capitalist machine running while dreaming that one day you could become one of the elite.

It sounds like a great idea at first but part of me is wondering after a couple years will companies will only pay for the hours you work? I mean what's really going to stop these mega corporations from doing this? Also how would effect medical care, a bunch of places will only offer coverage if you work a certain amount of hours.

Wtf about almost literally everyone else who can't afford normal dr co-pays or mental health co-pays?
It's not their fault either.

This is just nonsensical to use plastic bags. It drives me crazy. Like at wawa. They want to put one item in a bag and I’m like no, please no bag as I have hands to take it to my car 5 feet away.
