There has drawn a false conclusion. Correlation != causation.
Of course, I can also be mistaken or draw wrong conclusions sometimes. When I read the derogatory categorization related to that, I don’t want to believe that I am completely wrong with my unpleasant feeling.
even unskilled workers on the line for pressing 3 different buttons with 3,000,- net
sometimes really idiots among them
wouldn’t stand a chance in the rest of the economy
can only be glad to have somehow slipped into the plant at the right time
It’s not forbidden to have such a view of people, but I take the liberty to feel sick when I read things like that.
The others press overpaid dumb buttons while I am always performing world-changing actions. A common symptom in self- or external perception. Ask the other side and the opinion about you sounds identical, but one prefers not to ask :D
VW pays and doesn’t just give anything away to employees, otherwise it would mean that these highly paid VW decision-makers would all be even bigger "idiots" because they pay the "button-pressing idiots" so highly! o_O.
People like to speak disparagingly about other professions without really knowing them as a whole while at the same time naturally presenting themselves as an irreplaceable pillar of the institution, of course underpaid. :D:D
Life gets easier if you identify someone else as the guilty fool. By the way: The worst are overpaid teachers with too many holidays, naturally lazy civil servants, and also the self-employed, who can deduct everything anyway. All these well-known, flat phrases from people who have never really done it themselves and only want to improve their dull feelings that way. ugh.
Real idiots sit in often bloated mediocre "management" and babble so disparagingly about their foot soldiers. There is a nice story about an eight in rowing, where management replaces more and more rowers with additional coxswains until in the end only one rower remains but there are 8 coxswains in the boat. They even throw the last guilty rower out :D..........
That doesn’t come from me either, but from other plant employees I know – so why shouldn’t I be allowed to quote that word for word?
Sure... from others..., never experienced it yourself? Just dump a bucket of manure over these unknowns, then maybe I’ll feel better about it someday too.
And honestly, 3 shifts with piecework has to be paid. Sleep disorders are the mildest thing in this job. Life expectancy 10 years less, cardiovascular diseases, cancer risk, etc. Much higher than for normal workers.
That’s right!
If you’ve never worked shifts, you don’t know any better and should better keep your mouth shut about it instead of babbling. Shift work is family-unfriendly, harmful to health and social life. If it were all so great and easy, then just do it yourself :D
But now blaming the VW employee for the housing shortage is too easy said.
No, that’s arrogant and contemptuous, and the quoted buddies are not to blame, of course, they are victims of the overpaid button-pushers.
Still questionable whether the amount is justified. And shift work is by no means an argument.
When is something justified? It is the employer’s offer. What should bother me if such a worker is indeed "overpaid"? The standard that it is always the others who are lazy and overpaid fools is boring.
Or what should the police officers say, who for 0.80 - 3 euro extra per hour take night shifts, weekend work, etc. Firefighters, geriatric nurses, nurses, etc. not excluded.
In the last two decades, police officers generally (not everyone!) have received significant salary upgrades through drastic changes in the career system, which have not occurred elsewhere. Nevertheless, one may ask the same question about fair pay for them just as elsewhere. Unfortunately, less money goes into shift work there as well.
