Wage Slaves
“Billy” is out of work, so “Billy” takes a job at minimum wage with no overtime and no public holidays. ”Billy” is better off than when he was unemployed. That’s because, according to Howard, he has more “flexibility” in the kind of work he can accept, allowing him to “balance work and family responsibilities”, i.e., spend less time with his family in order to keep them fed. No, wait, that’s not it. He’s better off because he can have a good working relationship with his employer. Oops, wrong again. Does anybody still believe these lies?
