To ask exempt employees to clock in and out demonstrates that management doesn't trust its employees, which is a failure on the part of hiring/management, not the workers.
This is the poison that kills entire societies.
I have to fill in a time sheet, but I never ever clock in and out.
If someone clocks in and out, they don't need a timesheet. It's automatically recorded.
And if it doesn't apply to you, it doesn't apply to you. There are plenty of people here it does apply to.
If the barrier to becoming an "elite" is that low and you still consider 6-figures a meaningful benchmark in a world that sells big macs for 10 bucks, are you also calling anyone running even a modestly successful small business "elite"?
I'm not even sure I'm engaging with a meaningful political statement here. The barriers to this level of "success" are more reliably psychological, not systemic. You're basically upset at anyone with a career. There are definitely things we need to do to help those struggling, but yelling here is slacktivism.
I don't know why you think making a 100k or higher salary is just "Big Mac money," but you're either larping or exactly the kind of out of touch I'm talking about.
Haha fuck you, no. That's your choice, don't put it on the rest of us.
