(91,778 posts)...not one concern for the worker.
Just 'adapt' to losing your job, or 'get trampled,' like someone need to remind vulnerable workers of that corporate heartlessness.
I'm in the business of supporting workers, who are the foundation of businesses, and are most often the people who spend their money in the communities these big box stores benefit from in the form of tax breaks and other incentives at taxpayers' expense.
I don't want any big box store in my community which disregards their workers like Dubai has in this instance. At the very least, they should not be advantaging their profit taking off of communities they neglect to provide proportional opportunities for.
Companies do this all of the time. I don't need to support their neglect to support progress. It's a false choice, and an invitation for big box stores to exploit communities they profit from.
