i genuinely think these people just don't understand that chatgpt can't pick fruits. is this like hard to understand? how are you going to automate?
also most people on medicaid are already working do you want people to work a second or a thir... yeah actually they probably want that. they probably want to bring back 12 hour shifts too.
A normal part of American politics is always forgetting that someone has to actually do the work...and you have to pay them. They think people having jobs is rich people just doing us a favor.
Tomato harvesting in Xinjiang is almost 100% automated… but that requires large amounts of investment and a plan that extends beyond next quarter, so not gonna happen.
You misunderstand. They want to automate the office jobs and indoor jobs. The crops will be picked by hand.
12 hour shifts aren’t a thing for you? They’re kind of the norm in Guatemala lol
Might depend on industry but 12 hour shifts are pretty common in the US too.
When I worked ag normal days were 16-18 hours during harvest
Even with my indoor job 12 hour shifts are the norm
pretty much depends on the industry but here an average office job is usually 8 to 10 hours, 6 days a week. i was talking about the US where they want to repeal the fair labor standards act which sets the standard hours for most job to 8 hours. the employer can force you to work overtime but they have to pay you at least double your usual salary.
Only on holidays, overtime is time and a half in most places
