Just following on from this: https://lemmy.nz/post/1134134

Ex-Tesla employee reveals shocking details on worker conditions: 'You get fired on the spot.'

I'm curious about how far this goes.

You can't get fired on the spot in NZ, unless you like, shot someone or set the building on fire or something really bad.

But it seems that in the US, there's little to no protections for employees when their bosses are dickheads?

Also, any personal stories of getting fired on the spot?

Just because it's not legally required doesn't mean plenty of jobs don't offer those. It still sucks, but you're retarded if you think the average american job doesn't provide at least some. Not to mention the fact that states and cities can and do legislate their own minimum wages.
