Almost all jobs in America...
My god. You poor souls. Its illegal to do that here. Even the most demanding "squeeze every minute out of the worker" jobs don't do that. 30 min out of your 8 hours is reserved for lunch and lunch is payed for by the employer (the food as well), by law. 8 hour shift effectively comes out to a maximum of 7.5 hours of actual work.
Yeah it used to be like that here, too. But billionaires have been attacking union power for decades to the point they were able to pull this bullshit
*Almost all non-salary jobs in America
You think most salary jobs aren't giving you specific working hours these days, which generally span 9 hours a day but pay you based on 40 hours a week?
