Boss pays me minimum wage

>boss pays me minimum wage
>mfw he expects more than minimum effort

Want me to actually work hard? Pay me more.

That's capitalism.

Raises are earned. They are not hand outs.

If you feel that you are worth more than $7/hr, do work that deserves that $10/hr and request a raise.

>mfw entry level walmart employee making $15/hr, part time, 36 hours a week

>Bust my ass and do a damn fine job

Welcome to business

Hang yourself.

>imblying you aren't easily replaced
lmaoing@yourlife

>Want me to actually work hard? Pay me more.

Want your boss to actually pay you more? Work harder.

I put in my two weeks notice today in an effort to eventually never leave my house, ever, by working from home. I recommend you do the same, user.

This.

I neogotiated a $10/hr raise and a new position in the company because I took initiative and shown the company i was worth a fuck.

whats your job coding?

Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.

But if you feel wages are low then throw some migrants out of the shark tank because they'll undercut you

> Want me to pay you more?
> Actually work harder

You will never understand this because you will never be an employer.

...

If you do unskilled work and it actually costs less in the mid and long term to have you replaced, don't expect to make money.
I'm sorry, that's just the way it is.

Companies do what is financially profitable for them.
You can either learn a trade while also working, or go in a field that grants bonuses based on performance from the get-go, like Sales.
I'd say go to University, but I'm not sure that's really possible for Americans.

Entry Walmart make 9/hour, 10 after 6 months.

>be me

>>MFW working as Desktop Technician at 18per hour; 40 hours a week
>>Everyone else gets paid more than me

Should I ask for a raise? Cause I feel like I'm getting fucked here
This is my first 'real' job
(Previous employment was a temp. tax guy, you know.. wave that stupid thing around)

You are expendable; you are replaceable. The moment you act like you aren't either of these things is when you'll have to find another shit-tier job.

You want better pay? Be more valuable.

>best goy detected

>this is how bosses unironically reason

And rightists out there claim class struggle isn't real...

>not stealing from the company

its like you WANT to be a wagecuck
inb4 nigger

minimum wage earners always say this but don't realize he does expect the minimum
if you get fired for not doing shit that means there were a dozen Joses willing to do more

Shit work ethic, you cunt. This is why everyone hates our generation.

The only way you will get a raise if you work harder than the bare minimum, fuckwad.

>Want a raise? Work harder.
ftfy

...

Your'e still stuck there for 8 hours no matter what why not keep yourself busy?

>work ethic
>best goy

Of course a leaf would expect GibsMeDats for minimum effort.

>this is how socialists unironically reason

And leftists out there claim labor in any form is a valuable commodity.

>labour
>a commodity
Found the problem!

>work harder and you will be paid more hurr durr
>muh fake supporting-anecdotes

Everyone including you already knows it doesn't work that way. Next shilling angle?

That's libertarianism for you!

Enjoy the free market.

>working from home

Doing what fatty?

He's paying you minimum wage because you aren't worth paying more. Get a better job if you can actually keep your shit together long enough to manage it.

>be australian
>get 500 bucks a fortnight
>government now wants me to work for that 500 dollars a fortnight
>10.50 an hour
>below minimum wage
>our cuck government has found a loop-hole
>mfw none of this effects me because I'm a university student on the disability support pension
>mfw rorting the normie system that tried to rort me

Seen this before you fucking cunt

paco will work hard for half of your wage and this is why so many fuckers are outsourcing you stupid fuck

$8.50 is more than I get doing nothing at home, and it's at least me showing up to do a good job at what I do and not cut corners out of laziness.

>Raises are earned.

Indeed.

>mfw I get one every 6 months guaranteed for time worked.

Look, every society is by nature hierarchical.
Somebody has to do the accounting and someone has to decide how shit is distributed.
I can tell you that changing "Sir" to "Tovarase" and saying we're all equal does not magically remove the power imbalance between the Overseer of the Cooperative and the worker. In fact, because of the necessarily authoritarian nature of such societies, it widens this gulf, giving the Overseer great influence while ensuring the silence of the ruled majority.
I can tell you this because that's exactly how it went down. Everywhere this was tried.

Mate there's a hundred Mexicans out there that will work twice as hard as you for the same wage.

>no longer get 500 a fornight
>now get 800 a fortnight and still get to attend university
>never have to do cuck for the dole ever

lmao

fuck all you hoes

>Get paid minimum wage
>Bust my ass and do a damn fine job
>Boss decides that I am worth more than minimum wage
>Pays me more and offers me a promotion

Anyone who actually believes this has never held a job. Hard work and competence is rewarded by being made to clean up everyone else's messes and picking up the slack.

The only problem with this theory is if you don't work hard you have no leverage to ask for a raise. But if you thought like that you wouldn't have a minimum wage job in the first place.

this guy gets it

Edgy, faggot. Sounds like you work for the government.

Forever a minimum wage earner lol. You have to take what you want, not expect it to be handed to you.

Work harder to get paid more.

t. recently received promotion on my salary that bumped me up from 50K a year to 60K a year because I worked harder than those around me and made it obvious that I deserved a promotion

Commie scum can literally die starving.

>start your own business
>lie to everyone that you want to give fair compensation when in reality you see them as nothing more than a cost that needs to be minimised

Boss will give you no money if he could get away with it. Its upto government to enforce the rules.

So you worked an entry level position for a major corporation and got asshurt when corporate senpai didn't notice you?

Odd. Being good at my internship got me offered a job and a guaranteed promotion in 8 months to Team Leader.

Maybe it's like there's all sorts of bosses out there.

Repeat thread from last week with repeat gay anime pic.

Fuck you op

>Hard work and competence is rewarded by being made to clean up everyone else's messes and picking up the slack.

not even joking, i know so many wage cucks who get KEK'D like that.

>have friend
>he bust his guts for the company for over a decade
>never ask for anything
>literally has several years worth of day offs saved up
>ask for a day off
>gets it
>upper bosses ring him and ask him to come in and fucking work on his day
>gets made to clean up everyone elses shit all the time
>the perks of getting a promotion is you pick up after everyone else and you get to do other peoples jobs for them

Libertarians don't believe in hierarchy either, jackass. They're anarchists.

Geez, Sup Forums discusses politics and economics like it's 100 years ago!

Read fucking Varoufakis for crying out loud!

>work at Walmart for a long time, start as a cashier but dabble in just about everything

>manager basically begs for me to stay on since I'm the least shit employee and never start any drama unlike all the other fuckos I have to work with

Feels good being done with that job.

ding ding ding. dubs of truth.

nice nines m8.

>internship

he actually auditioned for his employment beyond a 15 minute interview

for speaking the truth? That didn't mean capitalism is necessarily bad

>work at costco
>job position opens up
>people apply
>they rank everyone by time served
>those people get first dibs
>anyone can ask for the print out of applicants

Absolutely zero drama.

Find a better job. You shouldn't be expecting praise and a raise at the waffle house, nigger.

Is getting a raise really that easy?

That's exactly how it works you worthless sack of shit. Just because you're a failure doesn't mean everyone else is as well.

1 post by this ID, confirmed slide thread.

So which jobs have you arbitrarily determined ARE rewarded for harder work? Don't move the goal posts if you're not prepared to plant them again.

Get a better job, or ask for a raise.

>Libertarians don't believe in hierarchy either, jackass. They're anarchists.

Welp, that's the dumbest thing I've seen posted in quite some time. Time for me to take a break from you mouth breathers.

So explain why income, in the American context, has essentially stagnated for decades while productivity (aka working harder) has increased by a large margin?

he can always fire you and hire some one else. its not a employees labor market.

I've worked at two Walmarts and it was full fucking drama, feuding, snark, and petty bullshit from the employees.
These aren't kids doing a summer job, or college kids working through college, it was 25, 30+ year old adults.
It was fucking awful.

At least OP's pic was different I guess. Still a faggot.

You get that in all jobs to be honest.

I make 90k a year working 5h a week on my PC while you're living the american dream eh?

If your boss likes you, and isnt an asian or a jew.

This is what failures and commies actually believe.

Wow, do you realize the minimum wage was enforced by the state? You might now even be worth that much and that's why he wants you to adjust your work to the value they are paying you.

this

>wage cuck at a factory
>we make car parts
>in the place where im at we have to make 90 pieces per hour
>its not hard to do and you still have time to take a fart
>new guy gets hired
>after a few days he starts asking me how many pieces i make in an hour
> i say i make the 90
>next day he starts making 120
>(to do 120 you have to bust your ass off)
>tells the boss how much he is making
>"oh really? if you have that much time then im expecting you to make that much from now on"
>quits after a 2weeks saying he couldnt handle it

>muh CEO salary

this, work != value

Yes. I worked my ass off all the time. I remember working 70-80 hour weeks. I made myself so dependable over time to my bosses/coworkers that without me, they're fucked. They can barely function without me on my days off because I do everything and know everything usually off the top of my head. They almost praise me when I take over. Takes time to do, but the leverage that comes with it is colossal.

My current job I managed to get three raises within 6 months. Increments of 5$ raises.

The only problem with this statement is that there are no "Minimum Working" laws that force shitty employees to work the value of 7$

>t. graduate of the ken lay school of business

please kys

>lying over the Internet

Wew, lad

You must be a nigger.

I worked a Whataburger for less than 6 months before I was in training for team leader.

Became a manager within a year of me starting, making damn good money.

This was while I was taking a full-time courseload at a good university.

I'm working with databases these days and I'm quite comfortable.

tl;dr: If you're intelligent and hard-working, you'll quickly move up at almost any job.

>boss promises promotion if I prove it over the next 6 months
>bust my fucking ass
>says I did what she wanted me to do
>however they think I'd be hard to replace in my current role so they choose someone else to promote

Fuck everything

Technology. One worker can now do the work of ten, so productivity is higher. It doesn't mean you "work harder," it just means technology allows you to produce what ten people used to produce years ago.

Wahhhhh pay me more then I'll work harder! Muh fair share muh living wage

Make yourself valuable, or find another job. I guarantee you there are 100 other people willing to do your job for the same pay, you aren't a special snowflake unless you have a skill or degree you worthless piece of shit.

At least I graduated from school you worthless dropout. Your life is shit because you've failed yourself.

Computers and robots user.

Smartphones and logistics, gps systems, all shit that made our jobs easier.

>getting reverso-peter-principle treatment

fuck that noise. firebomb your employer immediately squire.

>job robot could do

>why am no paid gewd?

Find better job, put in two weeks.

I would had just quit

What you don't seem to realize is that pay increases are not earned, they are given. In the same way that they give you a raise they could also withhold it or barely increase it.

That's when you quit dude.

>all this horseshit.

average worker sees his wage go nowhere in the last 30 years except down in real terms. why? not because his job has magically become "easier" or because he deserves less, but because all his wage increases actually went into the back pocket of the upper management

but continue being maximum goy for your bosses to exploit.

You get paid more based on how skilled and experienced you are. Not how le hard you work(which probably isn't as amazing as you think it is)
