This is disgusting. It is time to eat the rich and take everything they have.

2. Vile. Which is "evil" spelled backward...

3. this is a suggestion from the richest person on earth

My god.

6. Disgusting.

But I guess that's the kind of business practices that makes one the richest man on the planet.

7. Master Class Dick Move?

I hope he never has a happy day again?

8. Didn't they take away sick leave from some employees?

Ugh.

9. Awful

and no mention of the people who work through amazon and are not employees. Like Amazon prime independent contractors.

10. What?

Like a f’ing Ponzi scheme? Eventually no sick leave is left and then it’s s.o.l.?

11. Bezos is a greedy ass n/t

12. Target told it's employees they can use 14 days of sick time

If they have to stay home because of the virus, or if Target has to close stores or reduce staffing.

This is in addition to the PTO time they already have.
