Do you not have a contract on how many hours you sell to your job each week?

[–] JustMy2c@lemm.ee 14 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Lunatic Americans have an honor code, who works more hours-competition to maybe one day perhaps get a promotion....

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago (2 children)

No I'm pretty sure you're getting us Americans confused with the Japanese work ethic.

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

At least Japanese work ethic means you die of exhaustion at 28 to become an OP isekai protagonist.

[–] JustMy2c@lemm.ee -3 points 9 months ago

Nope. Japanese go home at EXACTLY 5PM

[–] Facebones@reddthat.com 2 points 9 months ago

Then the promotion goes to some buddy of upper management that's only been there two months anyway.

Americans outside of trades: "Contract"? What's that? Is that like when my employer makes me sign papers saying I can't sue them if I get hospitalized because of their negligence?
