    It would be, yeah, and a lot of people here do work 60+ hrs because our country fucking sucks, but that’s not at all the norm for most jobs. If anything, most places that can swing it try to keep you under the hour threshold to qualify as full time (30 hrs in a week or 130 hrs in a month) so they don’t have to offer you benefits like health insurance or vacation days… so most low-wage workers have multiple jobs and work more than 60 hrs, but still have to pay for their own health insurance or do without it.

    I’m not a big fan of mocking exploitation of the working class, regardless where they are from. You have it objectively better, act like it instead of punching down.
