micro, I worked for 25 years to
finally get up to $22 per hour
and then took a pay cut to get
to retirement age. The office
where I worked was being shut
down. I went from sitting in
front of a computer to driving
the same 170 miles a day, almost
everyday. That was the phone
company. The government
controlled their rates but it
was based on the cost. The more
useless employees they had, the
more they could charge. That is
what happens when the government
gets involved.

the big point that is missed is this:
robots do not get paid (FORCED) benefits, go on leaves of absence, get sick leave or paid sick leave, never complain, do what they are told and work at a steady pace. They are CONSISTENT....

Second, in this article the author states that a lot of people giving feedback state that most employers are already at the absolute minimum number of employees.

Really? Who told those dimwits that??? That is a farce.

A company can always reduce even more. I always had at least one more person than what I thought I needed just because someone might be off work.

Robots don't get sick.

These socialistic idiots better get their heads on soon or there won;t be any of these entry level jobs left, that honestly are not paying too badly for what they are doing.

Did you all know, and I have a friend who is store manager at a Hobby Lobby, that a new full time employee starts at $15.00 an hour PLUS full benefits???

I mean, how good is that? Someone who knows nothing, can show up and go to work in a fairly nice environment for $15.00 an hour plus healthcare, vacation, sick days, etc....

Oh well. Glad I am no longer an employer....
