There are always exceptions, yet most labour laws exist to correct some imbalances between companies and workers.Originally posted by rah
All it did was hurt people. They didn't want that type of protection.
I doubt it. The conditions that caused these laws to come into being still exist. AFAIK, these conditions have worsened in recent years, as compared to, say, the 1990's.Originally posted by rah
So while I may dissagree with some of the things being proposed (once it's verified of course
) There are a few changes that could be beneficial to the blue collar worker.

wow, can't believe I was that drunk that early in the day. hope I provided entertainment to all involved.
there, of course, are already plenty of ways that companies subvert workplace regulations as is, such as harsh limits on bathroom breaks for Walmart employees but the chipping away of it is probably only going to continue...

I'm sorry, you've called che a criminal and a pig in the space of two posts.
Well, he's called Bush worse. Giving him some of his medicine.

Oh, and if true, I agree with the Bush proposals. Plato and rah show why the arcaic rules regarded overtime need to be junked, especially for federal employees.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Floyyd is right. The sooner Che learns that the better. Then he'll be better able to take care of himself.Originally posted by David Floyd
Sure, why not? As to employing kids, that sounds like a parenting problem, not a government problem, and certainly not my problem.
As to lower wages, people should get paid what they are worth in terms of labor. What they are worth is simply what the corporation is willing to pay them and what they will accept. There's no coercion.Comment

How was that a problem? Would it have been ok if you had paid them on a contract per car?Originally posted by rah
After hours they wanted to hang around and do special projects, (like rebuiding rusted out old classics) It was afterhours so they drank a few beers and really took their time. They didn't feel that they should get time and a half for putzing around. So we made them "quasi managers" and paid their extra time as a bonus calculated on a % of what those special projects for eventually sold for.“Now we declare… that the law-making power or the first and real effective source of law is the people or the body of citizens or the prevailing part of the people according to its election or its will expressed in general convention by vote, commanding or deciding that something be done or omitted in regard to human civil acts under penalty or temporal punishment….” (Marsilius of Padua, „Defensor Pacis“, AD 1324)Comment

We could have paid them a bonus/contract per car but we still would have had to pay them 1.5 for the overtime hours they worked on site. The department of Labor was quite specific. Any hours over the standard workweek on site. Overtime. We were under close scrutiny due to a claim made by a disgruntaled ex-employee for a totally different reason. Otherwise no one would have even know what we were doing.
The claimed that any such arrangments were just ploys to get around the overtime regulations. And since that's what we were trying to do, even though for good reasons, it was impossible to challenge it.

"Any hours over the standard workweek on site. Overtime."
But those hours were not ordered by the employer. Looks a bit overreaching. If people have a party at the office, do they get paid overtime, too?“Now we declare… that the law-making power or the first and real effective source of law is the people or the body of citizens or the prevailing part of the people according to its election or its will expressed in general convention by vote, commanding or deciding that something be done or omitted in regard to human civil acts under penalty or temporal punishment….” (Marsilius of Padua, „Defensor Pacis“, AD 1324)Comment

Partying and working projects are two totally different things. But if done together, it's still considered work.
We even tried making them supervisors for the apprentices, but since they still actually did production work 90% of the time, that was dissallowed also. It's hard to say they supervisors when they have a grinding wheel in their hand.
