@burningonyx charge you? They don't charge you a quarter to use the carts, the quarter is used as a key to unlock them. You get the quarter back if you lock the cart back up.i think you missed that part of the article. From experience though, beung able to sit at some point during an 8-10 hour shift is fantastic. Most fast food chains and retail chains dont let you sit at all, or only during your 10 minute break or 30 minute lunch. Feet problems from it is common.
A. Not really seeing the difference on the quarter thing.
B. It wouldn't work in the US. People would steal the carts anyway. Quarters aren't exactly difficult to find, after all. Now maybe if the deposit was $20, that might discourage the theft, but a quarter isn't going to do anything but make people laugh.
C. You're still missing the actual point: why are we patting these corporations on the back for being less shitty than normal? They're still exploiting labor and engaging in wage theft. They're still corporations, and thus still evil. Should we sing the praises of a fire-breathing dragon who eats villagers because it decided to give the villagers some private time to breed new villagers? No?? So why are we praising this fucking corporation for doing one fucking decent thing for once to its slaves employees?
