A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Such home visits were not well-received, and bosses were greeted with slammed doors and threats to call the police. But Thierig claimed checking up on sick workers at home was common practice and that they were appealing to "the employees' work ethic."

Wrong. You are allowed to visit your employee at home when you have a very good reason to believe they are faking it. But you visited 30 employees. You’re doing this shit systematically. Even the union is calling you out for overworking people until they get sick. I hope you keep fucking up like this. Labour courts are usually heavily in favour of employees. When they band together the court will rip you a new one.

What you're allowed to do and what you should be doing are two very different things. I live in a bad neighborhood, how about if you're my manager you stay the fuck at work and then you don't have to worry about being jumped by three people with knives, and I don't have to worry about where am I going to hide a body?
