How weird that people would fail to jump at an offer like “we won’t pay you, but we order you to come to work anyway”.
I mean let’s be clear, this is working without pay. Even if the government promises to pay them some day, so what? They already broke their promise to pay them on the agreed date; why should this new, weaker “promise” be worth anything?
The way folx roll over for this horseshit makes me want to punch a thousand walls. When someone decides to take six months to pay my invoices, that IS. NOT. OK. – I would go to jail if I tried it at the grocery store – and the reason businesses get away with it is that we are all pathetic, forelock-tugging craven myrmidons whose only ambition is to bend over another inch or two for our corporate masters, and we should be vomiting ourselves unconscious at the sight of one another.
