Having worked in an environment helping people who either didn't have either, or didn't know how to use them, and needed jobs...I discovered basically the answer is somewhere between "Wait outside at Home Depot" or "You don't."
Now the question is if they actually pay that or if they interview and say "Well, depending on experience so we'll start you off at $10 and see how it goes." Lol
There's a cynical humor in imagining some poor fast food employees trying to be like "Okay settle down, children, we're gonna show yo--Hey put that down, okay quiet down now PLEASE!" , trying not to lose their minds to a bunch of sugared-up "Braedens" and "McKeinLeighs" who are unaccustomed to listening to anybody that's not living in their iPads. 😂
It's completely boggling. The other longer reply nailed it perfectly. But yeah, conservatism is a really weird ideal in that regard.
It's because it's all "anti big government", but usually they're talking about bringing down social safety nets and building up walls.
They're so obsessed with governmental tyranny (even though they're religiously huge fans of police and armed forces...huh?), but they're completely blind to tyranny on smaller levels, on a domestic scale.
So you usually catch them simping for capitalists instead of opposing them.
"Because one day I'll get to wear the boot! 🤡"
I think they see abuse by bosses, landlords, and the ilk as "paying ones' dues" or something. They'll of course have zero compunction about passing on that abuse if they somehow end up in the high-chair.
So basically:
"Don't tread on me!*
*...Unless you're my boss.
I'm happy I'm at least free to choose my own tyrant among an infinite number of other tyrants, and I'll die talk a really big game to make sure everyone is exploited by private interests instead of government ones!"
There's for-the-people groups like Socialist Rifle Association but they're smaller in comparison.
Heck, gun-fever and the NRA are basically all private marketing schemes to begin with.
I think unifying ideology is also much easier a task for conservative thought, because it's all about "F you, got mine." And "Those that aren't us are trying to ruin everything." And "Eat enough leather and maybe you'll get rich lol."
Leftier-leaning stuff has a "unity problem" because it seeks to understand and accommodate the vast spectrum of human experiences and points of view. Not that that's a bad thing, but it's certainly much tougher and more complex to pitch, and rally, and galvanize.
Conservatives are really good at being chill and most importantly simple for the most part at an introductory level, so they recruit a lot, and then slowly work their adherents into raging, scared, insecure violence-fantasists.
A good example is with men. Leftists groups have a serious deficiency in speaking to and empathizing with masculine issues, and are shocked when normally moderate, but wayward, men are happy to just be accepted...then radicalized, by hyper-nationalist conspiracy theorists with a fetish for sharp geometric symbolism...
...except we're worried the prevailing system will be "Well you gotta find work to justify your existence, lazy peasant!"
And will still plug their ears screaming incoherently about "automation creating more jobs" when we tell them they eliminated all the work.
Many people are confused by two common terms related to employment in the USA: “right to work” and “at-will employment”. This post will attempt to demystify both....
“At-will” is such a double edged sword. It used to be the cudgel to make you fear that you could simply be fired because a manager didn’t like your shoes that day.
But it’s also what allows you to get up, leave, and never come back at any time you choose, and nobody can stop you. They’ve been learning about that side of it for a while now! XD
She just has a violent “Yells at the barrista with ‘Don’t you know who I am? My assistant comes in here every day!’…but is actually an intern to the assistant.” kind of energy.
