Just bringing it up might get the breaks back. But fighting for better working conditions is always the right choice
Reclaim your workplace from the owners!
Better check your state laws. Paid breaks plus unpaid lunch are legally required depending on the state
unions are important
Boycott Krispy Kreme, get healthy.
The donut shops around me are so much better anyway, so even if you don’t want to get healthy, there’s probably better options.
Dedicated doughnut places are insanely expensive here, but Kroger of all places has some quite good cake doughnuts. Their yeast ones suck, though.
in Germany it is required by law that you have a 30 minute break if you work for 6 or more hours, and that is federal minimum. Turbo-capitalism ruins a society
South Australia it depends on the Award (like a default contract for a particular kind of work, it sets minimum conditions)
But at a bare minimum, if you’re working at a shift of 4 hours or more, you’re required to be given a 15 minute paid tea break.
If you’re working 5 hours or more, Add a 30 minute unpaid lunch/dinner break.(*minimum, 1 hour max if scheduled - max as otherwise it’s really just split shifts)
This is similar in California. Tho to clarify, this is a 30 minute break that is unpaid.
ruins a society
Good thing we don’t have one of those.
Is that not what’s happening here? 5 or more hours you get a 30 minute break
Honestly, never trust a company replacing C’s with K’s, especially if it contains alliteration. They will shy away from adding the 3rd K too publicly, but they know what it means.
hey hey
Krispy Kreme actually got in trouble for this once, because a UK based location went rogue and implemented a rewards program called the “Krispy Kreme Klub”.
I get two 10 min breaks in a 10 hr shift
Fuck America.
When your only option is getting fucked over, and you need to play it safe, destroy them one inch at a time.
Be asymmetrical. Be guerilla. Every single day.
Sleep in the cooler. After you huff all the nitrous from the whip cream.
Clean the toilets with bread flour
I think this is actually illegal in most states
wE cAN’t FiNd GOod HeLp!
Well coincidentally I’ll need to take a 15 minute shit around the time when my 15 minute break used to be.
‘effectively immediately’. Fuckers can’t even use correct words.
When does it go into effect?
“Pretty much right now, basically?”
I assume they mean an unpaid 30 minute break but if they live on technicalities you can too
I think its time to kwit.
I feel this.
At my last job (automotive manufacturing: production) we got a total of an hour of break over the course of our 12hr shifts.
You know what really pissed off the managers? When they found out we were rotating through breaks all day long.
Hahaha. Fuckers.Did you make your numbers? Then mgmt can fuck right off
If you get your job done following safety rules etc. why should number of breaks matter? So yeah.
Management: if they hit the numbers while taking extra breaks, that means we could raise the numbers higher and not have to pay them more?
Also management: We need more temps, our turnover rate is terrible! No one wants to work anymore…
I love the circles these standard systems make. My last job would increase pay every now and then because of poor attrition rates. Then they’d increase the standard to match the increase, gaslight anybody who’d complain and then be shocked when the attrition doesn’t change and now the old workers are pissed off.
First eye roll was at ‘Krew’
What’s the problem with the Krispy Kreme Krew?
“you see the uniforms are needed to keep everything klean, the pointy hat makes splashes run off rather than collect on the top!”
That’s too long. We should change it to… wait…
Krunk Korporate Krispy Kreme Krew
now that’s just a typical brazilian laugh on the net
If this is to be believed, does it make an employee a “Krispy Kreme Krew?”
Yes, but please abbreviate to save toner.
Glazed power?
“Dear mngt, the kkk wants privileges again”
