FundMECFS @lemmy.blahaj.zone Nah forcing workers to survive mimum wage is hard enough. Don’t force them to work at the middle of the night.
Have a “petrol station/corner shop” open for emergencies.

What if they want to work in the middle of the night. I miss night shifts.
9 0 ReplyFundMECFS @lemmy.blahaj.zone They’ll still be jobs hiring. Like corner stores in my example.
But I’m willing to bet big money more people are forced to work night shifts they’d rather not work, than wish they were working night shifts.
Not to mention the societal costs and burden it brings on as it heavily impacts various health risks.

Veneroso @lemmy.world Pretty sure they're still working.
Just focused on cleaning and stocking shelves.
But at least not dealing with customers!

Also “doing things” is usually not shopping. The abundant supermarkets next to the train stations let you do all needed errands on the way home from work.

Not sure why retail is any different.
