I was told I should be happy with the meritocracy because I used merit while others in my situation didn’t and they ended up poor because they didn’t work hard
And the people telling me this are the privileged people who never worked hard and are rewarded anyway

One of the best thing about unions isn’t even pay.
It’s protecting your employment from flippant decisions to terminate employees in Right To Work states.
Though the increase in pay helps too…

But calling the sandwich price a “loss leader” is reductive
It was a price point that generated sales that compensated for the reduced profit margin
Don’t get me wrong; $5 in 2007 is not $5 in 2024. But it wasn’t a loss leader throughout the promotion it was the price
